Superliga
These teams last met twice in 2024, with Aarhus winning 2:1 at home, while the match at Kongens Lyngby ended in a goalless draw. Looking further back, over the past ten h2h games, Aarhus have been a lot better, winning seven times, while Lyngby have won once.
When it comes to the number of goals, three out of the past ten h2h games ended with three or more goals, while both teams scored in four of those.
Lyngby team overview
Lyngby are a team that often moves between 1st Division and Superliga. They suffered relegation in the 2024/25 season, and then managed to return instantly in the following season by winning the 1st Division title. This season, their only goal is to survive, but that will not be an easy task, especially since we believe they haven't improved the squad. In fact, we believe they got a bit weaker defensively, as central defenders Tobias Storm and Mihajlo Ivancevic left the club and haven't been replaced, at least for now.
Judging from the first game, it truly seems they will have big problems defensively. The royal blues allowed three goals to FC Copenhagen despite the opposing team having only 1.57 xG.

Aarhus team overview
Aarhus had a historic last season, winning their sixth league title and their first since the 1985/86 season! Even though they are not among the main favorites by the bookies to win the title again, it is still early to judge. The club did not make too many transfer moves, but the players who left have been super important last season. Their best defender, Felix Beijmo, and starting right full-back, Henrik Dalsgaard, along with second-best goalscorer, Patrick Mortensen, all left the club. However, they added some interesting pieces in Mikael Anderson, Jens Jonsson, Sebastian Jorgensen, and Rasmus Carstensen. The first two have already found their spot in the starting eleven.
This season, Aarhus had a super interesting start to the season as they lost the first leg of the Champions League Qualifiers to Lech 4:1 at home. Then, they managed to turn things around and win 4:1 on the road (after extra time) and eventually advanced on penalties.
Striker Janni Serra is suspended for the Superliga games and will be unavailable. Moreover, Luka Callo, Richmond Gyamfi, Tobias Molgaard, and Nicolai Poulsen should remain sidelined with injuries.

Prediction
Lyngby went over 2.5 goals in the first game of the season, as they lost 3:2 against FC Copenhagen. We believe they will have massive problems defensively and that they got worse during the offseason in that department. On the other hand, their offense looked really good in the first match. Besides scoring two goals, they created more than enough goalscoring chances, having 2.34 xG! We expect another good offensive display, especially since Aarhus could rotate the squad since they will have a Champions League qualifier game after the upcoming game.
Meanwhile, Aarhus went over 2.5 goals in two out of the past three games, while the third game saw two goals and 2.73 xG. Their defense did not look great in these three games, and we doubt that will suddenly change.
Considering the fact that neither team's defense looked great and all the above, we expect a high-scoring game, very likely with both teams scoring.
3 Reasons why we should see three or more goals
- Lyngby lost the first game 3:2
- Aarhus went over 2.5 goals in two out of three games
- The previous h2h game finished 2:1 for Aarhus
Main prediction -
Over 2.5 goals
