Last year, in their 25th consecutive season in the Superliga, Odense suffered relegation and are looking for an instant return. And indeed, they started the season great if we exclude the loss in the Cup, where Middelfart eliminated them in the 1/64 Finals. However, besides that failure in the Cup, Odense won all five games in the 1st Division and are holding the top spot. Even before the start of the season, they were seen as the primary favorite for the title. But after the first five rounds, the bookies see them as a massive favorite, offering odds around 1.4 on them to secure the title.
Fredericia were mostly among the best teams in the 1st Division in recent seasons but couldn't make the leap and finally reach the Danish top-flight Division. This season started great for them as they are second with 12 points after five rounds. This match against Odense will definitely show what they are made of, and with a possible win, they would overtake a top spot from Odense. Due to a good start to the season, Federica are now the second favorite for the title, with the odds around 10.0.
Odense vs Fredericia pick: Over 2.5 goals
Odense started the season great, winning all five league games while scoring 12 goals - 2.4 per game. So, scoring a couple or more goals against anyone in the league is a pretty real scenario. Their only poor performance was in the Cup when they lost after the penalty shootout to Middelfart. Still, they rotated the squad in that match, which is surely the primary reason why they didn't secure a win.
Federicia also started the season great. If we include the Cup game, they won five and lost one. In the domestic league, they are the best offensive team with 14 scored goals, while scoring two or more goals in four out of five matches. Considering what we have seen from them so far, we firmly believe they are capable of scoring against the best team in the league even on the road. Additionally, mainly because of good offense, Federicia were over 2.5 goals in four of the five league games.
In the last five h2h games (friendlies included), we saw three or more goals on four occasions, with both teams scoring every time. Considering all the above, we expect a high-scoring game with both teams scoring once again.

Odense team news
According to the club's website, on 19th August, left full back Aske Adelgaard left the team and joined Go Ahead Eagles. Last year, the 20-year-old played 18 matches in the Superliga, but he wasn't getting minutes this season, and the club decided to let him go. However, his departure shouldn't affect the team since he got no playing time this year.

Fredericia team news
The duel between Odense and Fredericia will be especially interesting for winger Agon Mucolli. The 25-year-old winger arrived in Fredericia this Summer from Odense and will be highly motivated. He spent most of the last year on loan at Varberg but became one of Fredericia's key players. So far, in six appearances, Mucolli has scored three and assisted four goals.
