- Venue: Vejle Stadion (Vejle)
Vejle Boldklub opens their 2025–26 Superliga journey on home soil versus Randers, hoping to set the tone with a confident performance.
After a disappointing previous campaign where they narrowly dodged relegation by finishing the playout phase just a single point above the drop zone, Vejle Boldklub head into the new season with measured expectations and a desire to deliver a more stable ride for their loyal supporters.
In contrast, Randers wrapped up last season in fourth place in the Championship Round but missed out on European qualification after being outclassed 3-1 by Silkeborg in a straight shootout for a Conference League ticket, which means they will now channel all their efforts into making noise on the domestic front.
Vejle vs Randers Betting Tips : RANDERS TO WIN
Vejle didn’t enjoy the smoothest of pre-season campaigns, managing just one win from four warm-up fixtures and exposing some defensive frailties against stronger opposition, while Randers looked more cohesive in their build-up phase, dispatching Viborg, Midtjylland and Hannover 96 before falling short in their final two friendlies. While their pre-season form has already hinted at a higher level of cohesion, Randers are further fuelled by a superb H2H streak versus Vejle, a side they have managed to defeat in eight of their previous nine encounters in multiple tournaments. Given that it's opening day, there's little doubt both teams will adopt a cautious game plan with an emphasis on defensive solidity to avoid stumbling out of the blocks, and as a result, this could turn into a tightly-fought contest where fine margins decide the outcome. Backed by the energy of their own supporters, Vejle will aim to make life difficult and throw Randers off their game, yet the visitors possess the know-how and a strong historical edge that should help them kick off the new Superliga season in winning fashion and build early momentum.

Randers team news
In contrast, Randers have undergone notable changes ahead of the 2025–26 season, losing five players over the summer while bringing in just two—goalkeeper Jannich Storch and centre-back Lucas Lissens, both arriving from Lyngby.
Fortunately, Hestene have no injury concerns ahead of the opening day, giving head coach Rasmus Bertelsen a full squad to choose from.
