Hoping to maintain their upward trajectory, Viborg will face off against the faltering Nordsjaelland at Energi Viborg Arena on Friday night for the ninth round of the Danish Superliga.
After a sluggish start to the league campaign with just one point from twelve available, Jakob Poulsen's men have managed to find their rhythm form and are now enjoying a four-game unbeaten streak, bringing them within just three points of the playoff spots. During their impressive run of form, Viborg booked their spot in the next round of the Landspokal Cup by demolishing Horsens 4-0, so they will enter Friday’s rigorous test with a high level of confidence.
Their next challenge comes in the form of FC Nordsjaelland, a side that has definitely lost momentum after a promising start, given that their last five top-flight matches have seen them emerge victorious in only one of those, with two draws and two losses along the way. Nevertheless, Tigres' inconsistent results should not come as a major surprise, given that new players need some time to adjust to their new environment after the club lost several key elements from the previous season.
Viborg vs Nordsjaelland Betting Tips: BTTS
Lately, Viborg have been flying high and it wouldn't be surprising if they caused further headaches for a struggling Nordsjaelland, but goals seem inevitable as both sides possess outstanding attacking abilities. Since the start of the season, the Greens have looked impressive in front of goal, having rattled the net in each of their opening nine competitive matches, and their total of 17 goals makes them the second-highest scorers in the Superligaen. With 15 goals conceded in their first eight top-flight matches and an great scoring form, Viborg have become synonymous with entertaining games this season, as their matches are filled with goals with a current average of four per game.
The same scenario applies to the Nordsjaelland team, who have managed to score in every one of their eight top-flight encounters so far, but their backline has looked fragile lately, allowing 2+ goals in three of their last four games. With no clean sheets to show for in their last five consecutive matches, it’s highly likely that the Tigers' defense will crumble once again against Viborg, who have netted nine unanswered goals in their most recent two games against Horsens and Vejle. When all is said and done, goals seem inevitable in this one, as both teams score for fun but also rarely keep a clean sheet, so we hope the crowd at Energi Viborg Stadion will be treated to a goal-fest.

Viborg team news
Zan Zaletel and Sofus Berger suffered severe injuries in the early weeks of the Superliga season, ruling them out for the majority of the regular campaign, with the latter possibly missing the playoffs as well.
There’s no doubt that coach Jakob Poulsen will field the same side on Friday that delivered a five-star performance against Vejle in their last outing, with Anosike Ementa pushing for a start after netting a brace as a substitute.

Nordsjaelland team news
Despite going through a tough stretch of results, Nordsjaelland can at least boast a clean bill of health, though Kian Hansen remains a major doubt after being forced off in the fifth minute against Randers with an apparent injury.
Mads Hansen, who replaced the injured Kian, was substituted after less than an hour on the pitch for unknown reasons, which could see 18-year-old Levy Nene start at left-back on Friday.
