On Sunday Aug 28th, Nordsjælland will play host to København in a meeting of these two evenly matched Superliga teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 17 degrees, a perfect day for football. In their last match, 3rd placed Nordsjælland, recorded a 0-2 loss against Silkeborg. Tonni Adamsen struck first for Silkeborg in the 3rd minute on a feed from A. Klynge, then Tonni Adamsen added another in the 15th minute on a feed from Oliver Sonne In the end, Nordsjælland couldn’t muster any offence and Silkeborg ran away with the shutout win. Nordsjælland should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 17 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 5th placed København, recorded a 0-0 scoreless draw against Trabzonspor. Neither Trabzonspor nor København could manage to put one past the goalie. They had 18 and 5 shots on net respectively, but no one could score, and the match ended in a scoreless draw,. København is looking for direction having earned 13 points in their last 10 matches.
This match will be the first time these two teams face eachother this season. Last season København won the head to head battle with 2 wins.
København is glad to have Pep Biel in top form. In the last 5 matches the midfielder has scored four goals. Nordsjælland is lucky enough to have a few offensive weapons, with Mads Kristian Hansen and each having 2 goals in their last five.
