📋 Team News: FC Midtjylland

There is just the lone fitness concern for the FC Midtjylland boss Bo Henriksen to be concerned with from a near full-strength group. Elías Rafn Ólafsson (Fractured Arm) is sidelined.

We are thinking that Ulvene may well kick off with a 3-4-3 system in the match featuring Elias Olafsson, Henrik Dalsgaard, Erik Sviatchenko, Mads Doehr Thychosen, Joel Andersson, Raphael Onyedika, Evander Ferreira, Paulinho, Edward Chilufya, Anders Dreyer and Gustav Isaksen.

📋 Team News: Randers

From a largely full-strength group, there’s just the one fitness issue for the Randers boss Thomas Thomasberg to contend with. Mikkel Kallesöe (Shoulder fracture) won’t be playing here.

There’s a good chance that Hestene might utilise a 4-4-2 lineup, going with Patrik Carlgren, Bjoern Kopplin, Adam Andersson, Simon Graves, O. B. Kristensen, Jakob Ankersen, Frederik Lauenborg, Lasse Berg Johnsen, Tosin Kehinde, Marvin Egho and Stephen Odey.

💭 Prediction

In our view, FC Midtjylland can and should see a lot of the ball and convert quite a few goal-scoring opportunities.

Conversely, Randers will be up against it to get a goal of their own although we do reckon that they could well end up getting the chances to score, too.

Our tip is for a comfortable 3-1 winning score for FC Midtjylland when the full-time whistle blows.
