🗞️ Team News: FC Nordsjælland

The FC Nordsjælland manager Johannes Thorup does not have any fitness concerns whatsoever coming into this clash owing to a fully injury-free squad to pick from.

It looks as if Tigrene could go for a 4-3-3 formation this time, handing starts to Andreas Hansen, Oliver Villadsen, Kian Hansen, Adamo Nagalo, Daniel Svensson, Mario Dorgeles, Mads Bidstrup, Mohammed Diomande, Lasso Coulibaly, Benjamin Nygren and Ernest Nuamah.

ℹ️ Team News: Randers

Thanks to a largely full-strength group of players, there is only the one fitness worry for the Randers boss Rasmus Bertelsen to be concerned about. Frederik Lauenborg (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) won’t be in action.

We’re of the thinking that Hestene seem most likely to begin the game with a 4-4-2 formation, starting the game with Patrik Carlgren, Mikkel Kallesoee, Jeppe Kudsk, Hugo Andersson, Bjoern Kopplin, Edgar Babayan, Lasse Berg Johnsen, Mads Enggaard, Simen Bolkan Nordli, F. B. Kristensen and Stephen Odey.

💡 Prediction

Looking at these two teams, we feel that FC Nordsjælland will more than likely get the win and a possible clean sheet when they line up against Randers, who could well struggle getting on the scoresheet.

We therefore think that it’s going to be a pretty comfortable 2-0 margin for FC Nordsjælland when all’s said and done.
