Fredericia vs Copenhagen

Fredericia face a difficult task early in the Danish Superliga as they host champions Copenhagen in a Friday night fixture.

The newly promoted side will be aiming to build on a win last time out and will come into this clash with some confidence. However, the champions are already looking imperious early in the season and should have too much quality for the hosts.

Fredericia News

This is the first-ever top-flight campaign for Fredericia, who were only founded in 1991. Manager Michael Hansen will be pleased with the start his team have made this season, picking up a win and suffering one defeat from their opening two matches.

Having begun their campaign with a 3-2 home defeat to Nordsjaelland, Fredericia claimed a 2-0 win at Silkeborg in their previous fixture. They were already two goals up at the break through Gustavo Marcussen and Emilio Simonsen and held on for the win.

Fredericia are already showing their attacking quality, having scored two goals in each of their matches so far. Two of their last three fixtures across all competitions have also produced over 2.5 goals.

Copenhagen News

Copenhagen have made an imperious start to the season, winning all four of their matches across all competitions so far. They began their Superliga campaign with a 3-2 victory at Viborg before claiming a 2-0 home win in their previous fixture.

The title holders have also carried that form into Europe as they are through to the third round of the UEFA Champions League qualifiers after doing the double over Drita. Jacob Neestrup's team picked up a 2-0 away victory in the first leg before winning 1-0 at home in the second meeting on Wednesday.

Copenhagen often make fast starts and have scored the opening goal in the first half in their last two matches while also leading at the break in both fixtures. Their last five Superliga away matches - stretching back to last season - have produced over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

Copenhagen have never lost in this fixture, picking up three wins and a draw from four previous matches against Fredericia. The draw came in a friendly in July, with both teams battling to a 1-1 scoreline.

Verdict

FC Fredericia v FC Copenhagen

Fredericia already face a stern test early in the season and, having lost their first home game, could be in for a difficult task against the champions. Copenhagen are expected to come out on top here and could earn a win and over 2.5 goals as they did in their opening fixture.

Copenhagen have a knack for making fast starts, scoring the opening goal in the first half in their last two matches, while also leading at the break in both fixtures. Friday's clash is expected to follow a similar pattern.
