Poulsen has AGF Aarhus ticking
AGF Aarhus are clear favorites for Friday’s Superliga showdown with FC Nordsjaelland at 1.83 with the visitors set at 3.8. This AGF Aarhus vs FC Nordsjaelland prediction suggests passing on the head-to-head match result markets and siding with Over 2.5 goals and both teams to score, which is priced up at a very generous 1.6.
Jakob Poulsen is a new breed of coach, who has seemingly installed a structured, set piece-driven game at the helm of AGF Aarhus. The White Horsemen are sitting pretty at the top of the Superliga table with 27 points from 12 games, but the underlying stats show that it’s no fluke.
AGF are averaging 1.67 goals per home game in the Superliga this term and Poulsen’s philosophy of midfield dominance and patient, progressive soccer has made talisman Tobias Bech a constant threat from set pieces and through balls. The Dane has 7 goals in 12 Superliga appearances, but the team effort is even better, with them unbeaten in 5 league games, having won both their home matches. Furthermore, our AGF Aarhus vs FC Nordsjaelland preview takes into account the team's consistent performance, especially in home games.
Youthful Nordsjaelland can be a handful
FC Nordsjaelland are a very different proposition to AGF Aarhus, with Jens Foensskov Olsen continuing to promote an attacking, youthful and high-tempo style. The Farum-based club have won 3 and lost 2 of their last 5 Superliga games.
This matchup should see a battle in midfield like no other, with the compact and structure-first AGF looking to dominate the middle of the field, while Nordsjaelland attack wide and press aggressively. According to other AGF Aarhus vs FC Nordsjaelland prediction analyses, the key battle will be between AGF's midfield composure and Nordsjaelland's pace down the flanks. Alexander Lind is in a purple patch for the club, having scored 3 of his team’s last 7 Superliga goals, but Prince Junior is the most reliable finisher, scoring 4 times in 12 appearances in the league.
FC Nordsjaelland’s away form is a mixed bag with 3 wins and 3 losses in 6 Superliga road games so far this season. For those looking for AGF Aarhus vs FC Nordsjaelland betting tips, it's worth noting that The Wolves have failed to win on either of their last 2 trips to AGF Aarhus, which is why we think the home side will do enough to take the points this Friday.
