- Randers FC are 4th in the Superliga 2026-2027 with 4 points from 3 games. FC Copenhagen are 2nd with 6 points from 2.
- FC Copenhagen are in great shape, unbeaten in 5 with 4 wins and 1 draw. Randers FC have 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss in their last 5.
FC Copenhagen to edge out Randers
FC Copenhagen are the standout favourite for this game at 1.85, while Randers FC are marked at 3.65 and the draw is at 3.85. The FC Copenhagen price is a little short and the away side will need to be very efficient to take the 3 points on Sunday, but for this preview they look much likelier to get the job done and edge out this tight game.
These two clubs have a very different approach to their game, Randers FC are compact and pragmatic, sitting deep and trying to punish mistakes at the other end of the field with their counters and set pieces.
FC Copenhagen prefer to play on the front foot, they press high up the field and try to win the ball back quickly to get in behind teams in waves. Rasmus Bertelsen's Randers FC have been set up this way since the manager took over in March 2023 and have been relatively successful, although it's Bo Svensson's FC Copenhagen who have enjoyed the most success with his high-tempo approach since he took the reins in March 2026.
FC Copenhagen have more momentum
The last time these two sides met was in the 2026 edition of the Superliga Relegation Group and FC Copenhagen won 5-0 at home to make a huge statement about their superiority on that occasion. Randers have failed to win any of the previous 3 home games against FC Copenhagen and history may stack up against them again this time around.
Mohamed Elyounoussi is the danger man for FC Copenhagen, who have been ruthless of late. Their last 3 results read: 2-1 win at home to Polissya Zhytomyr, 3-1 win away to Silkeborg IF and a 3-0 away win over Debreceni VSC. Elyounoussi has 4 goals in 2 Superliga 2026/2027 appearances this season, while he has also scored 5 of his side's 13 goals across their last 5 games in all competitions.
Kasper Junker is the main man up front for Randers FC, but he has only 1 goal in 3 Superliga 2026/2027 matches. In contrast, Mohamed Sankoh has been in beast mode for Randers of late, netting 4 of his club's 9 goals in their last 5 competitive games, so he is another top pick for an anytime goal on Sunday. Our prediction is that the visitors will have too much quality in the final third.
Both sides are in good scoring form
Randers FC are averaging 1.50 goals scored and 0.50 goals conceded at home in the Superliga 2026/2027, so they're obviously a compact, well-drilled unit. Martin Andre Sjoelstad is another player to watch for them in this game, he has provided 1 assist in 3 appearances in the current Superliga season, and they are a little more creative with him on the pitch.
Over 2.5 at 1.65 and Both Teams to Score - Yes at 1.57 look a bit too short, however FC Copenhagen are a match-winning team right now and will be looking to put Randers out of their misery early on. If they can break through Randers' first line, they will have them under pressure for most of the game and they will wear them down by playing in waves.
This is a classic press vs block matchup, but we'll take the momentum with FC Copenhagen in this one and they should get the better of Randers on Sunday. One of the best Randers FC vs FC Copenhagen prediction is to back the away win.
We still see value in the matchup, with FC Copenhagen likely to control the tempo and create the clearer chances.
