HERNING, Denmark (Interstat) — A pivotal Danish Superliga clash is set for Sunday as Midtjylland W hosts rival Nordsjaelland, looking to avenge a narrow loss from earlier in the season.

The visitors enter the match with momentum, coming off a 5-0 rout of Fredericia last Sunday. However, Nordsjaelland’s form has been inconsistent, with a 2-0 loss to Brondby and a 4-2 defeat to Odense preceding that victory. They currently hold a psychological edge, having defeated Midtjylland 1-0 in the teams’ last meeting on Sept. 14.

Midtjylland W, meanwhile, is returning to domestic play after a tough 2-1 loss to AS Roma in a European contest on Thursday. Their recent league form has been mixed, with a disappointing 2-1 loss to Sonderjyske on Nov. 23 bookended by a 2-0 win over Randers and a 3-1 victory over Celtic in European play earlier this month.

According to the Interstat game simulator, Midtjylland W is projected to exact a measure of revenge with a 2-1 victory on its home pitch.

Following this match, Nordsjaelland will face Midtjylland again just four days later in the DBU Pokalen on Dec. 4. Midtjylland W’s next contest is a Superliga fixture at Viborg on Dec. 7.
