This season, the Danish Superliga table’s top battle takes an intriguing turn. With five more rounds remaining until the regular season ends, it is already evident which six clubs will qualify for the championship group, and which six will face relegation.

Currently, Aarhus is in the 4th spot on the table, amassing 28 points, which is 8 points behind the leading team, Midtjylland. Their impressive performance in October and November put them in a strong position to compete for the title. Before the break, they participated in the Danish Cup quarterfinals. Despite a 2:1 loss to Brondby, they managed to advance to the semi-finals. Throughout the long break, Aarhus kept their form optimal by engaging in a series of friendly matches.

Conversely, Vejle is struggling this season, being one of the league’s weakest teams. They currently occupy the second-to-last place in the standings with 14 points, only better than Hvidovre who is at the very bottom. Despite gaining 5 points in their last three games, hinting at a potential comeback, they need to maintain similar performance levels to avoid being relegated. Vejle, like their league counterparts, participated in several friendly matches during the break where they showcased decent performance.

Vejle vs Aarhus pick: UNDER 2.5 GOALS

This season, the Danish Superliga is showing a lack of effectiveness, with these two clubs sitting among the group that doesn’t score many goals. Vejle holds the position of the second least effective team in the league, having only netted 16 goals. The visiting team, whilst having scored just 5 more goals, boasts the league’s second best defense, having only conceded 17 goals. In addition to these statistics, historical data also supports this outlook, with only 2 goals scored in the last 3 matches between these clubs. With expectations of a hard-fought match and few goal opportunities, opting for under 2.5 goals seems the most prudent choice.
