The leaders of the Danish Superliga, Midtjylland, will continue their Atlantic Cup group stage campaign on Monday night. They are slated to face the top Swedish side, Göteborg, in Portugal.
Midtjylland has been performing exceptionally well this season, currently leading in the Danish Superliga. Their record so far is impressive, having lost only three out of their seventeen league games. However, the team led by Thomas Thomasberg didn’t kick off their Atlantic Cup group stage campaign as they had hoped, suffering a 1-2 defeat to the Norwegian team, Molde. They are eager to bounce back in their game on Monday.
Göteborg concluded their 2023 campaign ranked 9th in the Allsvenskan, a positive outcome considering they narrowly escaped relegation the prior season. However, the Angels have recently been underperforming, securing only one victory in their last eight league games. They also commenced their Atlantic Cup group stage campaign with a 2-3 loss against Silkeborg on Friday night.
Midtjylland vs IFK Göteborg Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
Midtjylland’s primary strength this season has been their ability to score goals. They have managed to score a minimum of two goals in 12 out of their last 15 matches in all competitions, despite only managing to keep four clean sheets during this period. Their last six matches have each resulted in at least five goals, and we anticipate this pattern to persist into Monday’s game.
Though Gothenburg may not frequently score many goals, it is rare for them to not score at all. In only two of their past eight games has Jens Berthel Askou’s team not managed to score, and in five of those games, there were at least three goals.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals
- Midtjylland vs IFK Göteborg prediction: 2-1

IFK Göteborg team news
Arbnor Muçolli, Gustaf Norlin and Thomas Santos, who collectively contributed 19 goals and assists last season, will continue to provide their services to Göteborg.
Following the concession of three goals against Silkeborg on the first matchday, it is probable that head coach Jens Berthel Askou will make some adjustments to the defence.
Among those hoping to capitalize on this shake-up are Johan BÃ¥ngsbo and Anders Trondsen.
