Randers FC vs Midtjylland Predictions

• Both teams have scored in five of the last seven Randers home league matches.
• Midtjylland have scored in nine of their 12 away Superliga games this season.

Wolves can’t be trusted to bounce back with win

Midtjylland lost their top-of-the-table clash with FC Copenhagen on Sunday and can’t be totally trusted to bounce back with a win at Randers on Wednesday. Bo Henriksen has not yet succeeded in getting his team, who have won only one of their last five road games, to perform well in two games in a row.

The defeat leaves the Wolves nine points adrift of the leaders – a touch embarrassing for the coach who said his team should win the league comfortably a couple of months ago. They weren’t helped by the awful pitch at the Parken, which reduced both sides to playing a long-ball style unsuited to their personnel and coaches’ ethos.

Midtjylland are encouraged to be brave and that usually results in goals both at home and away – they have scored in nine of their 12 away Superliga games this season. Randers have been good for home goals of late too, scoring 12 times in their last seven at Cepheus Park Randers and only drawing a blank once during that spell.

BTTS could land by half-time 

Both teams to score seems a good play here and with 45% of Randers’ Superliga home games this season seeing both sides register before half time, we are hopeful of an early result in that market. The BTTS odds are similar to Randers in the double chance market and both would have landed in five of the Horses’ last seven home games.

But while Midtjylland have won only one of their last five away league contests, they rarely lose on their travels, which is why our preferred correct score play fort this contest is a 1-1 draw. Randers have scored exactly one goal in half of their last ten home games and conceded exactly once in 50% of those games too.
