Copenhagen are on a roll as Randers look to frustrate
Momentum and expectations
FC Copenhagen look poised to win the Superliga Relegation Group in 2026 after a fine string of results, which saw them win four of their last five games and draw the other.
Bo Svensson's approach
Bo Svensson has made his mark on the club since taking over as head coach in March 2026, instilling an aggressive pressing game, with an advanced front-three, aggressive full-backs and players flying into tackles and pressing in droves. The home side will look to pin Randers FC back in an attempt to force turnovers and hit their opponents on the counterattack.
Randers' tactics
Randers are a much more reserved 4-2-3-1 outfit, sitting deep, looking to frustrate their opponents and looking to launch counters. Rasmus Bertelsen has done a sterling job at the club since his appointment in March 2023, keeping his side solid at the back, despite some of their poor results this term.
Copenhagen to win the chess match
Copenhagen are heavy favorites to take all three points here at 1.49, while Randers are massive underdogs at 5.81. It is easy to see why the oddsmakers favour the home team, as they sit top of the table with 48 points from 31 games, compared to Randers in fourth, on 35 points.
Every point is crucial in the last few games of the season, so the stakes couldn’t be much higher for this game. Copenhagen are in much better form and are likely to dominate possession and territory, while they also have a superior H2H record to boot, so it’s hard to look past the hosts here.
There is value in goals
Copenhagen are scoring an average of 1.87 goals per home game in this campaign, while they’re conceding 1.27 per match, which is not too shabby. Randers are scoring just 1.07 per-game away from home, while they’re averaging 1.27 goals per-game conceded in the same away fixtures, suggesting this will be a low-scoring contest.
Over 2.5 goals will likely be enough for Copenhagen to come out on top here, and that is priced generously at 1.54.
- Copenhagen are averaging 1.0 goals scored per home H2H clash, while they’re also conceding at 1.0 per-game in the same fixtures, so I’m expecting a close and tense game in Copenhagen on Sunday.
- Jordan Larsson is Copenhagen’s top scorer in the group with five goals in nine games, while Cyril Edudzi has two of Randers’ six goals across their last five and he’s making a real impact at the right time.
- He can get a goal on Sunday, but I’ll back Copenhagen to grind out the win here.
