Hillerod need to reverse their downward trend
Hillerod sit in 11th place in the 1st Division 2026-2027 with one point from five matches, while Hobro are second with 12 points from the same amount of matches. Hillerod have drawn once and lost once at home in their first two games in the 1st Division 2026/2027, while Hobro have won both of their games away from home so far.
The head-to-head record between these two sides is split at 100% over the last two meetings, with both teams taking one win apiece and no draws, so this one should be competitive.
Hobro have momentum
Hillerod recent form
Hillerod's last two games saw them get a 1-1 draw at home against Aarhus Fremad and suffer a 1-0 defeat away at Vendsyssel FF, so the jury is still out on how they might do in the 1st Division 2026/2027. They have been in poor form in their last five with zero wins, one draw and four defeats, so they're searching for their rhythm right now.
Hobro recent run
Hobro will be very confident coming into this match as they have won four and lost one in their last five, and they've won their last three straight.
- Their latest three results have seen them beat Akademisk Boldklub Gladsaxe 1-0 at home, Esbjerg F.B. 2-1 away and AaB Aalborg 2-1 at home, so they have a real bite to them at the moment.
Hobro will make a compact Hillerod struggle
Hillerod have a solid back four and usually set up in either a 4-4-2 or 4-2-3-1, depending on the game and they are a team who will get forward and like to play an aggressive game. Hobro usually set up with three at the back and two wingbacks, who allow them to control the game, which is a real strength of theirs.
The shape discipline of Hobro should allow them to keep this game under control for large portions, but the way Hillerod play should make this a bit of a spicy game.
Hobro are the slight favorites for this one at 2.65, but Hillerod are close behind at 2.4, while the draw is 3.5. Hobro have the better form and they are a solid, efficient unit who have scored an average of 2.00 and conceded 1.00 away from home so far in the 1st Division 2026/2027, so they are the likelier winner.
However, Hillerod have the home advantage and their result in the head-to-head suggests they have the potential to turn this over, so we're going for the draw option in the result market.
Goals look likely in this game as Hobro have scored and conceded in both of their away games and Hillerod have done likewise at home. Over 2.5 goals at 1.63 and Both Teams to Score – Yes at 1.55 look good bets for this matchup at Hilleroed Stadion.
