Lyngby BK vs Viborg FF Best odds and tips

Viborg FF come into this Sunday’s Superliga fixture unbeaten in their last five games, but they have drawn the last three. The bookmakers make Viborg FF clear favourites for this clash at 1.63, with Lyngby BK available at 4.85 as outsiders. The odds are certainly on the side of the visitors, who are second in the Superliga 2024-2025 with 40 points from 28 games, compared to Lyngby’s 23 points from the same number of fixtures. But Viborg have won only two of their 14 away Superliga fixtures this term, drawing seven and losing five. And they have failed to win at Lyngby in their last three attempts, so there are plenty of reasons to take the double chance here.

Lauge Sandgrav’s three assists in Lyngby’s last five Superliga games have given them an extra spark in the attacking third, but the hosts will still look to set up in a compact shape and try to frustrate their opponents. Morten Karlsen has done a good job since taking over as head coach in June 2024, instilling a pragmatic shape and structure to a team that likes to counter-attack in either a 4-4-2 or 4-2-3-1 system. Viborg FF, on the other hand, play a more proactive, possession-based game in a flexible 4-3-3 system that allows them to transition quickly from defence to attack. Jakob Poulsen, who took over as manager in November 2023, has overseen a solid unbeaten run of five games in which his side have scored and conceded at a rate of 1.71 goals per game on the road.

The last meeting between these clubs, just eight days ago, finished 1-1 at Viborg, which is probably a fair reflection of where they are right now. Lyngby have won three, drawn five and lost six of their 14 home Superliga fixtures, so they are not a reliable bet at Lyngby Stadion. The contrast between Lyngby’s defensive style and Viborg’s high-tempo, attacking game should lead to a chess match of sorts in which the visitors could either lock the game down or be caught in a end-to-end affair. Saevar Atli Magnusson is Lyngby’s focal point in attack, scoring two goals in six Superliga appearances. Yonis Njoh is Viborg’s main man up front with four goals in five Superliga appearances, three of which have come in their last five.
