Silkeborg IF vs Vejle Boldklub Best odds and tips

Silkeborg IF are odds-on favourites to beat Vejle Boldklub again when the two clubs meet on Sunday in the Superliga 2024-2025. And the bookmakers have it right, we believe, because Silkeborg are in fine form at home, having won their last two games at their stronghold. Vejle are a decent side, but they have struggled on the road this season, winning three, drawing one and losing ten of their 14 away matches in the Superliga 2024-2025.

Steffen Kielstrup’s side have had to be dogged and disciplined to grind out results and that was the case when they won 0-1 at AaB in their last fixture. The Old Town club went down 0-4 at home to Silkeborg just eight days before they travelled to Aalborg. Kielstrup, who took over at Vejle in February 2025, has brought some fresh ideas to the club, but they still sit 6th in the Superliga 2024/2025 with 21 points from 28 matches – a tough season by anyone’s standards. Silkeborg are top of the table with 42 points from the same number of games, so this game could have big implications at both ends of the table with the hosts chasing European places and Vejle desperate to get away from the drop zone.

Nielsen’s men are a patient, possession-based side that can be very methodical in their build-up play. They like to overload areas and have the quality to pick a lock when they have the ball, but they are not prolific goalscorers. Callum McCowatt is their danger man up front, having scored three times in six Superliga appearances this campaign, while German Onugkha leads the line for Vejle with three in six. Keeper Nicolai Larsen is a safe pair of hands for the hosts, who have conceded only 16 goals in 13 home Superliga matches. Vejle will need to be disciplined and get their counter-attacks right if they are to spring an upset at Silkeborg’s fortress. Vejle will sit deep and try to hit on the counter, where Lasse Flø’s marauding runs from right back can provide them with much-needed width. Stefan Velkov has been a surprise attacking threat for the visitors with two goals in his last five appearances, although the defender is not usually a regular in the team’s front two.
