Preview: A Superliga clash under the lights in Viborg
The Energi Viborg Arena will host a tasty Superliga encounter on 15 February when Viborg FF welcome Brøndby IF. On paper this looks finely poised: Viborg sit sixth with 27 points after 19 rounds while Brøndby occupy third with 32, and the betting market is tight — the book makes Viborg slight favourites at 2.45 with Brøndby not far behind at 2.70 and the draw trading at 3.50. The tight odds reflect two teams whose recent trajectories and underlying numbers point to a close, competitive fixture rather than a blowout.
Viborg arrive with encouraging momentum. Their latest sequence shows five wins, two draws and three defeats across the last ten results, and a run of recent victories — including comfortable wins in friendlies and a competitive loss in the Landspokal semi-final at FC København — suggests a group capable of turning dominant home displays into points. The home statistics underline that pattern: Viborg have scored 20 goals at home and conceded 18, they register an average of almost 12 shots per match and post healthy attacking numbers that translate into a high over-2.5 frequency (68.42% of matches). That attacking appetite will be important in front of a home crowd in a compact Energi Viborg Arena.
Brøndby’s blueprint: more shots, more danger but mixed form
Brøndby bring a contrasting profile: they generate more volume — 277 total shots so far and a higher dangerous-attacks average — and they boast seven clean sheets, indicating a blend of offensive intent and defensive solidity when they click. Yet form is a concern; their last ten results show just two wins and five defeats, and away fixtures have delivered few matches where both teams scored — Brøndby’s away BTTS percentage is only 25%. The visitors also know how to beat Viborg, having won the earlier meeting this season 2-0, and they remain a side capable of grinding out results on the road.
Tactically this could be a clash of styles: Viborg’s tendency to open matches up at home, combined with Brøndby’s higher shot volumes, suggests end-to-end spells with moments of danger at both ends. The H2H history tips toward a competitive fixture rather than a low-key stalemate; the August meeting ended 2-0 to Brøndby but the season has evolved since then.

Betting suggestion
Based on the data — Viborg’s strong home attacking profile and high over-2.5 history combined with Brøndby’s higher shot totals but mixed away BTTS — this looks like a match with a solid chance of finishing with multiple goals. My recommendation is a goal-market play: back Over 2.5 goals. It captures Viborg’s prolific home games and Brøndby’s capacity to create chances; in a margin this tight, the goals market offers value over a straight 1X2 pick.
