SONDERJYSKE
The relatively obscure Haderslev in Denmark is my next location as hosts
Sonderjyske take on Vestsjaelland in a mid-table tussle in the Danish
Superleague on Monday night, the winner of which could jump into an
early third place position.
Sonderjyske seem to have turned their home form around lately following a miserable run of home form that had previously extended to twelve matches without a league win on home soil. But towards the end of last season, the home side racked up a much-needed run of four wins on the trot beating Esbjerg 3-1, OB Odense 4-1, Aalborg 1-0 and Horsens 4-2. They continued in similar vein in their first home match of this season beating Bronsby 1-0.
Sonderjyske also took a point off OB Odense in a 1-1 draw in the season opener, but just lost out 1-2 to second placed Midtjylland last weekend. Midfielder Madsen (3 goals) is Sonderjyske’s leading goalscorer and it’s worth considering that Sonderjyske have beaten tonight’s opponents in their last three encounters (all club friendlies by the way); 1-0 at home and 3-1 and 3-2 away from home.

VESTSJAELLAND
Visitors Vestsjaelland are just one place behind their hosts tonight and
level on four points as they look to consolidate their Superleague
status after having been promoted from the 1st Division at the end of
last season.
It’s been a mixed bag of results so far for the new-boys with a 1-1 draw at Brondby, followed by a 0-2 loss at home to AGF, but then sprung a surprise in their next home match against Aalborg, winning 2-1. They may well be depending on their home form to keep them up this season as they make the transition up in level, and they may be thinking about their previous losses to Sonderjyske ever so slightly in the backs of their minds tonight.
