Silkeborg vs Koge tips and predictions

A shoe-in for Silkeborg?

On 66 1st Division points, second placed Silkeborg host sixth placed Koge. With 31 points the visitors are someway behind their rivals.

So the feeling here is that Silkeborg are a class act; levels above Koge and even if it isn't sounding tempting, the short price is where you'll find good value. It's rare that backing a very short price favourite yields a positive return in the long run but this is one of those occasions.

While looking for evidence that Silkeborg will romp through this match as expected, it's worth discussing the respective form of the two sides. The hosts have registered 13 wins from 15 matches. Having less success than their rivals the visitors have lost their last 6 matches, home and away. They should prepare themselves for defeat again here.

The hosts are making the most of a recent purple patch and they've been solving a lot of problems. Silkeborg have scored two or more goals in 13 of their recent 15 matches.

On balance there's little wonder then that the sportsbooks have written off the away team's chances.

Over the last 5 matches between the two teams in this match-up, this home side has won them all. In their last home game Silkeborg had a 2-0 win against Esbjerg.

The sportsbooks' prices indicate that only one side is likely to score due to the undeniable favouritism for Silkeborg. Should it play out as many expect then the No BTTS bet could be sensible.
