As the Danish Superliga approaches its climax, all eyes are on the crucial match between Nordsjaelland and FC Midtjylland.
Scheduled for May 20, 2024, at Right to Dream Park, this fixture is set to be a significant determinant in the title race. Here’s an in-depth look at the teams’ form, key players, and match predictions.
Team Form and Standings
FC Midtjylland
FC Midtjylland currently leads the Danish Superliga with 61 points from 30 matches.
They are on a three-game winning streak, having recently defeated Brondby, Aarhus, and Copenhagen.
This run has solidified their position at the top, keeping them two points clear of second-placed Brondby.
Nordsjaelland
Nordsjaelland, on the other hand, is fourth in the league with 56 points. Despite their position, they still have a mathematical chance of winning the title.
However, their recent 1-0 defeat to Brondby was a setback. Prior to that loss, they were unbeaten in Denmark’s top flight since the end of February.

Nordsjaelland will be without their leading goalscorer Marcus Ingvartsen and Benjamin Nygren due to injuries.
These absences are significant, as both players have scored a combined 25 goals this season.
Andreas Schjelderup, a standout performer with double figures in goals, will be available for selection.
FC Midtjylland
FC Midtjylland faces its own challenges with Marrony, Kristoffer Olsson, and Julius Voldby out injured, and Henrik Dalsgaard and Cho Gue-sung suspended.
Despite these setbacks, the team has maintained its form. Adam Gabriel and Ola Brynhildsen are expected to step in, with Franculino leading the attack as the top scorer.
