FC Copenhagen and Nordsjaelland will battle for three points in the final matchday of the Danish Superliga campaign on Sunday (May 25th). The game will be played at Parken Stadium.
The home side will be aiming to build on the comfortable 4-0 away win they registered over Randers last week. Jordan Larsson scored a first half brace to set them on their way to victory while Rodrigo Huescas and Andreas Cornelius scored after the break to complete the rout.
Nordsjaelland, meanwhile, claimed maximum points with a routine 2-0 home win over Aarhus. Benjamin Nygren and Sindre Walle Egeli scored a goal each to inspire their side to victory.
The victory left the Tigers in fifth spot in the standings, having garnered 46 points from 31 games. Copenhagen lead the way at the summit with 60 points to their name.
Copenhagen hold a one-point advantage at the summit and will seal a 16th Superliga title and outrightly become the most successful side in Danish top-flight history with a win. They came into the playoffs with a four-point deficit to Midtjylland but have clawed their way to the summit. They also have the Landspokal Cup final against defending champions Silkeborg to look forward to as they aim for a sixth domestic double.
Nordsjaelland, for their part, are not in the title race but have the not-so-small matter of potential European qualification in their sights. They are two points off Brondby and Randers in fourth and fifth places, respectively.
We are backing the home side to claim a routine victory and a clean sheet.
