Comparative Team Statistics: Viborg vs AC Horsens

A recent and familiar rivalry

These two met in the league only in August, and Horsens won 3-2 away at Viborg, so there's genuine recent form to weigh alongside the longer history.

Go back further and Viborg have had the better of this fixture more often, including a 4-0 and a 1-0 cup win over Horsens in the last two seasons. The head-to-head record is mixed enough that neither side can claim a clear psychological edge.

The reverse fixture went to Horsens, so Viborg will have some incentive to put that right at home.

Where they sit in the table

Viborg are third with 17 points from nine games, built on five wins, two draws and only two defeats. Their goal difference of plus seven, with eight conceded, points to a reasonably tight defensive record this season.

Horsens are down in sixth with 11 points from the same number of matches. Three wins, two draws and four losses, with 16 goals let in, suggest they've been more open at the back than their hosts.

Viborg's league position suggests more control, but nine games is still a small sample.

Players to watch

Horsens lean heavily on K. Ehibhatiomhan, who has four goals in eight matches, while Jimi Weikko Tauriainen has chipped in three assists in the same span.
