Kolding BK host Esbjerg FB 2 in the Danmarksserien on Saturday, with league points at stake. CheckLive's model favours the home side, giving Kolding a 65 per cent signal strength and classifying that as high, but this is not a foregone conclusion. Esbjerg have shown they can draw matches, so a share of the points is genuinely possible.
Kolding's recent form is mixed: in their last five Danmarksserien games they have won 2-0 away at OKS and 5-1 away at Horsens FS, drawn 2-2 at home to Tarup-Paarup IF, and lost 2-4 at home to SfB-Oure FA and 1-5 away at Aarhus Fremad 2. Esbjerg are winless in that same period, with three draws — 0-0 at home to Horsens FS, 2-2 away at SfB-Oure FA and 1-1 at home to BK Marienlyst — and defeats at home to Aarhus Fremad 2 (1-2) and away at Tarup-Paarup IF (0-3).
The supplied head-to-head sample contains no previous meetings between these two sides, so there is no recent fixture history to lean on. Kolding's matches have tended to be open, with goals at both ends, while Esbjerg have been harder to break down. That is the key contest to watch: CheckLive favours the home side, but a draw would not be a surprise.
