Viborg FF and Aalborg BK bring round four of the Danish Superliga to an end when they go head to head at the Viborg Stadion on Monday. This will be the second meeting between the two sides in the last one month, with Renato Junior and Anosike Ementa both scoring twice to hand the Greens a 4-1 victory in their pre-season friendly on July 13. © Reuters Viborg continue to struggle for results in the new Superliga campaign as they suffered a 3-2 defeat against Silkeborg when the two sides squared off at JYSK Park last Sunday.
Trailing by three goals at half time, Daniel Anyembe and Jeppe Gronning scored in a five-minute spell to help the visitors reduce the deficit to one goal, but Silkeborg held firm in the final 30 minutes to see off a comeback scare and secure their second win of the campaign. Jacob Poulsen 's men have now failed to win any of their opening three games to start the season, having played out a thrilling 3-3 draw with Brondby in the opening game on July 21, one week before suffering a 3-1 loss at Randers. The Greens' stuttering start has been a far cry from their promising performance in pre-season, where they picked up three wins from their four warm-up games, including a 4-1 victory over Monday's hosts on July 13.
Viborg have come into the new season off the back of a somewhat disappointing 2023-24 campaign as they picked up just 23 points from their 22 matches to end the regular season in the bottom half of the table before finishing second in the relegation.
