• DDWLW

At home, OB’s form has been less convincing, with only one win in their last five home fixtures, alongside two draws and two losses. This contrasts with their overall win ratio of 40% from their last five matches. OB currently occupy 8th place in the league with 20 points, aiming for greater consistency to climb the table.

OB Suspensions & Injuries

OB face a significant challenge with the absence of Jacob Bonde, who is sidelined with a knee injury and remains doubtful for the upcoming clash against Vejle Boldklub. This absence could disrupt OB’s defensive stability, as Bonde has been a crucial part of their backline. His injury may force coach Alexander Zorniger to reconsider his defensive setup, potentially giving Nicolas Bürgy or Yaya Bojang more prominent roles to fill the void.

Player	Injury	Expected Return
Jacob Bonde	Knee injury	Doubtful

The tactical impact of Bonde’s absence could lead to a shift in OB’s formation or strategy. Zorniger might consider adopting a more conservative approach to compensate for defensive frailties, possibly reinforcing the midfield with players like Ismahila Ouedraogo and Rasmus Falk Jensen providing additional cover.

From a betting perspective, the absence of a key defender like Bonde could make OB more vulnerable at the back, potentially influencing the odds in favour of Vejle Boldklub. Bettors should be mindful of this defensive gap, which could affect OB’s performance and stability during the match.

OB Key Players

Noah Ganaus stands out as OB’s top scorer with seven goals this season. His consistent ability to find the net makes him a pivotal figure in OB’s attack. Playing as a forward, Ganaus is known for his sharp positioning and clinical finishing, often capitalising on defensive errors. His partnership with Jay-Roy Grot in the forward line is expected to be a key component of OB’s attacking strategy against Vejle Boldklub.

In midfield, Rasmus Falk Jensen and Ismahila Ouedraogo are crucial. Falk Jensen’s vision and passing range provide OB with creative options, while Ouedraogo’s physicality and work rate add dynamism. In defence, the trio of Nicolas Bürgy, James Gomez, and Yaya Bojang will be tasked with maintaining a solid backline, vital for thwarting Vejle’s attacking threats.

Expected lineup for OB

• Goalkeeper: Viljar Myhra
• Defence: Nicolas Bürgy, James Gomez, Yaya Bojang
• Midfield: Leeroy Owusu, Rasmus Falk Jensen, Ismahila Ouedraogo, Adam Sørensen, Fiete Arp
• Forward: Noah Ganaus, Jay-Roy Grot

OB Tactics and Formation

OB Tactical Breakdown:

• Formation: 3-4-1-2
• Key Forward: Noah Ganaus
• Midfield Pivot: Rasmus Falk Jensen and Ismahila Ouedraogo
• Defensive Strength: Two clean sheets in the last five games
• Notable Strategy: High-possession game with an emphasis on wing play.

OB’s 3-4-1-2 formation enables them to maintain a solid defensive line while exploiting the width of the pitch. With defenders Yaya Bojang, Nicolas Bürgy, and James Gomez, they establish a robust backline. The midfield, orchestrated by Rasmus Falk Jensen and Ismahila Ouedraogo, provides both defensive cover and creative outlets.

Offensively, Noah Ganaus, with seven goals this season, plays a pivotal role, supported by the attacking prowess of Jann-Fiete Arp. The wing-backs, Leeroy Owusu and Adam Sørensen, are crucial in stretching the opposition, providing width and delivering crosses into the box.

Defensively, OB have shown resilience, achieving two clean sheets in their last five matches. Their high-possession style, averaging 53% in their last game, allows them to control the tempo and limit opposition chances, though they need to convert more of their 14 shots per game into goals.

Vejle Boldklub Analysis & Recent Performance

Vejle Boldklub’s recent form has been inconsistent, with two wins and three losses in their last five matches. Their most notable result was a commanding 4-0 victory over IF Lyseng in the DBU Pokalen, showcasing their potential in cup competitions. However, league performances have been less convincing, with a recent 5-2 defeat to Viborg highlighting defensive frailties.

Home Team	Away Team	Result	Competition	Date
Viborg	Vejle Boldklub	5 – 2 (Loss)	Superliga	23 Nov 2025
Vejle Boldklub	FC Copenhagen	2 – 0 (Win)	Superliga	9 Nov 2025

IF Lyseng	Vejle Boldklub	0 – 4 (Win)	Danish Cup	29 Oct 2025
Vejle Boldklub	Silkeborg	1 – 2 (Loss)	Superliga	26 Oct 2025

Recent Form:
Vejle Boldklub’s attack has averaged 2.00 goals per game in their last five fixtures, with Christian Gammelgaard contributing significantly as their top scorer with four goals this season. Despite scoring in every match, their defence has struggled, conceding an average of 2.80 goals per game during the same period. Notably, they have managed just one clean sheet, indicating a need for improved defensive solidity.

Their away form has been particularly concerning, with no wins in their last five away games, resulting in three losses and two draws. This poor away record is reflected in their league standing, where they sit 12th with just 10 points, underlining the need for better performances on the road to climb the Superliga table.

Vejle Boldklub Suspensions & Injuries

Vejle Boldklub face a challenging situation ahead of their match against OB with several key players unavailable due to injury. Damian van Bruggen, who is struggling with an Achilles tendon injury, and Lundrim Hetemi, sidelined with a knee injury, are both doubtful for the upcoming fixture. This could significantly impact Vejle Boldklub’s defensive and midfield stability. The team will need to rely heavily on the likes of Stefan Velkov and Lasse Nielsen in defence, and the midfield trio of Lasse Flø, Thomas Gundelund, and Mike Vestergaard to fill the void.

The shortage of available players may force coach Steffen Kielstrup to make tactical adjustments, potentially altering their formation to accommodate the missing personnel. With Jonathan Amon, Tobias Lykkebak, Clemens Astrup, Tobias Lauritsen, and Jelle Duin also on the injury list, Vejle Boldklub’s squad depth is severely tested. This could result in a more cautious approach, focusing on defensive solidity given the reduced attacking options.

Player	Injury	Expected Return
Damian van Bruggen	Achilles injury	Doubtful
Lundrim Hetemi	Knee injury	Doubtful

The impact of these injuries may also influence betting markets, with Vejle Boldklub potentially seen as underdogs in this encounter. The unavailability of key players could sway bettors towards OB, expecting them to capitalise on Vejle’s depleted squad. However, if the replacements step up and deliver, Vejle Boldklub may still pose a significant threat, making the outcome less predictable.

Vejle Boldklub Key Players

Christian Gammelgaard stands out as Vejle Boldklub’s top scorer, having netted four goals this season. His sharp instincts and clinical finishing make him a constant threat to any defence. Gammelgaard’s ability to find space and exploit defensive weaknesses is crucial for Vejle’s attacking play. Alongside him, Amin Chiakha and Anders K. Jacobsen provide additional firepower, with Chiakha’s pace and Jacobsen’s experience adding depth to the forward line.

In midfield, Thomas Gundelund’s vision and passing range could be pivotal in dictating the tempo, while Mike Vestergaard’s defensive contributions are essential for maintaining balance. At the back, Stefan Velkov and Lasse Nielsen form a solid partnership, tasked with neutralising the opposition’s forwards.

• Goalkeeper: Igor Vekic
• Defenders: Stefan Velkov, Lasse Nielsen, Christian Sørensen
• Midfielders: Lasse Flø, Thomas Gundelund, Mike Vestergaard, Tobias Bach
• Forwards: Christian Gammelgaard, Amin Chiakha, Anders K. Jacobsen

Vejle Boldklub Tactics and Formation

Vejle Boldklub Tactical Breakdown:

• Formation: 3-4-3
• Key Forward: Christian Gammelgaard
• Midfield Pivot: Lasse Flø and Thomas Gundelund
• Defensive Weakness: Conceding an average of 2.8 goals per match in the last five games
• Notable Strategy: High pressing and attacking transitions.

Vejle Boldklub’s 3-4-3 formation under Steffen Kielstrup seeks to maximise their attacking potential while maintaining a strong midfield. Christian Gammelgaard leads the line, supported by wingers Anders K. Jacobsen and Amin Chiakha, who provide width and pace.

In midfield, Lasse Flø and Thomas Gundelund are pivotal, responsible for controlling the tempo and providing defensive cover. Their ability to transition quickly from defence to attack is key to Vejle’s offensive strategy, despite recent struggles to keep clean sheets.

Defensively, Vejle Boldklub have been vulnerable, conceding 14 goals in their last five matches. The back three of Stefan Velkov, Lasse Nielsen, and Christian Sørensen must tighten up to prevent further defensive lapses, especially under pressure.

OB vs Vejle Boldklub Head-to-Head Record
