Silkeborg Analysis & Recent Performance

Silkeborg’s recent form has been challenging, with the team securing no wins in their last five matches, culminating in a sequence of four losses and one draw. Their latest encounter saw them fall 0-2 at home against AGF, marking a continuation of their struggle to find form in the Superliga.

Home Team	Away Team	Result	Competition	Date
Silkeborg	AGF	0 – 2 (Loss)	Superleague	21 Nov 2025
Holstein Kiel	Silkeborg	3 – 2 (Loss)	Club Friendlies	13 Nov 2025
OB	Silkeborg	1 – 1 (Draw)	Superleague	7 Nov 2025

Recent Form:
Silkeborg’s attacking output has been below par, averaging just 0.60 goals per match in their last five games. This lack of clinical finishing is compounded by a defence that has conceded an average of 2.40 goals per game, highlighting a key area needing improvement. The team has also failed to keep any clean sheets during this period, underlining defensive vulnerabilities.

Home Performance:
At JYSK Park, Silkeborg’s performance has mirrored their overall form, with only two victories in their last five home fixtures. This inconsistency at home is reflected in their win ratio of 0.40 at JYSK Park. Despite having a 59% possession rate in their recent home loss to AGF, the team was unable to convert control into goals, registering just seven shots.

Key Insights:

• LLDLL

Callum McCowatt remains a crucial player for Silkeborg, although the team needs more collective consistency to climb from their current 10th spot in the league standings. With a total of 18 points accumulated so far, Silkeborg’s focus should be on tightening their defence while enhancing their attacking efficiency to improve their league position.

Silkeborg Suspensions & Injuries

Silkeborg are grappling with a significant list of injuries that could impact their performance against Randers FC. Key players such as Pontus Rödin and Alexander Madsen are doubtful due to knee and hamstring injuries, respectively. Additionally, Alexander Busch is sidelined with an ankle injury, which leaves the defence vulnerable. The absence of Asbjørn Bøndergaard and Sofus Berger further complicates the situation, limiting the squad’s depth, particularly in midfield.

With these players unavailable, coach Kent Nielsen will need to rely on the remaining squad depth to fill the gaps. The likes of Jens Martin Gammelby and Robin Oestrøm in defence, along with Mads Freundlich and Villads Westh in midfield, will have to step up to maintain Silkeborg’s competitive edge.

Player	Injury	Expected Return
Pontus Rödin	Knee injury	Doubtful
Alexander Madsen	Hamstring injury	Doubtful
Alexander Busch	Ankle injury	Doubtful
Asbjørn Bøndergaard	Unknown	About 1-2 weeks
Sofus Berger	Unknown	Early December 2025

These injuries necessitate potential tactical adjustments, possibly a shift in formation or playing style to accommodate the missing players. Silkeborg’s ability to adapt will be crucial, especially in maintaining defensive solidity and midfield creativity. The absence of these key players could influence betting markets, potentially favouring Randers FC, given Silkeborg’s weakened line-up.

Silkeborg Key Players

Silkeborg will heavily rely on the prowess of their top scorer, Callum McCowatt, who has found the net eight times this season. As a forward, McCowatt’s ability to exploit defensive weaknesses with his sharp movement and clinical finishing will be crucial against Randers FC. His partnership with Tonni Adamsen in attack is expected to be a key factor, as Adamsen’s physical presence often opens up space for McCowatt to operate.

In midfield, Mads Larsen and Younes Bakiz are pivotal. Larsen’s vision and passing range dictate the tempo, while Bakiz’s creativity and agility can unlock tight defences. Defensively, Pedro Ganchas and Jens Martin Gammelby are tasked with maintaining solidity at the back, with Ganchas’s aerial ability and Gammelby’s tackling being essential in thwarting Randers FC’s advances.

Expected line-up for Silkeborg

• Goalkeeper: Nicolai Larsen
• Defenders: Jens Martin Gammelby, Robin Oestrøm, Pedro Ganchas, Andreas Poulsen
• Midfielders: Mads Larsen, Mads Freundlich, Villads Westh, Rami Al Hajj, Younes Bakiz
• Forward: Tonni Adamsen

The tactical impact of these key players cannot be overstated. McCowatt’s goal-scoring form is a significant strength, and his interplay with Adamsen is expected to shape Silkeborg’s offensive strategy. Meanwhile, the midfield duo’s ability to control possession and transition play will be vital in dictating the game’s flow. Defensively, the team’s strength lies in their organised backline, which will be crucial in maintaining a clean sheet.

Silkeborg Tactics & Formation

Silkeborg Tactical Breakdown:

• Formation: 4-2-3-1
• Key Forward: Tonni Adamsen
• Midfield Pivot: Villads Westh and Mads Freundlich
• Defensive Concerns: No clean sheets in the last five games
• Notable Strategy: High possession with a focus on midfield control.

Silkeborg typically line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, emphasising control in midfield and fluid transitions. The midfield pivot of Villads Westh and Mads Freundlich is crucial, as they orchestrate play and provide defensive cover. Younes Bakiz and Rami Al Hajj add creativity and flair in the attacking midfield roles, aiming to supply Tonni Adamsen, who leads the line.

Defensively, Silkeborg struggle to maintain clean sheets, having failed to keep one in their last five outings. The back four, including Jens Martin Gammelby and Andreas Poulsen, are tasked with maintaining solidity, yet they face challenges against high-pressing opponents.

Offensively, Silkeborg seek to leverage their high-possession style, often controlling over 59% of the ball in recent matches. Despite this, they need to improve their conversion rate, as evidenced by their recent 0-2 home loss to AGF, where they failed to capitalise on their chances.

Randers FC Analysis & Recent Performance

Randers FC have struggled to find form recently, with their last five matches resulting in three losses and two draws. Their most recent outing against OB ended in a goalless draw, highlighting their current offensive challenges, as they have only managed to score two goals in their last five games.

Home Team	Away Team	Result	Competition	Date
Randers FC	OB	0 – 0 (Draw)	Superleague	24 Nov 2025
Randers FC	FC Midtjylland	0 – 2 (Loss)	Superleague	9 Nov 2025

Recent Form:

• DLLLD

Randers FC’s attack has been lacklustre, averaging just 0.40 goals per match over the last five fixtures. Defensively, they have been slightly more stable, conceding an average of 1.20 goals per game and managing to keep two clean sheets. However, their inability to secure wins is reflected in their win ratio of 0% during this period. Away from home, Randers FC’s struggles continue, having lost four out of their last five away games with a solitary win. Currently positioned 9th in the league with 18 points, they need to improve both offensively and defensively to climb the standings.

Randers FC Suspensions & Injuries

Randers FC face a challenging situation with several key players unavailable due to injuries and suspensions. The suspension of Daniel Høegh, following an accumulation of yellow cards, leaves a significant gap in their defence. His absence for the upcoming match against Silkeborg is expected to be filled by Wessel Dammers, who will need to step up to maintain defensive solidity. The tactical impact of losing a player like Høegh cannot be underestimated, as his leadership and aerial presence are crucial.

Player	Reason for Suspension	Matches Left	Anticipated Return
Daniel Høegh	Yellow cards	1	Unknown

Injuries further complicate Randers FC’s preparations. Oliver Jones and Mathias Greve are both doubtful due to knee and foot injuries, respectively, limiting midfield options and forcing a potential reshuffle. Amin Al-Hamawi’s muscle injury is less severe, with a return expected in a few days, but his absence still reduces attacking depth. These injuries mean coach Rasmus Bertelsen might have to rely on less experienced players, which could affect Randers FC’s overall strength and tactical flexibility.

Player	Injury	Expected Return
Oliver Jones	Knee injury	Doubtful
Mathias Greve	Foot injury	Doubtful
Amin Al-Hamawi	Muscle strain	A few days

The combination of suspensions and injuries is likely to influence Randers FC’s betting odds, as the team’s depth and ability to adapt are tested. With key players missing, the odds may tilt in favour of Silkeborg, especially if Randers FC struggle to find effective replacements and maintain their usual tactical approach.

Randers FC Key Players

Randers FC’s attacking threat will be led by Mohamed Toure, their top scorer with four goals this season. Toure’s ability to exploit defensive gaps with his pace and precision makes him a constant danger in the final third. His link-up play with Norman Campbell, who is expected to start in the forward line, will be crucial in breaking down Silkeborg’s defence.

In midfield, John Björkengren and André Rømer are pivotal figures. Björkengren’s vision and passing range allow him to orchestrate play from deep, while Rømer’s defensive tenacity provides the necessary balance to the team’s midfield dynamics. Defensively, the presence of Wessel Dammers and Lucas Lissens will be vital in ensuring a solid backline, tasked with neutralising any threats from Silkeborg’s attackers.

Expected line-up for Randers FC

• Goalkeeper: Paul Izzo
• Defenders: Nikolas Dyhr, Wessel Dammers, Lucas Lissens, Oliver Olsen
• Midfielders: John Björkengren, André Rømer, Mike Themsen
• Forwards: Elies Mahmoud, Norman Campbell, Mohamed Toure

These key players are integral to Randers FC’s tactical setup, with their individual strengths contributing significantly to the team’s overall performance. Toure’s goal-scoring ability, combined with a robust defensive unit, could be decisive in securing a positive result against Silkeborg.

Randers FC Tactics & Formation

Randers FC Tactical Breakdown:

• Formation: 4-2-3-1
• Key Forward: Mohamed Toure
• Midfield Pivot: Frederik Lauenborg and John Björkengren
• Defensive Strength: Two clean sheets in the last five games
• Notable Strategy: Focus on solid defensive structure and quick counterattacks.

Randers FC’s 4-2-3-1 formation is designed to provide a balance between defensive solidity and attacking opportunities. The midfield partnership of Frederik Lauenborg and John Björkengren is crucial for both protecting the backline and initiating attacks. Their role is to disrupt opposition play and deliver the ball forward to the attacking trio.

Defensively, the backline of Oliver Olsen, Daniel Høegh, Wessel Dammers, and Nikolas Dyhr has shown resilience, contributing to two clean sheets in their last five matches. Goalkeeper Paul Izzo’s performances have been pivotal during these games, adding an extra layer of security at the back.

Offensively, Randers FC often rely on quick counterattacks, utilising the speed and finishing ability of Mohamed Toure, who is their top scorer with four goals. This approach is complemented by the creativity from the wide players, Elies Mahmoud and Musa Toure, who aim to exploit spaces left by opponents.
