Preview: Lyngby Boldklub vs. AaB - prediction, team news

Sports Mole previews Monday's Danish Superliga clash between Lyngby Boldklub and Aalborg BK, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

Sports Mole previews Monday's Danish Superliga clash between Lyngby Boldklub and Aalborg BK, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

Relegation-threatened Lyngby Boldklub face Aalborg BK at Lyngby Stadion in their final home game of the Danish Superliga on Monday night, looking to escape the bottom two.

The out-of-form hosts have lost two consecutive games but could suck their opponents into the scrap despite the latter losing just one of their last five fixtures.


Match preview

After regaining promotion to the top flight this term, Lyngby seek to avoid immediate relegation to the second tier in the season's closing weeks.

The Vikings are winless in three of their last four Superliga fixtures, picking up maximum points against in-form Midtjylland in a 2-1 success.

However, that triumph has not instigated any late-season improvement, with successive losses leaving Freyr Alexandersson's team bottom of the standings.

The cellar-dwelling side did seem to have found some consistency on their turf, but a 4-0 thrashing by Odense on May 21 was an unwanted and ill-timed setback.

Lyngby went six games unbeaten at home before that loss, and they will look to return to winning ways with their league status on the line.

Visiting Lyngby-Taarbaek are AaB, third-bottom in the Superliga and three points above the side they travel to on Monday.

Last weekend's 2-0 home defeat at the hands of Midtjylland was the Reds' first in five after hitherto securing nine points from an available 15.

They are guaranteed to end outside the relegation zone after their season's penultimate game, even if a defeat against Lyngby would leave them level with Horsens and Monday's opponents going into the final round.

Oscar Hiljemark's team are unbeaten in their last four away fixtures, albeit after drawing three consecutive games, but another point will be welcome by the side looking to avoid relegation.

AaB have won the last two encounters with Lyngby, finding the back of the net three times without conceding in 2-0 and 1-0 victories.

Team News

Alfred Finnbogason is suspended after his straight red in Lyngby's 4-0 thrashing by Odense, bringing about a change up front for Alexandersson.

However, the home side are not expected to move away from their 3-5-2 approach in the relegation six-pointer.

AaB will be without Kasper Jorgensen, who has accumulated multiple yellow cards, thus ruling out the right-back in the penultimate round of games.

Hiljemark has utilised a 4-3-3 since the start of April, and a switch from that approach is unlikely on Monday.


Lyngby Boldklub possible starting lineup:
Kikkenborg; Gregor, Bjelland, Hey; Storm, Magnussen, Romer, Chukwuani, Finnsson; Knudsen, Gytkjaer

Aalborg BK possible starting lineup:
Mantl; Ludewig, Kramer, Thelander, Ahlmann; Fossum, Hojholt, Ferreira; Bakiz, Helenius, Andersen


SM words green background

We say: Lyngby Boldklub 1-1 Aalborg BK

Lyngby and AaB are expected to score on Monday, but separating both teams could be impossible, and a fourth successive road stalemate for the Reds could be on the cards.
