Copenhagen are scoring goals but failing to keep a clean sheet: they've conceded 13 goals in their last five matches, including a 4-0 defeat to Aarhus and goals against Viborg and Barcelona. The team scores consistently—31 goals in 19 matches—but their defense is weak even against mid-table teams. The derby with Nordsjaelland is traditionally high-scoring: the teams have traded goals in three of their last five head-to-head matches.
Nordsjaelland is battling for a top-six spot, but their weak defense makes that a difficult task—33 goals conceded in 19 matches. However, they have a chance, as the Tigers are trailing only on goal difference. The team is particularly weak on the road—22 goals conceded in nine away matches—but they score regularly.
The visitors are brash, the hosts are unreliable at the back, and their head-to-head record hasn't seen a dull 0-0 draw in seven games. Both teams are in the playoff zone and will be playing to win, not just hold on.
