Tomorrow, Saturday 21 September at 2 pm.00 AB Gladsaxe plays at Gladsaxe Stadion against Skive IK. Skive is in third place in the table with 12 points. AB is in fifth place with 11 points.
It is a new struggle that also gives AB the opportunity to get back on track again, after last week’s in many ways poorperformance against Fremad Amager, where not much of AB’s game worked.
Skive comes with plenty of confidence after a 4-0 win over Nykøbing FC at home at Hancock Arena. In fact, it was the third Skive win in a row. A streak as AB is very welcome to break in Saturday’s game. Impressive start by Skive IF , who have added eight new players, which they are in the process of playing into the team.
In previous season played AB and Skive IK Some close games, and both games also ended in draws. In October In 2023, it was 0-0 at Gladsaxe Stadium and in March 2024, it was 1-1 in Skive. AB’s goal was scored by Tim Freriks. Not a very pretty football match on a very difficult pitch. It was aresult that frustrated the AB players, and a game that measured by chances, should have given an AB victory. Disk K’s goal fell after a standard situation.
The referee of the match is Martin Egtat Munch Jørgensen and on the lines Sidsel Fabricius Dall and Emil Laursen. None of the teams are affected by quarantines.
Head coach Joey Gudjonsson is aware of Skive’s strengths and will attack Skive on theirweaknesses.
“We have had a really good week of training with good reactions from the players around the last match, which we think was unacceptable. We conceded three goals in three situations where we lose the ball. We have articulated and worked with this. We have been strong at home, and We need to work on more stability.”
“Skive has started well, and they have some qualities that we have talked about. At certain times, we have to put pressure on them so that they do not have the opportunity to be so direct, s river They can play a lot of long balls from their defense to their attack. We have to try to reject it, but we can’t press them for 90 minutes. So when we don’t pressure them, we have to be good defensively and be well organized with passes across the board as well.”
“With the attacking options we have, there are not many teams that can stop us from scoring goals. So we will attack their weaknesses so that they cannot play on what they are strong at. We have to be mentally ready from the start and I am sure the players will show good performances after last week’s disappointment,” concludes Joey Gudjonsson.
Mikkel Brund emphasizes the importance of the players’ expressions.
”I hope that we come out with an expression that what has happened in the last few games, it will not happen again. We have trained really well during the week with great intensity. So the expression must be better and it is something we can do something about.
Of course, we can always turn some buttons a little and improve compared to the last game.”
“Skive is lucky in this one at the moment and also has some talented strikers who score goals. So we have looked at some of their direct play and prepared ourselves to resist it. If we are to get the win over Skive, we have to come out with something different and something more“, concludes Mikkel Brund.
