Nordsjælland 1-0 Silkeborg IF result, stats and report

Silkeborg IF put four past a toothless Lyngby Boldklub side that ended the match with ten men, delivering a commanding away victory that flattered to nothing.

AGF claimed a convincing 2-0 victory at Nordsjælland on Sunday, with Emil Rasmussen and substitute Hjalte Boe Rasmussen scoring late to punish a home side that created chances but lacked the ruthlessness to take them.

Silkeborg IF and Viborg FF shared the spoils in a competitive Danish Superliga encounter, with Lucas Thorst Riisgaard's early opener cancelled out by Asker Beck's second-half equaliser. A point apiece does little to flatter either side, and Silkeborg in particular will feel they left something on the table.

St. Gallen had the chances, the shots, and the desire to win this one. Nordsjælland had the composure to take it from them, and that is the difference between the two sides right now.

Lyngby Boldklub have drawn more matches than they have won or lost combined in recent Danish Superliga action. Nordsjælland arrive having won six of their last ten and they will not care about the home crowd.

Nordsjælland arrive at Tynecastle on a five-match winning run in this competition, having conceded just twice. Hearts have not kept a clean sheet in either of their two Conference League matches. Someone has to change their tune on Thursday night.

Silkeborg IF host Horsens on Sunday carrying serious defensive problems and a run that offers little confidence. Horsens arrive with goals in their legs and a point to prove.
