Both sides come into the fixture with shaky recent form – Horsens have managed a draw, two losses and a win in their last four league outings, while Lyngby have alternated defeats and draws over the same span. The contrast between their expected goal tallies – 0.5 for Horsens at home and 1.0 for Lyngby away – sets a low‑scoring tone.

Lars's Verdict

Strong
Under 2.5 goals Lost Strong lean Strong · Low‑scoring trend

The model assigns an 80.9% probability to the match finishing with fewer than three goals, making the under 2.5 goals bet the most compelling choice.

Show the maths
The model’s expected goal values are 0.5 for Horsens and 1.0 for Lyngby, giving a combined xG of 1.5. Historically, matches with a combined xG around this level produce under 2.5 goals about 80% of the time, which aligns with the model’s 80.9% under‑2.5 probability. The top two projected scorelines are both one‑goal affairs (0‑0 and 0‑1), together accounting for 44.6% of the probability mass, further underscoring the low‑goal outlook.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — No (one side kept off the scoresheet) Lost 75.1% model probability

With AC Horsens averaging 0.5 expected goals and Lyngby averaging 1.0, the model gives a 75.1% chance at least one side fails to score, ahead of the 24.9% it gives to both teams scoring.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (AC Horsens 0.5, Lyngby 1.0) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 24.9% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 75.1% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Under 2.5 Goals Lost 80.9% model probability

Combined expected goals of 1.5 (AC Horsens 0.5 + Lyngby 1.0) points to a tighter game, with the model giving Under 2.5 Goals a 80.9% chance against 19.1% for Over.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (AC Horsens 0.5 + Lyngby 1.0 = 1.5 combined): 19.1% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 80.9% finishing with 2 or fewer.
Match Result Model

Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has AC Horsens at 18.1%, the draw at 34.9%, and Lyngby at 47.0% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline

The single most likely scoreline in our model is 0-0 at 22.3% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.

Form Guide — Last 5

AC Horsens

DLLW

Horsens’ recent league run reads D‑L‑L‑W, highlighted by a 1‑1 draw with FC Nordsjælland at home and a 0‑2 home loss to Brøndby. The draw shows they can hold opponents, while the heavy defeat underlines defensive issues – both points reinforce a cautious approach that favours few goals.

Lyngby

LDLD

Lyngby’s last four league results are L‑D‑L‑D, featuring a 2‑3 away loss to FC Copenhagen and a 0‑2 away defeat at Randers FC. Both defeats came with multiple goals conceded, but the draws (2‑2 vs Aarhus and 1‑1 vs FC Midtjylland) demonstrate an ability to limit scoring, supporting a low‑goal expectation.

Head-to-Head

In the five most recent meetings, the results have been 0‑2, 1‑0, 1‑3, 0‑0 and 0‑0, with three clean sheets – two 0‑0 draws and a 0‑2 win for Horsens – indicating a history of low‑scoring outcomes that backs the under‑2.5 pick.
