Predictions for Copenhagen vs Horsens
Last season's Superliga champions, FC Copenhagen, play host to newly-promoted Horsens on the opening day of the 2022/23 campaign. The hosts are massive favourites to get off to a winning start but can Horsens cause the upset of all upsets this Sunday?

Copenhagen to Win-to-Nil
We're not only backing Copenhagen to win on Sunday we're also predicting that the host will keep a clean sheet against Horsens. Copenhagen have won four of their last five games against Horsens and have managed to keep clean sheets in their last three victories against Sunday's guests. Copenhagen have won five of their last six matches in all competitions, keeping three clean sheets in the process, while Horsens lost their last game against Viborg 5-4.
Over 2.5 Goals
There is a good chance that we will be treated to plenty of goals on Sunday as the Superliga champions take on one of the newly-promoted sides. Over 2.5 goals have been scored in four of Copenhagen's and four of Horsens' last six competitive and non-competitive outings in all competitions.
