SonderjyskE preview: The main goal is to survive the season
As the newly promoted team, SonderjyskE will only look to secure their place in the Danish Superliga for next season. The team have started the new season with a loss to Silkeborg away from home, but they will certainly have a better chance for a good result in their next duel against Lyngby, who are similar in quality.
When it comes to team news, SonderjyskE will likely be without Ivan Djantou, who was injured in the last game and is deemed doubtful for this one.
Predicted lineup: Flo (GK), Oggesen, Soulas, Gretarsson, Barkarson, Emini, Vinderslev, Nikolov, Klysner, Ingason & Lyng

Lyngby preview: Another struggling season ahead?
After finishing last season just four points ahead of the relegation zone, Lyngby's fans are certainly hoping for a less stressful season this time around. However, Lyngby's quality will likely see them end the season in the Relegation Group once again and they have started the new season with a home loss to Copenhagen.
Meanwhile, Baptiste Rolland, Rezan Corlu, Mathias Kristensen, Marcel Romer, and Enock Otoo are all on Lyngby's injury list at the moment.
Predicted lineup: Storch (GK), Gregor, Bjelland, Lissens, Storm, Winther, Sandgrav, Finnsson, Magnusson, Gytkjaer & Amon

Player to watch: Soren Andreasen
The 28-year-old forward was the second-best scorer for SonderjyskE last season in the second division behind Peter Christiansen, who left the club for Viking. Last season, Andreasen scored 10 goals in the league.
However, Andreasen is behind the new signing Ivan Djantou, who started the first match, while Andreasen only got eight minutes of play. But Djantou is likely to miss this match through injury, so Andreasen should start the game and we can see him proving his worth.
