This week's What's Worth Watching, features four Scandinavian matches!














IFK Göteborg - Helsingborg
Swedish Allsvenskan Round 14
Nya Ullevi
09-07-2012 at 18.05 BST

Head-to-head (last 10 matches):

IFK Göteborg: 1 victory / 11 goals

       Draws: 4

 Helsingborg: 5 victory /15 goals

IFK Göteborg is still struggling in the lower part of the league, while Helsingborg still has the chance for qualifying for European football next season. Helsingborg is unbeaten in the last five matches, and with their top scorer, Alfred Finnbogason, upfront they will also win this one. Keep an eye on the young striker from Iceland, as he has the abilities to be decisive in this match.


Odd Grenland - Vålerenga
Norway Tippeligaen Round 12
Odd Stadion
11-07-2012 at 18.00 BST

Head-to-head (last 10 matches):

Odd Grenland: 3 victories / 15 goals

       Draws: 3

   Vålerenga: 4 victories / 19 goals

Odd Grenland and Vålerenga are known for their tight matches. Vålerenga is currently positioned in the middle of the league with some distance to the ‘funny’ positions. Lower in the table is Odd Grenland, and they are still close to relegation and will, therefore, fight for every point. Keep an eye on Fredrik Stoor. The back from Norway has played for Fulham and Derby and is with his routine one of the most important players for Vålerenga.









Aarhus GF - Aalborg BK
Danish Superliga Round 1
NRGi Park
13-07-2012 at 17.30 BST

Head-to-head (last 10 matches):

 Aarhus GF: 2 victories / 9 goals

     Draws: 3

Aalborg BK: 5 victories / 14 goals

Friday is the day for the first Derby of Jutland between Aarhus and Aalborg. Aalborg is in serious financial problems and has only brought one new face into the squad, while Aarhus has gathered a strong squad within the last couple of seasons. The Jutland Derby is always worth watching, and can display some great football. Keep an eye on Aarhus’ Casper Sloth. The young midfielder is going to be one of the best in the Danish Superliga!










FC Copenhagen - FC Midtjylland
Danish Superliga Round 1
Parken
15-07-2012 at 18.00 BST

Head-to-head (last 10 matches):

 FC Copenhagen: 6 victories / 20 goals

         Draws: 1

FC Midtjylland: 3 victories / 10 goals

The two teams have often played some tight matches, and thi sone could turn out the same way. Copenhagen has hired the former Anderlecht coach Ariël Jacobs, and it is going to be interesting if he will make a difference. Midtjylland is in a time of transformation and has sold some of the profiles. The first match will show if there is any difference. Keep an eye on the Copenhagen striker, Dame N’Doye. He is a target for clubs as Newcastle United.
