Head to Head
Silkeborg and AaB have faced each other on 26 occasions over the past decade. Silkeborg hold a narrow 12-9 HDH advantage.
Only three of 18 previous encounters since 2017 did not see both teams score. An average of 3.2 goals were scored in those fixtures.
Silkeborg Form
Silkeborg come into Friday's Superliga contest after picking up a remarkable fifth successive draw against Nordsjælland last weekend. SIF took the lead in all five matches but were again forced to settle for a point.
Defensive vulnerabilities have been the biggest issue for Kent Nielson's side, particularly at JYSK park. SIF leaked eight goals while failing to win their last three home fixtures against Midtjylland (3-1), Brondby (3-3), and FC Copenhagen (2-2).
Twelve games into the season, Silkeborg sit fourth in the division, four points behind pacesetters FC Copenhagen.
Silkeborg Team News
Silkeborg boss Nielson has no reported injury issues and is likely to retain faith in the same XI that earned a 1-1 draw at Nordsjælland last weekend.
Top scorer Tonni Adamsen will spearhead the home attack.
AaB Form
An inconsistent AaB make the trip to Silkeborg looking to bounce back from a 2-0 home reversal against Randers last weekend.
The Reds have endured a tough start to the Superliga campaign, with defeat suffered in seven of 12 games played. Menno van Dam's side find themselves ninth in the 12-team division, seven points behind Silkeborg.
A poor away record has seen AaB lose five and win just one of their last ten road matches since April.
AaB Team News
Head coach van Dam could make some changes to his selection this weekend. Mylian Jiménez is among those expected to earn a recall to the first XI.
Sebastian Otoa and Nóel Atli Arnórsson remain sidelined for the visitors.
