1×2 (Full Time Result)
Given Silkeborg U21’s home team advantage and superior ball possession stats over the season, they are slight favorites to edge this contest. However, Viborg U21 cannot be underestimated, as their resilience away from home has allowed them to grind out results in challenging circumstances.

Both Teams to Score
