In the Superliga match between Viborg FF and Odense BK on 16th February 2024, Odense BK emerged victorious with a 2-1 win. The statistical data for the match provides deep insight into where the balance of play lay and which areas each team dominated.

It's evident from the 8 shots on target by Odense BK, double the number made by Viborg FF, that their offensive play was superior. They proved more skilled at converting possession into genuine goal threats. The result was two successful strikes finding the back of the net. Viborg FF, despite having 10 shots in total, managed only one goal, illustrating a lack of clinical finishing upfront.

The effectiveness of the Odense's defense was evident from the low number of shots on target they allowed, and the fact that the Viborg offense hit six shots off target means that Odense defensive pressure was likely very high. The Viborg side struggled to keep their shots under control, a factor very likely pivotal in their defeat.

Interestingly, while Viborg FF won the corner kicks battle (5:2), something normally indicative of an offensive advantage, they couldn't capitalize on these set-piece opportunities. Odense's defense again came through, managing to shut out threats from corners.

Looking at the foul count, Viborg FF committed more fouls (7), which perhaps indicates a higher level of defensive pressure and might have disrupted their rhythm in controlling the game. Equally, it's noteworthy that despite the higher number of infringements, no yellow cards were issued. It's possible that these fouls were minor infringements or occurred in non-threatening areas, hence no bookings.

Lastly, Viborg's greater number of goalkeeper saves (6 compared to 3 for Odense) provides a snapshot of Odense's attacking intensity. The Viborg FF goalkeeper was kept busier, and despite conceding two goals, his contribution likely prevented a wider scoreline difference.

The match didn't see any red cards or substitutions beyond the conventional three per team, which evenly maintained the playing personnel throughout the match.

Overall, Odense BK showcased their superior attacking and defensive strength. Although Viborg FF did try to create opportunities, particularly around corners and with more shots in total, their attempts were frequently off target, and they failed to convert the majority of their on-target shots into goals.
