OB - Viborg
OB showed great promise on Matchday One when they held last year's runners-up, FC Midtjylland, to a 3-3 draw in Herning, and on Sunday, they proved that that result wasn't a fluke when they dealt Viborg a 3-1 defeat in Odense.
The Odense rearguard seemed somewhat shaky at the start, when Yonis Njoh and Anosike Ementa had chances to put the visitors ahead. But the home side managed to turn the tide and took the lead just before half-time when a delivery from Leeroy Owusu was deflected by Sami Jalal right into the path of Noah Ganaus, who steered a strong header into the net.
Swiss central defender Nicolas Bürgy then scored twice within six minutes in the 57th and 63rd minute for the home side, first via a powerful header and since via a half-volley from the edge of the box to put the home side in solid control. Charly Nouck cut the deficit for the visitors five minutes from the end, but OB held on for their first win of the season.
Silkeborg - Fredericia
Newly promoted Fredericia on Sunday recorded their first win in the Danish Superliga ever, when they took a surprising 2-0 away win against Silkeborg, who have had a dreadful start to the season. Kent Nielsen's side went into the season on the back of a series of disappointing test matches, and last weekend they kicked off the season with a 3-0 defeat against Brondby.
Chances were few and far apart in the opening stages of the match, but the visitors still managed to edge ahead after 25 minutes. Patrick Egelund was unfortunate to see a fine effort denied by the woodwork, but Gustav Marcussen reacted quickly to steal in front of Jens Martin Gammelby to head the ball over the line.
Shortly before the interval, things turned from bad to worse for the struggling home side as Emilio Simonsen was given plenty of time and space to run at the Silkeborg rearguard, and he finished coolly, slotting the ball past the helpless Silkeborg-keeper Nicolai Larsen. Kent Nielsen then gave Julius Nielsen, Asbjorn Bondergaard, og Oskar Boesen a chance to shine after the break, but it mattered only a little as Fredericia held on for the win.
FC Norsjaelland - Brondby
Most teams struggle on the artificial pitch in Farum, which for decades has been labelled as the worst pitch in the Danish Superliga. Brondby also struggled to come to terms with the tricky conditions in Farum, but they still managed to open the score against the run of play through Clement Bischoff after 16 minutes.
The Danish Under-21 international was allowed to surge in the box before launching a strong finish into the far corner without any chance for Nordsjaelland keeper Andreas Hansen.
In the second half, FC Nordsjaelland coach Jens Fonsskov Olsen replaced Prince Amoako Junior, Markus Walker, og Villum Berthelsen with Milan Iloski, Stephen Acquah, and Justin Janssen, but the home side still couldn't find a way through a well-organized Brondby rearguard, and despite a host of half-chances for either side in a hectic finish, 1-0 remained the final result in Farum.
