It’s still early in the competition, and it’s perhaps premature to make such conclusions, but I believe both teams have the quality to reach the playoffs here. I am giving an advantage to Sinners in this game, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the Danish side makes a little upset. I am backing Sinners to get a win.
