Frem vs Roskilde - DBU Pokalen

The history between Frem and Roskilde lends this DBU Pokalen fixture an extra layer of spice, and when the two walk out at the home ground on September 9, 2026, recent encounters will be on everyone's mind. He experienced victory in his only Old Firm appearance as a Gers player, but Sunday will be his first taste of the fixture in the dugout.

Frem will be keen to seize the initiative and build some momentum on home soil. The visitors will back themselves to cause problems and will not make the trip expecting an easy afternoon. Those who followed Morocco's recent World Cup campaign will recognise the name Ayyoub Bouaddi.

The fixture boasts genuine star quality. With Ismaila Ceesay topping the DBU Pokalen scoring charts at 1 goals, the stage is set for the kind of individual brilliance that can swing a contest. How each side deals with the other's danger men — and who takes their chances when they come — will be central to the outcome. Meanwhile, Ajax's new striker Tolu Arokodare continued his strong start by lashing in a fourth goal in three games in their 4-0 victory away to Telstar.

The fixture has the feel of a coin-flip, and picking a winner with any conviction would require a braver pundit than most. Neither side holds a clear edge, and a 1-1 draw would be a fitting reflection of the balance between them. With positions in the DBU Pokalen table to defend and momentum to chase, neither side can afford to leave anything in the tank. The club are understood to favour a profile closer to Aurelien Tchouameni or a Premier League‑proven alternative rather than Manu Kone.
