Brondby passed up the opportunity to become joint SAS-Ligaen leaders as they were held to a goalless draw at home to third-placed Odense BK. A win would have taken them level on 61 points with Copenhagen, but the stalemate leaves them two behind.

Randers moved up to fifth with a 2-1 defeat of AaB. They went behind to Thomas Augustinussen's 25th-minute effort, but drew level a minute later through Marc Nygaard and grabbed the winner courtesy of Bedi Buval 12 minutes into the second half.

Esbjerg beat relegation-threatened Vejle 3-2 with two goals from Samel Sabanovic [19 and 40] and one from Mikkel Vendelbo. Allan Gaarde [14] and Chidi Omeje [77] scored for the visitors. Jacob Poulsen scored the winner as AGF Aarhus saw off Nordsjaelland 1-0.
