The outsiders for promotion were local rivals Kolding and Fredericia.
The fight in the middle of the pack was predicted to contended by AB, Herfølge, Næstved, Køge and Frem, while Lolland-Falster Alliancen, Ølstykke and HIK would contend the lower third.
The two newly promoted teams, Skive and Hvidovre were, along with last year's 11th place finisher, Aarhus Fremad, the favorites to get relegated.
