Michael Laudrup's son, Andreas Laudrup scored two times to give his side a victory that helped them rise in the table. Atle Roar Haland's equaliser earned second-placed Odense a point in a 1-1 draw against third-spotted Brondby in the SAS-Liga.
Brondby's afternoon started badly when Michael Krohn-Delhi was dismissed after 27 minutes, but the 10 men nevertheless took the lead four minutes later through Mikael Nilsson.
However, Haland restored parity seven minutes before the break to keep Odense four points ahead of Brondby.
