Denmark vs England prediction and betting tips

Tournament:European Championship

Game time:21 jun 2024, 00:00

There will be a match between the national teams of Denmark and England in the 2nd round of the Euro on June 20, 2024. The first one lost the victory in the battle against the Slovenes, but it may well agree to a draw in this meeting. One point is enough for Southgate’s wards to virtually guarantee themselves the play-offs.

Denmark vs England: key statistics and trends

• Denmark had won 3 times in a row before missing 2 points in the 1st round.
• England had won only once in 5 games before the Euro.
• Denmark wins the first half in 50% of matches, England – in 20% of confrontations.

Denmark – the shape of the team and its analysis:

“The Dynamite” relatively confidently overcame the qualification (although, after the failure at the World Cup, the team certainly didn’t expect misfires like a 2-3 score in Kazakhstan or a 0-2 result in Northern Ireland). However, that was the last round, when the ticket to the Euro had long been guaranteed.

Hjulmand’s wards played undefeated in 2024. Still, there was a goalless draw with a truly serious opponent, Switzerland. And they beat objectively weaker neighbours – the Faroes, the Norwegians and the Swedes. The 1st round was the real test for Eriksen and the company. Christian opened the score in the battle against Slovenia, but instead of putting the pressure on the outsider, “the Scandinavians” played more and more to hold the result at the end of the match – and the fortune punished them for this with a return goal from a rebound.

England – the shape of the team and its analysis:

“Three Lions” were good in this cycle exactly until the moment it was needed. They met the challenge of reaching the Euro in excellent style, failing only to beat a stubborn opponent, Ukraine. Moreover, the team beat Scotland and Australia in friendly matches, and, having long ago secured 1st place, it defeated Italy in October – 3-1.

Then the British seemed to change. They achieved only the draws in the battles against North Macedonia and Belgium, while losing with a 0-1 result to Brazil and, on the eve of the Euro, to Iceland. Only the Bosnians were defeated in June – 3-0. Being at the Euro, Southgate’s wards started against the Serbs. Having scored quickly through Bellingham’s effort, the Gareth-style favourite then played to keep possession and score, and did well to do so.
