Denmark – Serbia

The teams will be probing each other’s weaknesses right up until the second half

The opponents for the upcoming meeting in Copenhagen are in the same Ligue A group as Spain and Switzerland. According to the results of the first round in this quartet, two goals were scored by the Danish team. The Scandinavian team has established a lead in the standings after the start of the game day. The Danes are more than familiar with their upcoming opponent. With the Serbs, they played in the same group of the European Championship, which ended in July. In addition, Denmark and Serbia decided in the third round to decide the fate of one of the tickets to the play-offs. As a result, the teams scored no goals, and the 0-0 score sent the Serbian squad out of the tournament. Bookmakers have identified the hosts as the favorites for the upcoming game, offering odds of 1.74 on their victory. For many years, Denmark was in the top 10 of the FIFA rankings and was considered one of the most promising teams on the continent. However, the Scandinavian team first disgraced themselves at the World Cup in Qatar, and then played just as poorly at the UEFA EURO. In Germany, the Danes did not win or lose a single match in the group, and then fell out in the play-offs by the efforts of the championship hosts. The last relative success of Denmark can be considered the level of its performances in the Nations League of the last draw. The Scandinavians were one point away from the Final Four, losing the top spot to France. In June this year, Serbia played at the UEFA EURO for the first time in its history. Unfortunately, the first experience was not a happy one - the national team did not win a single game and fell from the last position. The upcoming Nations League season will be the first for the Serbs in Liga A. The Slavic team got here by winning the group with Norway, Slovenia and Sweden. The Serbs' first match in the elite division was against the newly crowned continental champion Spain. Throughout the match, the favourite had a noticeable advantage, but Serbia survived at home - 0:0. Apparently, in Copenhagen the Serbs will follow the same plan, according to which they must first defend their own goal, and then think about taking the other side's. The most likely bet is a result in which the teams probe each other's weaknesses in the first half and then score goals in the second half.
