Denmark vs Scotland

Denmark welcome Scotland to Parken Stadium for their opening Group C fixture of the UEFA World Cup qualifiers.

The Danes are favourites to progress from the group and will be keen to lay down an early marker of their quality. They often do good work at home and should have the edge over the visitors, who are unconvincing on their travels.

Denmark News

Denmark were rampant in their last outing as they eased to a 5-0 victory over Lithuania back in June. That was the third win in four matches across all competitions for Brian Riemer’s team, who have been in good form lately.

The Danes will be pleased to be kicking things off at home, having done some good work in front of their fans lately. They have won seven of their last eight matches across all competitions on home soil.

With the likes of Mika Biereth, Rasmus Hojlund and Kasper Dolberg, Denmark are strong in attack and have scored over 1.5 goals in their last three matches. All three fixtures have also produced over 2.5 goals.

Scotland News

Scotland also showed some attacking quality in their friendly back in June, easing to a 4-0 victory over Liechtenstein. Manager Steve Clarke will be pleased to be back to winning ways having lost their previous two matches.

The Scots will head to Parken with some confidence, having won their last three away matches. However, prior to those results, they were winless in seven straight away matches, suffering six defeats in that stretch.

Like the hosts, Scotland have been a bit more attack-minded lately, although that style of play often leaves them exposed at the back. Their last three matches across all competitions have produced over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

Denmark and Scotland have claimed three wins each in the last six matches. Both teams claimed 2-0 home victories in their two meetings during the 2022 World Cup qualifiers.

Verdict

Denmark v Scotland

Denmark are the highest rated team in Group C and will be keen to show that quality on Friday. Having won seven of their last eight home matches across all competitions, they should claim the upper hand over Scotland in this one.

The Danes have plenty of quality going forward and should score over 1.5 goals for the fourth straight match. With Scotland's last three matches producing over 2.5 goals, a repeat could be on the cards here.
