Denmark vs Spain Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds
A win here will seal Denmark’s place in the quarterfinals.
With the international break back again, it’s time for some UEFA Nations League action as Denmark take on table toppers Spain at the Parken stadium looking to seal their spot in the quarterfinals with a win here.
Denmark have done a decent job so far but now have to win any of the two games remaining to secure their place in the quarterfinals of the competition. With Spain’s spot already secured, there is a spot up for grabs with Serbia also in contention. So far, they have done well accumulating seven points from the starting four games winning two, drawing, and losing one each to languish in the second spot.
Spain have had a fantastic year first winning gold in the Paris Olympics and then winning the UEFA Euro 2024 to become the best team in Europe. Credits need to be given to Luis de la Fuente who has assembled a top squad composed of youth and experience. Under him, they are playing some wonderful football so far becoming the only team in the group to remain unbeaten. La Roja have won three and drawn one in the group.

Players to Watch
Christian Eriksen (Denmark)
Christian Eriksen has to be one of the most underrated midfielders in the world. Despite catching the eye of everyone with his consistent performances at the heart of midfield for his club and national team, the player hasn’t got the appreciation he deserves.
He is one of the experienced players in the team who has smashed over 138 appearances for them scoring 43 goals in the process. Eriksen’s ability to create chances for the team and also come up with crucial goals makes him the player to watch in this game.
Dani Olmo (Spain)
Dani Olmo has been one of the pivotal reasons for Spain’s success this past year and so has played a crucial role in La Rojas’s Euro 2024 triumph. He has also started the new season in scintillating form for his new club Barcelona scoring five goals already despite playing a mere 315 minutes overall. With Lamine Yamal injured, he will be given the role of creating the chances for the team and also coming up with the goals at the same time.
