After securing a valuable three points in their opener amidst a sputtering performance, Euro 2024 favorites England now look to lock down a place in the knockout stage as they meet Denmark in Group C play.

The Three Lions were poor on the whole but managed to see out a 1-0 victory over Serbia in their first match of the tournament. Still, the result coupled with poor performances in the pre-tournament friendlies, have some England fans worried about their viability as Euro title contenders.

England have a wealth of attacking talent, but it was Jude Bellingham’s 12th-minute goal that did the business, as the likes of Phil Foden and Harry Kane fell flat. The positives came from the back line as defender Marc Guehi impressed while helping hold Serbia to just a single shot on target.

Denmark opened with a disappointing 1-1 draw against Slovenia, as Christian Eriksen’s emotional early opener was eventually canceled out in the 77th minute. It leaves them desperate for points amid remaining matches against the competition favorites and then a physical and talented Serbia.

England vs. Denmark prediction, odds

  • Moneyline lean: England (-155)
  • Score prediction: Denmark 0-2 England

England were far from convincing in their Euro 2024 opener, and there are plenty of reasons to be concerned about their ability to beat others in this tournament field, but this is not the spot where they will falter.

Denmark were also unconvincing in their first game and have been less than impressive in recent months overall. Their recent wins over Sweden and Faroe Islands were far closer than the disparity in talent between the sides should indicate, and they’ve also been on the wrong end of disappointing results against Switzerland and Northern Ireland.

The Three Lions have attacking issues to sort out, but so do their opponents, and talent will win out in this game.

England vs. Denmark best bet

  • Pick: England win to nil
  • Odds: +145 (BetMGM)

England boss Gareth Southgate has a similar mentality to that of France head coach Didier Deschamps. They both have a wealth of world-class attacking talent in the squad, yet each coach understands that in competitive international football, the tactics must be simple and the results come any way possible, even if they’re far from enjoyable to watch.

Southgate is happy to sit on a lead, just as England did against Serbia, smothering the opponent who never presented a true threat to the one-goal advantage.

They’ll approach this match in a similar manner. The defensive partnership of John Stones and Marc Guehi was impressive in the opener, while Kieran Trippier and Kyle Walker are defensively adept alongside their abilities to go forward. Declan Rice is one of the best in the world at the six, and even No. 10 Jude Bellingham provides exceptional defensive contributions.

Denmark will have no way through after an overall poor attacking performance in their opener, where Christian Eriksen’s lone goal provided a third of their total 1.66 expected goal haul and almost half their 1.97 xGOT.


England vs. Denmark prop bet

  • Pick: Bukayo Saka to score or assist a goal
  • Odds: +130 (FanDuel)

Few players in this summer’s tournament field are owed a European Championship goal like Bukayo Saka, who has yet to score in a Euro match across his five career appearances.

The 22-year-old has a high work rate and is asked to do a lot of dirty work in the England setup, and somehow has never even taken a single shot in any of his five Euro games. Yet he always presents a danger in the attacking third, having scored three goals at the 2022 World Cup and four more in the latest round of Euro qualifying, and his creative juices are always flowing as well.

Saka’s assist on Jude Bellingham’s goal in England’s opener is his second in a Euro match following one against this very opponent, Denmark, in the Euro 2020 semifinal. Strong plus odds here are good value despite the fact that goals may be hard to come by in this match.
