3 Way - Denmark 40/31

Denmark have won all three of their last encounters with Serbia, the latest being a 3-0 victory in March of 2022, when these two teams met in an international friendly. Although Denmark have struggled to secure a win in their first two matches of the season's UEFA Euro. They have been able to impose their football on their opponents. Against England they managed to upset the odds and walk away with a draw after equalising in the 34th minute. This goal came from their only big chance of the match. This is despite having the lions share of shots at goal. Denmark had 16 total shots at goal while England registered 12 shots at goal. Denmark also dominated key stats like, number of corners (4|2), shots on target (7|4), shots from outside the box (10|5), touches in the penalty area (21|13), final third entries (56|48), Accurate passes (476|455) and total tackles (18|10).

Kasper Hjulmand's men were able to hold up their own against a star-studded Gareth Southgate England team. However, Serbia were not able to find an equaliser when they came across England, they went one goal behind in the 13 minute and the match would end that way. England would dominate the match from there putting in a decent display of counter attacking football with England failing to convert their three big chances. Serbia failed to create any chances at goal, they had a single shot on target. Against Slovenia, they were more of a goal threat having generated 11 total shots at goal, four of which made it on target with only one being converted.

You expect a dominate performance from Denmark and a few goals from both sides. However, this match will most likely be edged by Denmark.
