Prediction before the match Denmark vs Scotland

Scotland have failed to qualify for the World Cup in six successive campaigns, but they will be hoping to return to the biggest stage in this year's qualifiers. They are in a group with Denmark, Greece and Belarus. To secure a place in next summer's finals, Scotland know they must pick up points against direct rivals like Denmark.

But it is no easy task. Denmark have been a force to be reckoned with on the international stage for many years, having qualified for five of the last seven World Cups and nine of the last 11 European Championships.

In terms of strength, Denmark boasts a strong, experienced squad with many players coming from top European leagues. In addition, their cohesive team play makes them a team not to be underestimated.

Form, head-to-head history Denmark vs Scotland

Home form has been key to Denmark’s success, with the team having won 11 of their last 12 home games. Their last home defeat in World Cup qualifying came nine years ago (2016 vs Montenegro).

In 3 of their last 5 World Cup qualifiers, Denmark have won by 2 goals or more. They have scored an average of 3.8 goals per game in their last 5 home games in World Cup qualifiers. That is why Denmark are very confident when hosting Scotland.

On the other side of the coin, Scotland will need to overcome Denmark if they are to have any hope of ending their long wait for a World Cup. The team last qualified for the tournament in 1998, but they were sadly knocked out in the 2022 World Cup qualifying round. After finishing second in the qualifying round, Steve Clarke's side made it to the play-offs, where they were eventually beaten by Ukraine.

That defeat helped them mature. Scotland are progressing on the international stage. They have won 4 of their last 6 matches, which is unusual for this team. Away from home, Scotland have been even more impressive, winning all 3 of their last matches. That is the basis for them to hope to make a surprise against Denmark in tonight's match...

Expected lineup Denmark vs Scotland

Denmark: Schmeichel; Kristensen, Andersen, Vestergaard, Dorgu; Hojbjerg, Hjulmand; Dreyer, Dolberg, Damsgaard; Hojlund.
