Portugal vs Denmark Predictions

• Both teams have scored in Portugal’s last three home games
• Denmark have drawn five of their last 11 games
• Nine of the Danes’ last 11 matches have gone under 2.5 goals

Portugal struggling

Portugal won the inaugural Nations League in 2019 but since then have failed to have a major impact on the international stage despite their undoubtedly talented squad.

They departed at the quarter-final stage of both the 2022 World Cup and Euro 2024 and could be set for a last-eight exit once again after losing the first leg of this Nations League tie to Denmark.

Rasmus Hojlund’s goal was the difference between these two teams but the Danes won the shot count 23-8 and had a whopping nine shots on target so it is hard to say that they didn’t deserve it.

Both teams to score fancied

Portugal should not be as blunt going forward in this game however and both teams are fancied to get on the scoresheet.

Both teams have scored in Portugal’s last three home matches and Denmark’s young side were in fluent form going forward in the first leg so it is hard to back against them getting on the scoresheet too.

Five of Denmark’s last 11 games have ended in stalemate and correct score backers may want to keep a 1-1 draw onside with the visitors happy to play out a share of the spoils that would see them progress to the semi-final.
