EURO 2024 Qualifier Preview

Denmark returns to action for the first time since the World Cup on Thursday. It could be argued that the Danes were among the most disappointing teams at the 2022 World Cup, as they crashed out in the group stage having failed to pick up a single win. However, Kasper Hjulmand’s team will be expected to get back on track when the EURO 2024 qualifiers get underway this week. 

Denmark is the clear favourite to progress out of Group H as group winners, and those chances will be boosted based on their qualification performances in recent years. They qualified for the World Cup after winning nine of their ten matches, while they also qualified for the previous edition of the EUROs having gone eight without defeat. But, they will need to bounce back to form after three disappointing performances in Qatar.

Finland achieved something that they had never previously achieved in the previous edition of qualification for the EUROs, as they managed to reach a major tournament for the first time in their history. They won six of the ten games that they played, before winning once in three matches at EURO 2020. 

Their form last year was relatively solid, as they finished second in their Division B group of the Nations League, having won two from six matches. However, they come into this opening round of qualifying matches having lost their last two without scoring a goal.

Denmark vs Finland Head to Head

Denmark has won 38 of the previous 59 matches that they have played against Finland. This will be the first meeting between the sides since June 2021, where Finland ran out 1-0 winners at the EUROs. However, Denmark has still won two of their previous three matches against Finland.

Denmark vs Finland Prediction

Finland may have won the previous meeting between the sides, but that match was overshadowed by Christian Eriksen’s collapse in the first half. We expect this showdown to follow the trend of previous matches between the sides, with Denmark running out comfortable winners against their Scandinavian rivals.
