Denmark vs Sweden Team Overview
Denmark
Denmark, the bronze medal winners of Euro 2020, have their sights firmly set on glory, which speaks volumes about the Red and Whites’ lofty ambitions. True, the Vikings had a dismal campaign at the 2022 World Cup, failing to reach the knockout rounds, but now they are hell-bent on rehabilitating themselves.
Denmark’s qualifying road to Euro 2024 was not easy, but ultimately, they coped with the main task. In ten rounds, they collected 22 out of 30 possible points, securing the top spot in Group H. Since then, they played two matches: a 0-0 draw against Switzerland and a 2-0 victory over the Faroe Islands.
Sweden
Sweden played in all Euro editions in the 21st century, but their successful streak came to a grinding halt. The Euro 2024 qualifiers were a nightmare for them. It seemed that in a group with Belgium, Azerbaijan, Estonia and Austria, they should have at least clinched the second place but were shockingly shown the exit door – eight points behind Austria.
In the wake of this lacklustre showing, Janne Andersson was dismissed, and Jon Dahl Tomasson took over as head coach. Under his leadership, the Swedes have taken to the field twice in friendlies. In the first, they suffered a crushing defeat against Portugal, but they also managed to edge out a narrow 1-0 victory in their second match against Albania.
Bet hereDenmark vs Sweden Prediction
- Pick: Denmark to Win
- Odds: 1.88 (22bet)
Denmark are getting ready for the start of Euro 2024, where they will compete as the reigning bronze medalists. The Swedish national team are in a completely different state, and for the first time in the 21st century they will not play at the Euros.
Experience and cohesion, coupled with the home advantage, tilt the scales in favour of the Red and Whites, as the game will take place in Copenhagen. On their turf, the hosts have won six of the last seven meetings.

Denmark will rely on players such as Rasmus Hojlund, Christian Eriksen, Andreas Christensen and Pierre-Emile Højbjerg to lead the charge. I think that Denmark will manage to snatch a victory in this game, setting them up nicely for the upcoming group-stage battles.
Denmark vs Sweden Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Denmark Over 1.5 Goals
- Odds: 1.82 (22bet)
Denmark have not only beat almost everyone on home soil in Copenhagen but also they’ve also been firing on all cylinders in the final third. In total, in seven previous matches in Copenhagen, the Vikings scored 15 goals (2.14 on average per game) and that’s against top-notch opposition, no less.
Fantastisk måde at starte samlingen på.

I think that in the upcoming encounter, the hosts will create many chances in the attack and should be able to find the back of the net several times. Moreover, the Swedes conceded 19 goals in the previous eight away matches (a porous 2.38 goals conceded per game on average).
Based on this formidable home record and Sweden’s defensive frailties on the road, the best pick would be an individual total of over 1.5 goals for Denmark.
