Ukraine U21 vs Denmark U21 Preview and Team News

Ukraine U21 Team News

Unai Melgosa will be tasked with leading Ukraine U21s at the EUROs this Summer. The national side’s best previous performance came when finishing second in 2006. However, the team enjoyed a fine run to the semi-finals during the 2023 edition of the competition. 

Ukraine could be a nation that upsets the odds at the tournament this season. They have excellent attacking quality, evident in their qualification campaign after netting 20 goals. 

Their 4-3-3 formation also gives them a strong defensive unit, with the players dropping into a 4-5-1 layout when they don’t have the ball. Melgosa is unlikely to make too many changes to the team that beat Spain 1-0 in a prep match on Friday.

Denmark U21 Team News

Denmark U21s will be making their tenth appearance at the EUROs this Summer, and it will be a welcome return to the tournament after missing out in 2023. Their best showings were reaching the semi-finals in 1992 and 2015. 

Steffen Højer led the national side through the qualification campaign with few concerns. Denmark won five of their eight matches, scoring an impressive Group I-high of 18 goals and allowing just eight efforts.

However, they’ll have defensive issues to address this season after failing to keep a clean sheet in their last four internationals. An expansive 4-3-3 formation has been implemented in their warm-up games, but Højer could revert to a more defensive style to get the best out of his players. They seem to have the best effect on the counter-attack.

Ukraine U21 vs Denmark U21 Prediction

• Score prediction: Ukraine U21 2-0 Denmark U21

The value play when making a Ukraine U21 vs Denmark U21 prediction this week may be for the surprise package from the previous edition of the tournament. 

Ukraine brings solid form to the table, recently beating Spain and playing out tight affairs with England during qualification. 

Their possession-focused style enables them to dominate the ball. Their excellent quality in the final third should ensure they create a host of chances against a Denmark team that rarely keep clean sheets. 

Ukraine U21 vs Denmark U21 Prediction, Betting Tip

• Pick: Under 2.5 Goals
• Odds: 1.96 (22Bet)

Denmark’s recent form raises concerns about their ability to navigate this tricky group. 

Reverting to a more defensive setup should make them more difficult to break down, but they could encounter issues in the final third. Denmark have failed to win their previous four internationals, and have been unable to score even once over that period. 

Ukraine’s vibrant attacking players will ensure this is a big test, and we could see them controlling the game after taking the lead. Therefore, under 2.5 goals makes a lot of appeal this week.
