Denmark – Euro 2024 Overview

England have been drawn in Group C alongside England, Slovenia and Serbia.

Denmark will be looking to exact revenge over England after feeling robbed at Wembley in the Euro 2020 semi-final, where they lost out to a controversial penalty. However, their clash with the pragmatic Slovenia may end up being more important to their chances of progressing. Regular watchers of the Premier League will see a number of familiar faces in the likes of Manchester United’s Rasmus Højlund and Christian Eriksen, Tottenham’s 

Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, Brentford’s Christian Nørgaard, Joachim Andersen of Crystal Palace and Bournemouth’s Phillip Billing. Anderlecht’s Kasper Schmeichel, formerly of Leicester City and Barcelona defender Andreas Christensen, formerly of Chelsea are other notable names in a squad which possesses a number of solid international performers. The Danes are a side not to be underestimated.

Kasper Hjulmand’s side won their qualifying group, ahead of Slovenia and will fancy their chances of a good run into the knockout stages.

The Danish EC squad is expected to be selected 3-4 weeks before their opener against Slovenia on June 16, but at Betting.com have picked a probable squad:

Key players

Here we have listed three of the key players in the Danish Euro 2024 squad:

• Anders Christensen – Christensen impressed in the Premier League with Chelsea and has since moved to Barcelona, where he has operated as a central defender and as a holding midfielder. He is now a regular in the Danish national team and without a doubt one of Denmark’s key men.
• Pierre-Emile Højbjerg – Tottenham’s midfield ace Pierre-Emile Højbjerg made his debut in the Danish national team back in 2014. The 28-year-old is described as a technically strong footballer who reads the game really well.
• Kasper Schmeichel – Schmeichel may be entering the later stages of his career, but he is a quality goalkeeper with great experience.

Denmark Odds at Euro 2024

Denmark are considered outsiders to win the tournament, however, most bookmakers expect them to make the knockout stages. The Danes should make it out of the group and an exit in the last 16 or the quarterfinals would probably be in line with expectations.
