Match info

In the fifth round of the men’s football 2024–25 UEFA Nations League group stages, Denmark plays the favorite (as per the best betting websites in Europe) Spain on home soil in League A, Group 4. Both teams are fighting for the top spot in the standings, although Spain has already guaranteed a trip to the quarterfinals. At 8:45 p.m. local time on Friday, November 15, the game, which is essential to deciding who advances to the next round as the group winner, will begin at Copenhagen’s Parken Stadium. Spain presently leads with 10 points, and a point would guarantee that it finishes first. Denmark is three points behind Spain and wants, at minimum, to stay there and advance to the quarterfinals.

Meeting statistics

The current form of Denmark

Seeking to halt Spain is a formidable Denmark team, which has a lot of Premier League talent. They are only three points behind group leader Spain, and they are aware that a win might put them ahead of their rival. Depending on the outcome of the other match in the group, one point could be sufficient for the Danes to place second.

Spain’s strong defensive record in the tournament may make it difficult for the host to score goals. They’ve only given up once in their last four games, and that was in a 4-1 victory over Switzerland. Denmark’s defense has performed similarly, giving up three goals while keeping two clean sheets. If Denmark is to win three points, though, the focus will be on its attack. Rasmus Højlund of Manchester United will probably start at the front as he continues to look for his first goal of the season. This season, he has only scored twice for his club in all competitions.

“De Rød-Hvide” (the “Red and Whites”) have won two, lost two, and drawn one of their previous five games. Despite earning a point in its most recent match against Switzerland, the Scandinavian side has clearly been uneven lately, making it an underdog in the match with odds of 3.899 on SBOBET. On the other hand, Spain is 1.806.

The current form of Spain

Spain has been strong in front of their rivals’ goals thus far, scoring seven in its last three games, even though it opened the Nations League with a goalless draw. With two goals, Fabián Ruiz leads the way. Several players, like Samu Omorodion of Porto, may be able to take advantage of the fact that Luis de la Fuente will try out some less exploited players in Copenhagen. With a total of 11 goals in the Portuguese league and Europe, the 20-year-old has made an early impression.

Spain has won four and drawn one of its previous five games. The European champion has been playing well lately, carrying over its summer success into the Nations League. Its current campaign didn’t get off to the best start as “La Roja” (the “Red One”) was held to a goalless draw against Serbia, even though its possession and shot attempts were superior to the rivals. They swiftly recovered, though, defeating Switzerland 4-1. They went on to win again, this time by a slim margin of 1-0 over Denmark. Spain defeated Serbia 3-0 in its most recent match.

Head-to-head

This will be the 18th time Spain and Denmark have met, and the former has usually been the stronger of the two. They’ve only lost twice and have 13 victories overall. Spain has won seven of the last eight games since 1993 and is now on a five-game winning streak against its opponents.

Match analytics

We anticipate that the visiting team will win by a slim margin in this match. Spain has been playing quite well this year, going undefeated in 14 straight games (three wins in a row). “La Roja” has scored the first goal in four of its last five games, demonstrating a strong attacking threat. With less than 2.5 goals scored in seven of its last eight games, Denmark hasn’t been involved in high-scoring contests lately.

Tip: First Team To Score – Spain, with odds of 1.60 on Rivalo.
