England head into Thursday night’s Group C encounter with Denmark in Frankfurt knowing that a victory would likely be enough for them to book a place in the knockout stages of Euro2024.

The Three Lions opened their group stage campaign with a hard-earned 1-0 win over Serbia courtesy of a headed goal from Real Madrid starlet Jude Bellingham, who was England’s top performer on the night.

⚽ Match prediction: England to win @ 1.67

Gareth Southgate’s team produced a solid first-half performance. However, Serbia made it far more difficult in the second period, and England was far more cautious in the second period. 

Many will worry about England’s second-half performance, but as they have proven in recent major tournaments, they know how to negotiate the group stages.

Sunday night’s result means they haven’t suffered defeat in eight games at the European Championships over 90 minutes. However, they suffered a penalty kick defeat against Italy in the final of Euro 2020. 

Denmark’s Group C campaign started frustratingly when they drew 1-1 with Slovenia, who are supposedly group outsiders. 

The draw against Slovenia has put Denmark in a precarious position. A failure to secure a positive result in this clash would significantly increase the pressure for their final game against Serbia. 

The draw against Slovenia stretched Denmark’s unbeaten run to five international games. However, the game ended a run of three straight victories, which sent the Danes into this competition high in confidence.

Denmark will know they have the attacking players to cause England’s defence issues, with Manchester United’s Rasmus Hojlund and Wolfsburg’s prolific Jonas Wind available to head coach Hjulmand. 

The pair will be looking to follow in the footsteps of veteran midfielder Christian Eriksen, who scored the team’s only goal in their group opener.

Denmark are unbeaten in the last three meetings with England. However, this England team is considered one of the best in the competition, so that decent run could easily end here.
