HOSTS Germany clash with Denmark in the last-16 of the 2024 European Championships at the BVB Stadion in Dortmund on Saturday.
Hosts Germany advanced as Group A winners with a late equaliser against Switzerland, while unbeaten Denmark progressed as runners-up despite not winning any matches.
This match echoes the EURO 1992 final, where Denmark triumphed 2-0. Germany have won twice, Denmark four times, and three draws in their nine encounters.
Germany’s defence is a concern, with Jonathan Tah suspended and Antonio Rudiger possibly out. Denmark will miss key midfielder Morten Hjulmand. The winner likely faces Spain in the quarter-finals.

Germany vs Denmark preview
Germany and Denmark are set to clash at the BVB Stadion in Dortmund, on Saturday in the last-16 of the 2024 European Championships.
Germany, the hosts, secured their spot in the knockout stages by topping Group A, thanks to a late equaliser against Switzerland. Denmark, although unbeaten, advanced as runners-up despite not securing a win against Slovenia, Serbia, and England.
This match is reminiscent of the EURO 1992 final, where Denmark famously defeated Germany 2-0 with goals from John Jensen and Kim Vilfort.
Although their most recent EURO encounter was in 2012, where Germany edged out Denmark 2-1 in the group stage. Historically, the two teams have faced each other nine times across all competitions, with Germany winning twice, Denmark four times, and three matches ending in draws.
Notably, the last two encounters have ended in stalemates.
EURO 2024 FREE BETS AND OFFERS
Germany began the tournament strongly with decisive victories over Scotland and Germany.
However, defensive vulnerabilities were exposed against Switzerland, and these issues are compounded by the suspension of Jonathan Tah and the potential absence of Antonio Rudiger due to a thigh injury.
Manager Julian Nagelsmann will be keen to rectify these defensive lapses to help Germany reach the quarter-finals of a major competition for the first time since Euro 2016.
Denmark, on the other hand, has shown consistency with three consecutive draws. However, they face a setback with the suspension of key midfielder Morten Hjulmand, who received his second booking of the group stage against Serbia.
Both teams are aware that the path ahead doesn’t get any easier, as the winner of this match is likely to face an in-form Spain in the quarter-finals.

Germany vs Denmark betting tips
Relentless
Germany have been standout entertainers at the 2024 European Championships, leading with eight goals, 57 attempts, and 19 shots on target in the group stage. They have the best passing accuracy at 93% and 207 attacks, second only to Portugal.
Despite needing a late equaliser to top Group A, they dominated with 18 attempts and 62% possession. Denmark will provide resistance, but expect a busy night for goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel – especially with an expectant home crowd urging their side forward.

Offside!
Yes, it’s niche.
But I’m backing Manchester United and Denmark forward Rasmus Hojlund for 2+ offsides on Saturday night.
The 21-year-old will lead a Denmark attack expected to play similarly to their 1-1 draw with England, where Hojlund was caught offside three times – that’s 60% of Denmark’s offsides in the tournament.
Last season, he led Manchester United with 15 offsides with Alejandro Garnacho on the same number having played over 400 minutes more.

Nice tackle
Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is excelling for Denmark at Euro 2024. The 28-year-old midfielder was arguably Player of the Match against England and has completed 12 tackles in three matches, the most in the tournament.
With Germany’s narrow attacking setup, Denmark manager Kasper Hjulmand will rely on Hojbjerg’s tenacity to disrupt their attacks.
