Denmark vs Norway prediction and betting tips - June 8, 2024
One of the most intriguing matches this Saturday will be played in Copenhagen, where the Danish national team will host Norway at the Brøndby Stadium. Here is a forecast for this match from the team of experts at Dailysports.
Denmark
The Danes enter the upcoming Euro 2024 as semifinalists from the previous continental tournament. However, they followed this success with a disappointing World Cup in Qatar, where Kasper Hjulmand's team failed to advance past the group stage. Consequently, the forthcoming tournament presents a significant opportunity for Denmark to restore their former glory.
In the group stage of Euro 2024, Denmark will face England, Serbia, and Slovenia. In the spring, Denmark played two friendly matches – drawing 0-0 with Switzerland and defeating the Faroe Islands 2-0. Only two friendly matches are scheduled for June. In the first of these, the Danes secured a victory, defeating Sweden 2-1. Christian Eriksen contributed a goal and an assist, with Emil Højbjerg scoring the other goal.
Norway
Norway, contrary to expectations, did not qualify for the continental tournament. The team, led by Martin Ødegaard and Erling Haaland, finished third in their qualifying group with Spain, Scotland, Georgia, and Cyprus, failing to even reach the playoffs.
In the spring, Norway played two home friendlies against the Czech Republic (1-2) and Slovakia (1-1). Their first friendly match in June was at home in Oslo against Kosovo, where they secured a convincing 3-0 victory. Erling Haaland recorded a hat-trick.
