Wales vs Denmark: Dragons can turn Cardiff momentum into another Nations League statement. Read on for all our free predictions and betting tips.
Wales’ consistent home conceding and unbeaten run, combined with Denmark’s recent 4-2 defeat showing scoring and defensive issues, make both teams scoring a logical outcome. Denmark’s away struggles and Wales’ morale boost support this prediction despite Denmark’s recent 2-0 win over Wales.
A 1-1 draw fits Wales’ unbeaten home run and Denmark’s strong attack despite poor away form. Wales’ recent scoring and Denmark’s defensive lapses suggest both sides can score, but a narrow draw is likely. The correct score market is tight, so a late goal would change the outcome.

Recent Match Wins
Recent attacking records for Wales and Denmark are shown below.
Conceding Goals
Recent defensive records for Wales and Denmark are shown below.
Craig Bellamy’s side came from behind to beat Norway 2-1, collecting their first victory in almost a year and their first points of this Nations League campaign. After opening with defeats against Portugal and Denmark, that response has pulled Wales level on three points with both Norway and Sunday’s opponents.
Denmark arrive in contrasting mood following a 4-2 home defeat to Portugal. Brian Riemer’s team also have three points from three matches, meaning there is little breathing room between the sides as the League A group reaches its halfway stage.
Cardiff gives Wales cause for optimism
Wales had endured a miserable beginning to the competition, losing 1-0 in Portugal before Denmark beat them 2-0 at the end of September. The Norway result therefore mattered beyond the three points.
Bellamy’s team had to recover from falling behind and were competitive even before Norway were reduced to 10 men early in the second half. That resilience should encourage Wales as they attempt to reverse a particularly poor record against Denmark.
The Dragons have lost their last four meetings with the Danes and have won only four of the 12 encounters between the countries. Their most recent victory in the fixture came all the way back in November 2008, when they recorded a 1-0 friendly success.
Home form nevertheless offers a stronger foundation for Sunday. Wales are unbeaten in their last five home matches in normal time, while Denmark’s away record has been considerably less convincing.
The visitors have won only two of their last 13 away games and lost six during that sequence. With Wales coming into the contest on the back of a morale-boosting victory, that contrast makes Cardiff potentially significant.
Injuries test Bellamy’s options
Wales remain without several players during this international window, including Harry Wilson, Nathan Broadhead, Karl Darlow, Joe Rodon, Dylan Lawlor, Rubin Colwill and Isaak Davies.
Despite those absences, Bellamy has little reason to overhaul a team that delivered against Norway. Daniel James is in line to retain his place on the left, with Lewis Koumas again an option to lead the attack.
Denmark have fewer selection concerns. No fresh injuries were reported following the Portugal defeat and there are no suspension issues, although Patrick Dorgu has withdrawn from the squad through injury.
Morten Hjulmand is expected to remain an important presence in midfield, while Rasmus Hojlund provides the clearest attacking threat. The former Manchester United forward has scored twice across his three matches during this international period.
That attacking quality could be important because Wales have conceded in seven consecutive home games. Even during an encouraging run of results in Cardiff, Bellamy’s side have not consistently managed to shut opponents out.
Wales have an opportunity to change the tone
Denmark demonstrated their superiority in the reverse meeting only days ago, but the circumstances in Cardiff look different. Wales now have a victory behind them, home advantage and an opponent whose recent travelling record offers encouragement.
The challenge is turning Thursday’s response into sustained momentum. Denmark have dominated this fixture for years and possess a forward in Hojlund who has already found his rhythm during the international window.
For Wales, however, beating Norway has changed the complexion of a campaign that had threatened to unravel after two straight defeats. Another strong Cardiff performance would suddenly put Bellamy’s side firmly back into the Group 4 picture.
📊 Market Explainer
Both Teams to Score (BTTS)
Selection: Both Teams To Score – Yes. Both teams must score at least once during normal time. The match winner does not matter; the selection is settled only by whether each side finds the net.
Correct Score Market
Selection: Wales vs Denmark 1-1. Predict the exact score at the end of 90 minutes plus stoppage time. Extra time and penalties do not count unless the bookmaker states otherwise.
🎯 Pick 1: Both Teams To Score – Yes @ 4/6
Wales have conceded in seven consecutive home fixtures, highlighting a consistent failure to secure clean sheets even when results are positive. While Craig Bellamy’s side are unbeaten in five home matches in normal time, their inability to shut opponents out gives the Both Teams To Score market a strong foundation. Furthermore, they proved they can contribute to the goal tally by finding the net twice in their 2-1 victory over Norway on Thursday.
Denmark arrive with a contrasting recent result but a similar statistical profile, having just suffered a 4-2 home defeat to Portugal. That result demonstrated both an ability to score and a distinct vulnerability at the back. Rasmus Hojlund provides a concrete attacking threat for the visitors, having scored twice across his three matches during this international period, and will face a Welsh defence missing the injured Joe Rodon.
The strongest counterpoint is the reverse fixture in September, where Denmark secured a 2-0 victory and kept Wales off the scoresheet entirely. However, the dynamics in Cardiff present a different challenge. Denmark have struggled significantly on the road, winning only two of their last 13 away games while losing six. With Wales entering the contest buoyed by their response against Norway, the combination of Denmark’s travelling difficulties and Wales’ regular home concessions creates a logical case for both attacks finding success over 90 minutes.
🎯 Tactical Indicators
- Wales have conceded a goal in seven consecutive home fixtures.
- Denmark recently suffered a 4-2 defeat, showing scoring ability and defensive weakness.
- Rasmus Hojlund has scored twice in three international matches this period.
Risk Factor: Denmark’s 2-0 clean-sheet win in the reverse fixture shows they can shut Wales out and defeat BTTS.
Key Tactical Mismatch
Unbeaten in their last five home matches in normal time, providing a solid foundation for the hosts.
Won only two of their last 13 away matches, losing six times during that sequence on the road.
⚔️ Pick 2: Wales vs Denmark 1-1 @ 11/2
A 1-1 draw balances Wales’ proven stability in Cardiff with Denmark’s historical superiority in this specific fixture. Wales demonstrated their ability to score by putting two goals past Norway on Thursday, ending a difficult attacking sequence that had previously included a 1-0 defeat in Portugal and a 2-0 loss to Denmark. With Denmark arriving after conceding four times against Portugal, there is clear evidence that the away defence can be breached in this window, giving Craig Bellamy’s side a credible route to at least one goal despite missing several regular players.
Denmark’s path to the scoresheet is heavily supported by their recent attacking output and the hosts’ established defensive record. Rasmus Hojlund arrives in strong scoring form with two goals in three international appearances, providing a direct focal point for the visitors. Crucially, Wales have conceded in seven consecutive home games, proving that their five-match unbeaten home run is built on second-half responses rather than outright defensive dominance.
While Denmark have won the last four meetings between these nations, their broader away form limits confidence in a routine away victory. Brian Riemer’s side have recorded just two wins in their last 13 away trips, losing six times during that sequence, which makes a dominant away performance difficult to support. The 1-1 scoreline logically aligns with Wales’ ability to avoid home defeats and Denmark’s ongoing struggles on the road, although the narrow nature of the correct-score market means a single late goal would naturally defeat the selection.
Risk Factor: Denmark’s poor away form limits confidence in a routine away victory.
