Bet Builder Tip For Denmark vs Scotland

Denmark and Scotland lock horns in Copenhagen as the road to the 2026 World Cup continues. The Danes are seasoned qualifiers with a formidable record at home, while the Scots are eager to finally put an end to their long absence from football’s biggest stage. We have assembled a Bet Builder that combines match outcome markets with player-focused selections, built around current form, tactical approaches, and likely match dynamics.

Here’s our Bet Builder pick for Denmark vs Scotland, which has been placed with Bet365:

Bet 1: Double Chance – Draw or Scotland

Opting for Scotland to avoid defeat provides strong value given recent performances. Although Denmark have historically been very strong on home soil, winning 11 of their last 12 competitive fixtures in front of their supporters, Steve Clarke’s team have shown signs of significant development. Scotland have been victorious in three consecutive away matches, including notable wins against Poland and Greece. These results underline their ability to compete effectively outside Hampden Park.

In the last qualifying cycle, Scotland and Denmark shared one win apiece, proving that the Scots can match their Nordic opponents over ninety minutes. While the Danes have a more consistent tournament history, Clarke’s men have momentum, with Che Adams in scoring form and Andy Robertson marshalling the defence. By contrast, Denmark’s occasional struggles against top opposition – recent defeats to Spain and Portugal – hint that they can be unsettled when put under pressure.

A draw remains a realistic possibility given the evenly matched nature of their last head-to-head encounters. For those cautious about backing a Scotland victory outright, the double chance provides coverage against a stalemate, while still rewarding if the Tartan Army manage to edge it.

Bet 2: Scott McTominay – 1+ Shot on Target in First Half

Scott McTominay has grown into a crucial attacking figure for both club and country, often finding himself in advanced positions rather than sitting deep. His late runs into the box make him a consistent threat, especially in the opening phases when opposition defences are still adjusting. Against sides like Denmark, who favour a high defensive line, McTominay’s ability to exploit gaps from midfield could create shooting opportunities early on.

Scotland’s attacking structure often relies on midfielders supporting Che Adams, and McTominay has shown an appetite for striking from distance as well as arriving in dangerous positions during transitions. Given Denmark’s tendency to dominate possession, the Scots are likely to rely on counters and set pieces in the first half, both of which suit McTominay’s style. His aerial presence at corners is another factor that boosts his chances of testing Kasper Schmeichel before the interval.

With his Ballon d’Or nomination underlining his growing reputation, this is a player brimming with confidence. One effort on target in the opening 45 minutes seems highly attainable.

Bet 3: Scott McTominay – 1+ Shot on Target in Second Half

Backing McTominay again after the break makes sense, as Scotland’s midfield dynamo tends to grow into matches. Clarke often instructs him to push further forward when chasing a result, making him just as dangerous – if not more – after half time. Denmark’s defensive organisation can occasionally loosen later in games, particularly if they commit men forward in search of goals, leaving spaces that McTominay thrives on exploiting.

Recent evidence suggests that Scotland are capable of raising their intensity in the latter stages. With substitutes adding fresh energy, McTominay is often the player driving attacks from midfield, and his physicality allows him to remain sharp deep into games. His confidence in shooting from outside the area, coupled with his instinct for timing runs into the box, means he has a realistic chance of finding another effort on target in the second half.

Considering both his first-half and second-half attacking potential gives this bet strong appeal, especially in a fixture where Scotland will need every weapon to challenge Denmark’s dominance.

Bet 4: Scott McTominay – To Commit 1+ Fouls

McTominay’s physical playing style makes him a prime candidate to be penalised at least once. Operating in the heart of midfield, he will be tasked with breaking up Denmark’s fluid passing sequences. With Pierre-Emile Højbjerg and Christian Hjulmand controlling possession, Scotland’s number six is likely to find himself chasing duels and being forced into challenges.

The match context adds further weight to this expectation. In a high-intensity qualifier where Scotland will inevitably spend spells defending, McTominay’s aggressive edge will be vital. However, that very commitment often results in him stepping across opponents or mistiming tackles, both of which attract the referee’s whistle.

His previous international appearances have shown a consistent tendency to register fouls when facing technically strong midfields. Given Denmark’s ability to dominate the ball, it seems almost inevitable that McTominay will be called up for at least one infringement.ots on target after half-time is a logical expectation, particularly given Kazakhstan’s struggles to stay organised once fatigue sets in.
