Belarus vs Denmark predictions ahead of this clash in World Cup qualifying on Thursday night. Belarus are back at it after a 0-2 defeat against Scotland, a game that summed up their awkward moment: limited territory (27% possession), a handful of shots (six overall, three on target), and punished when it mattered. Read on for our free betting tips and predictions.
▾
Denmark’s controlled shot volume and territory should tell against Belarus’s low-possession profile; the neutral venue reduces home energy, making a two-goal away margin the pragmatic, repeatable angle today.
▾
Denmark often build pressure in steady waves, and Belarus concede territory; a professional two-goal cushion fits the matchup, with late control protecting the lead rather than chasing needless extras on a neutral pitch.
Belarus vs Denmark Predictions and Best Bets
- Control versus strain: Denmark produced 15 attempts and eight on target against Greece with 56% possession, while Belarus faced 14 opposition shots and eight on target versus Scotland, hinting at repeat pressure patterns.
- Goal volatility factor: Belarus’s last six yielded 25 total goals (4.17 per game), including 13 for themselves, a profile that often rewards the better organised side when games open up after the first goal.
- Edge on repeatability: Brian Riemer’s Denmark have scored 13 across six matches, conceding six, a balanced return that aligns with handicap cover when paired with Belarus’s reduced home edge in Hungary.
Could disciplined Danish control silence Belarus’s messy chaos on neutral ground?
Denmark arrive in tidier shape following a clinical 3-0 victory over Greece, where they controlled the phases (56% of the ball, 15 attempts, eight on target) and finished with real purpose through Mikkel Damsgaard, Andreas Christensen and Rasmus Højlund. The narrative almost writes itself: one side chasing stability, the other sharpening the edges.
The wider pattern is hard to ignore. Belarus’s recent fixtures have been chaotic score-wise, averaging 4.17 total goals across six matches, while the Danes under Brian Riemer have scored 13 in their last six and conceded six. Even with Belarus technically “at home” but forced to play in Hungary, the psychological balance tilts. It’s a stage built for a composed away performance—unless Belarus spring a surprise. They do that sometimes; football enjoys being awkward.
Best Bet: Denmark -1 Handicap (win by two or more)
We’ve considered every sensible angle for this clash and this is our clearest edge. Here at BettingTips4You we deliberately publish a single prediction per match—not a scattergun of half-ideas. Quality beats quantity, and it keeps everyone honest. You know exactly what we’re backing, and we can track performance without hiding behind a dozen “what ifs”.
Why Denmark -1 is the ultimate pick for this game
From a tactical lens, Denmark are better structured in almost every relevant phase. Against Greece they showed a balance that coaches love: compressed distances in the middle third, controlled pressing triggers, and enough individual quality to turn pressure into shots. The numbers aren’t flukes either—15 attempts, eight on target—suggesting repeatable chance creation rather than a one-off burst. That sequencing typically translates against opponents who struggle to sustain possession or progress the ball cleanly, which is where Belarus have looked vulnerable.
Belarus’s recent 0-2 against Scotland underlined recurring issues: they spent long stretches without the ball (27% possession) and couldn’t stem waves of attacks—Scotland produced 14 shots, eight on target. When your defensive box is consistently busy, random events creep in, and not the good kind; Zakhar Volkov’s own goal is a neat, if cruel, example of pressure bending outcomes. Overlay that with the longer-run statline—25 total goals across their last six, with 13 credited to Belarus—and you get volatility. Volatility rarely helps underdogs who cannot control territory.
Brian Riemer’s Denmark, by contrast, have a recent six-game profile of 13 for and six against, which is tidy enough to trust. They don’t need to be perfect to clear the -1 line; they need sustained field position, set-piece threat, and one strong spell either side of half-time. All three are well within reach. The “home” disadvantage for Belarus also matters—playing in Hungary dilutes crowd energy and routine. It’s not a decisive factor by itself, but in a game of thin margins it reinforces the away favourite’s platform.
As for the counter-point—Belarus have found the net in seven of their last nine—fair. There’s some bite in transition and they can throw a jab when the game loosens. But the -1 handicap does not demand a clean sheet; a 3-1 or 4-2 still pays, and Denmark have shown they can keep piling on even when they concede. The sharper chance quality sits with the visitors, and their recent efficiency suggests they won’t waste repeated entries.

“In matches where one side dominate territory and entries like Denmark did versus Greece, the -1 line becomes a value anchor. You’re essentially betting on control repeating, not miracles.”
If you want the short version: Denmark bring organisation and end-product; Belarus bring effort and occasional chaos. Over ninety minutes, the organised team usually stretch away. That’s our edge.
Likely scoreline (without giving the game away)
A professional away display points to 0-2. Denmark create in steady bursts, protect transitions better than Belarus, and lean on structure rather than adrenaline. It’s not flashy, but it’s effective.
