Spain vs Denmark Predictions

Will Denmark’s solid start crumble against Spain’s relentless attack?

• Spain’s lethal attack: Spain have scored at least two goals in nine of their last 12 matches, showcasing their firepower even with key players sidelined.
• Denmark’s defensive resilience: Denmark have kept two clean sheets in their last two Nations League games, but can they withstand Spain, who have scored in five of their last six?
• Spain’s unbeaten run: La Roja are unbeaten in 12 matches, including victories over European heavyweights like Germany, France, and England. Will Denmark be the next to fall?

Our Tips

Spain and Denmark are set to lock horns in what promises to be an intriguing UEFA Nations League clash on Saturday night. The stakes are high for both teams, with Denmark sitting comfortably at the top of Group A4, having secured two wins from their opening two fixtures. Spain, on the other hand, are two points adrift and need a victory to leapfrog their Scandinavian opponents.

Coming off a brilliant European Championship campaign that saw them lift the trophy with a hard-fought victory over England, Spain will be eager to continue their fine form. However, the Danes, buoyed by their solid start under caretaker boss Lars Knudsen, are no pushovers. They’ve shown defensive resilience and tactical discipline in their recent matches, which will give them some hope as they travel to Spain’s home turf. Yet, Denmark’s history against Spain is less than encouraging, and they’ll have to produce something special to avoid adding to their six defeats in the last seven encounters with La Roja.

The match is shaping up to be a classic contest of style, with Spain’s fluid attacking play facing Denmark’s resolute defence. Can the Danes hold out and spring a surprise, or will Spain’s quality shine through?

Best Bet: Spain to win and both teams to score

This match may seem straightforward for Spain, but Denmark’s recent form suggests they won’t be easily brushed aside. A bet on Spain to win with both teams scoring stands out as the best value option here, offering a combination of Spain’s attacking prowess with the potential for Denmark to find the back of the net.

Spain’s recent 4-1 triumph over Switzerland was a masterclass in taking chances, especially after being reduced to 10 men. The fact that they have scored at least twice in nine of their last 12 matches speaks volumes about their offensive threat, even without key players like Ferran Torres and Dani Olmo. Alvaro Morata, leading the line, has been clinical in recent games, and with support from the likes of Fabian Ruiz and Lamine Yamal, Spain should have no problem creating opportunities.

However, Denmark are not to be underestimated. They may not have the same firepower as Spain, but they have been rock solid at the back. Their defence, led by Jannik Vestergaard and Pierre-Emile Højbjerg in midfield, has kept two clean sheets in their opening Nations League games. But facing Spain’s attack is a different challenge altogether, and they will likely concede. Nevertheless, with players like Rasmus Højlund back from injury, Denmark could take advantage of Spain’s occasional lapses at the back, especially given that La Roja have conceded in five of their last six matches.

As BettingTips4You.com expert Gerard Gavasa puts it: “Spain’s ability to unlock defences is undeniable, but their occasional defensive slip-ups make it very likely that Denmark will get a goal. Spain will likely win, but don’t rule out Denmark putting one past them.” In other words, Spain to win with both teams to score feels like the perfect blend of confidence in Spain’s attack and respect for Denmark’s threat on the counter.

Correct Score Prediction: Spain 3-1 Denmark

Following from the best bet, a 3-1 victory for Spain feels like the most plausible outcome. Spain’s capacity to score multiple goals per game is well-documented. With an average of 15 shots per game and an impressive 6.5 of those on target, they will certainly test Denmark’s defence. The Danes, who have shown some defensive vulnerability against lesser sides, will struggle to contain the likes of Morata, Yamal, and Fabian Ruiz.

Moreover, with Spain averaging 2 goals per game in this Nations League campaign, and Denmark boasting a similar record, the possibility of both sides scoring seems high. But while Denmark may snatch a goal through Højlund or Eriksen’s set-piece magic, Spain’s depth and quality will likely overwhelm the visitors. La Roja’s history of overpowering Denmark – their last four encounters have ended 10-2 in aggregate favouring Spain – makes this prediction all the more reasonable. Given Denmark’s current form and Spain’s attacking relentlessness, 3-1 is a scoreline that reflects both teams’ recent performances and their respective strengths and weaknesses.
