Greece National Football Team vs Denmark National Football Team News
Greece manager Ivan Jovanović has the luxury of a fully fit squad, with Konstantinos Karetsas and Vangelis Pavlidis expected to lead the attack after strong showings against Belarus. Goalkeeper Konstantinos Tzolakis should continue between the sticks, preferred over Odysseas Vlachodimos.
For Denmark, coach Brian Riemer faces a notable absence with talisman Christian Eriksen missing due to being without a club, leaving Mikkel Damsgaard to step into the creative role. Up front, Mika Biereth may retain his starting spot ahead of Manchester United forward Rasmus Højlund, while Kasper Dolberg—Denmark’s top scorer in the squad—will remain their main goal threat. The head-to-head record and squad dynamics underline Denmark’s pedigree, but Greece’s new wave of talent makes this clash at Karaiskakis Stadium finely balanced.
Match Preview
This clash in Piraeus is finely balanced. Greece has rediscovered its belief, unbeaten in five of its last six, and is strong at home. Denmark remains a tournament regular, but their sluggish opener against Scotland raises concerns. With both sides boasting attacking talent, this could be a tight, tactical affair with chances at both ends.
