On June 26th at 3:00 AM, Denmark will face Serbia in the final match of Group C of the UEFA Euro. Denmark can secure qualification with a draw, while Serbia can also qualify by defeating Denmark. Historically, Denmark has a dominant record against Serbia.
Denmark is ranked 21st in the FIFA world ranking. In the first two rounds of the Euro group stage, Denmark drew 1-1 with Slovenia, with Eriksen scoring the goal. They then drew 1-1 against England, with Yurmand scoring a long-range world-class goal. Denmark’s star player Eriksen has been in hot form, scoring one goal and delivering 11 key passes, the most in the group stage. Furthermore, Hojbjerg also demonstrated his talent, being named the best player in Denmark’s 1-1 draw against England.
Denmark’s qualification prospects are optimistic. A draw against Serbia will secure their place in the knockout stage. Denmark, with a point, would reach 3 points (with a goal difference of 0) which is enough to be among the top 3 in Group C. Hungary, who are 3rd in Group A, have 3 points but a goal difference of -3, while Croatia, 3rd in Group B, have 2 points. This means that Denmark securing a draw will ensure their qualification.
Historically, Denmark has won their last 3 encounters against Serbia. In November 2014, Denmark defeated Serbia 3-1 in a Euro qualifier. In June 2015, Denmark won again against Serbia 2-0 in another Euro qualifier. In March 2022, Denmark beat Serbia 3-0 in a friendly match.
Serbia is currently ranked 33rd in the FIFA world ranking. In the first two rounds of the Euro group stage, Serbia lost 0-1 to England and drew 1-1 with Slovenia, with Jovic scoring a last-minute equalizer. After two rounds, Serbia, having scored only one goal, is one of the 24 Euro teams with the fewest goals scored. This includes Vlahovic, Mitrovic, and Tadic who have all failed to contribute offensively.
It’s worth noting that in the first two group matches, Serbia did not fall behind in terms of possession, number of attacks, or shots against England. When Serbia faced Slovenia, they dominated possession, attacks, and shots. For Serbia, the ability to regain their form in attack and improve their efficiency will be crucial for their chances in the final round. Despite only one point, Serbia still has a chance to qualify. If they beat Denmark, they will reach 4 points which would be enough to secure qualification. Under such circumstances, Serbia will undoubtedly approach the game with a more proactive mindset.
Letexier, a French referee, will be the main referee for the match. The VAR referee will be German referee Dankert.
