Denmark seek a response after Norway’s Nations League win

What is at stake

Denmark sit second in League A - Group D on nine points after five matches, three points and one place above third-placed Norway. The standings make this a consequential final-round meeting, although the available facts do not establish what a result would mean for qualification.

Goals have featured in recent meetings

The most recent meeting came in the Nations League in September, when Norway beat Denmark 3-2. The last two meetings produced one win apiece and no draws, and neither had two goals or fewer. That history points to the potential for another open contest, though it does not guarantee one.

Our prediction

Norway’s recent win gives them a reason to believe they can trouble Denmark again, but Denmark’s three-point advantage in the group underlines their position ahead of this fixture. A Denmark win or draw looks more likely, while Norway’s latest head-to-head victory leaves a credible alternative.
