Our prediction for the match Switzerland vs Denmark
Both teams played in the Euro in the summer. “The Neutrals” left a clearly more attractive impression: they started with a solid victory over Hungary, advanced from the group with 5 points and defeated Italy with a 2-0 result in the 1st round of the play-offs. Moreover, they were leading in the quarter-finals with England, but Saka equalized the score in the 80th minute of the game, and the penalty shoot-out was successful for Pickford and the company. “The Dynamite” performed better than at the 2022 World Cup, but did not win: 3 draws sent the team to the 1/8 finals, where the Germans scored a couple of unanswered goals.
The teams played in the 1st round of the Nations League. And the Danes, at home, without the resigned Hjulmand, beat their opponent, who was left with a minority – 2-0. Then the team repeated the score with the Serbs. And “the Neutrals” worsened the situation with a 1-4 home defeat made by Spain.
This time, the Danes still do not have a full-fledged coach. At the same time, there are a lot of problems with the squad: Kjaer and Delaney left the team after the Euro, Maehle, Christensen, Frendrup, Jensen, O'Riley, Kjaergaard, Skov are injured. There were chances to hold on to a goalless draw in the battle against Spain, but Zubimendi was “missed” a quarter of an hour before the final whistle. Murat Yakin lost veterans like Sommer and Shaqiri. Without Xherdan, they lost with a 0-2 score to their main rival, Serbia (Elvedi’s own goal became the turning point).
