Scotland – Denmark. Forecast and announcement for the World Cup qualification match

On November 18, Hampden Park will host a selection match for the World Cup in Europe, in which the Scottish national team will meet the Danish national team. The match will start at 21:45 Kyiv time.

Scotland

Although the team is considered the number two progenitor in this sport, in this century it was in completely secondary roles. And only in the last cycles did she start fighting for serious goals. The Ukrainians did not miss it at the last World Championship. But it was possible to play in two Euros in a row, although both were scored a point. And in the League of Nations, they still conceded in the play-out to Greece.

They took revenge against her this fall, beating her at home 3:1. Before and after that, the national team also won against Belarus, and started in September with a scoreless draw in Copenhagen. This window started with a trip to Athens. They conceded there three times until the 63rd minute. Then, however, they revived the intrigue with a couple of goals in a few minutes. But they still conceded 2:3.

Denmark

The national team lost its reputation, which it had been building for a long time, at the last World Cup – there they did not make it out of the group at all. But Yulmand then remained at the coaching post, and then showed a good result, albeit without a bright game, at the Euro. Then, already without him, they managed to reach the playoffs in the League of Nations, but already there, starting with a 1:0 victory over Portugal, in the end they lost to the future winner of the tournament – 2:5 in extra time.

Now Brian Rimer’s wards themselves looked like favorites in the quartet. And, failing at the very start, then they confirmed their status, but the Scots also showed similar statistics. On Saturday, the Belarusians quite unexpectedly misfired, despite a quick goal against an outsider. In the end, it was even necessary to play back, and everything ended with a spectacular draw of 2:2. Although even it allows you to play in the final round for a draw, as the second number.

Statistics of personal meetings

Scots won three times in five extreme matches with one defeat.

Forecast

Bookmakers are waiting for the victory of the Danes. But the main thing for them is not to lose and, therefore, not to miss – we bet on the fact that in the end the total will be less than 2.5 goals (coefficient – 1.75).
