Denmark and Australia face each other in a game for this phase of the World Cup. There is no recent record of direct confrontations between the two teams, which have not crossed in the last 3 years. The last time they faced was on 02-06-2012, in a match that ended the final result: Denmark (2-0) Australia.

Analysis of Denmark

The team arrive in Group C on Matchday 2 after a win in their group debut against Peru (0-1). Denmark has 6 wins and 4 draws in the last 10 matches. The defense has been in good shape and has only conceded goals in 3 of the last 10 games, and their attack has been regularly scheduled, as it has managed to achieve in 7 of the last 10 matches. In their games there is a tendency towards few goals, since 9 of their last 20 games finished with Less than 1.5 goals and 13 in 20 finished with Less than 2.5 goals.

The Denmark squad has never managed to win a World Cup, having the best campaign of its history the eighth place in the 1998 World Cup in France. In order to reach the World Cup in Russia, the Danish national team had to play in the playoffs against Ireland after finishing the qualifying stage in second place behind Poland. The Danish team has as one of their main weapons the throws of a stopped ball, whether they are direct free kicks taken by their star Christian Eriksen or through possession of the ball in the opposing midfield, circling the ball from side to side until they find space. In the last five matches that the Danish team played, was not defeated and in all those games were marked less than 3.5 goals. We believe that this pattern will repeat itself, as the Denmark team is strong enough on the defensive level, so it should not be conceded, but it also does not have a very strong attack.

Analysis of Australia

The team arrive in Group C on Matchday 2 after a defeat in their group debut against France (2-1). In the last 10 games Australia have won 5, drawn 3 and lost 2. Defensive solidity has not been their strong point, having conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 games, but their attack has regularly scored, as they have scored goals in the last 10 matches. In their games there is a tendency to score goals, as 20 of their last 23 games have finished with over 1.5 goals. In 15 games, he only managed 1 turnaround in 6 games in which he suffered the first goal.

The Australia team made it to the World Cup after eliminating the Honduras national team in the playoffs, with Honduras 0-0 and 3-1 at home. During the qualifying phase of the Asian Zone, Australia had the following selections in Group 2: United Arab Emirates, Iraq and Thailand, the Australian team arrived in the last game needing only a draw, however lost 2-0 , and had to play the playoff to qualify. To qualify for the weak technical ability of Australia, the direct qualifier ahead of them was Saudi Arabia with the same number of points as Australia, but with two more goals, and from what we saw in the first of Saudi Arabia, is a very weak selection, having lost 5-0 against Russia, only then we can see that Australia is not a strong team.

Betting Tip:

In this game between Denmark and Australia, we believe it will be a game with few goals, because in Denmark-Peru, where Denmark won 1-0, we saw a very defensive posture of Denmark, playing mainly in counterattack, and on one of these counterattacks got the ball. As for Australia, they faced very poor qualifiers and missed out on the direct qualification for Saudi Arabia, so we do not expect a lot of goals in this match, chances are less than 2.5 goals scored.
