Germany vs Denmark prediction

Momentum is a powerful tool in hockey and right now, Denmark have it in bucketloads whilst German appears to have lost any that they had earlier in the group stage. Three straight defeats, including most recently against Czechia leaves them on the brink of throwing away what looked like a certain place in the knockout stage at one point.

Denmark though, are the form team and come into this game on fire, winning their last three and scoring a whopping 19 points in the process. An early score could very easily see Germany collapse when taking into account a likely lack of confidence on their end. Back a red-hot Danish side to seal a quarter-final spot in this one.
