Germany vs Denmark prediction

Neither Germany nor Denmark fought it out for a medal in 2022 with both having been eliminated prior to the semi-finals. They’ll each be hoping for better on this occasion and an emphasis on clinical attacking play will be expected from both. With USA in the same group, it’s vital for Germany and Denmark that they come out of this game with victory and that should be reflected in the type of contest we see.

Offense will more the likely dominate with bodies being pushed forward by both sides. It could turn into a basketball style end-to-end encounter. Therefore, back a healthy number of goals to be scored across the three periods, regardless of who comes out on top in the end.

Germany vs Denmark tip: Over 5.5 total goals
