Both Denmark and Wales got off to losing starts to their 2026/27 Nations League campaign and will be looking to put some points on the board this weekend.
The Danes were narrowly beaten 3-2 by Norway, while Wales suffered a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Portugal; though the scoreline could have easily been much worse for Craig Bellamy's men.
The history between these two countries points clearly towards a home win for Denmark this weekend. The Scandinavians have won each of their last three encounters with Wales, running out 4-0 winners the last time the pair locked horns back in 2021.
While we are backing a home win in this game, we can see both teams getting on the scoreboard. Both teams scored in each of Denmark's final three World Cup qualifying group games, and their play-off tie with Czechia also produced goals at both ends of the pitch, but ultimately ended in defeat.
Wales scored in all of their World Cup qualifying matches, even the play-off defeat to Bosnia-Herzegovina, and both teams found the back of the net in six of their nine qualifiers.
Rasmus Hojlund scored one of Denmark's two goals against Norway last time out, and has now notched up 14 international goals in 36 appearances.
Hojlund rediscovered his form whilst on loan at Napoli last season, where he scored 16 times in 44 matches across all competitions. His nightmare spell with Manchester United is now over, and following his transfer to Napoli this summer, he has scored two goals in five Serie A appearances.
We're backing a Denmark win with both teams scoring, and wouldn't be surprised to see Hojlund on the scoresheet.
Denmark 3-1 Wales
