Stat Attack

Prediction
After battling to a 1-1 draw against Slovenia despite having had to dig deep defensively late in the second half, Denmark will need to bring their top performance at both ends of the pitch if want to put top spot in their own hands.
England meanwhile were a game of two halves because their first half was outstanding from their attacking intensity, yet they looked vulnerable throughout the second half but dug in defensively but they need to be more consistent and involve Harry Kane more up front.
If England learn from that second half and can play with the same level across 90 minutes then they should have the edge here, but Denmark do have players who know how England’s players play individually so this won’t be easy.
Prediction: Denmark 1-2 England
Result: Denmark 1-1 England
