Denmark v Serbia predictions: Draw kings Denmark to get win on board
- Denmark have played out a pair of 1-1 draws in the tournament so far
- Serbia are on one point gained from a 1-1 draw against Slovenia
- Recommended bet: Denmark to win
It's crunch time in Group C as Denmark and Serbia clash at the Allianz Arena chasing a first win of the competition so far.
The Danes have drawn both their openers - 1-1 against Slovenia and England - while the Serbs lost 1-0 to England before leaving it late to snatch a 1-1 draw with the Slovenes.
Denmark, semi-finalists at the last Euros, are 6/5 shots with LiveScore Bet with Serbia available at 41/20.
Team news
Thomas Delaney is available again after a bug though Kasper Hjulmand is unlikely to tear up his midfield at this stage.
Simon Kjaer, the veteran AC Milan centre-back, could come in to freshen up Denmark's back three.
Serbia's left wing-back Filip Kostic picked up an injury against England which rules him out of the finals so Filip Mladenovic should start as he did against Slovenia. Udinese's Lazar Samardzic is challenging Dusan Vlahovic for a spot up front.
The stats
Denmark and Serbia have met three times with the Danes winning on each occasion.
Denmark have lost only one of their last 14 internationals.
Serbia have won only two of their last eight.
Prediction
Denmark are the clear 6/5 favourites with LiveScore Bet for this high-stakes Group C shootout, and are recommended at that price.
Both sides have produced flashes of decent football over the past week or so, yet it's not been good enough for either to put a win on the board.
Neither side has taken chances, though Denmark have carved out a lot more - 32 compared to 21 - and that could prove critical. Indeed, Serbia have only mustered five efforts on target in their fixtures against England and Slovenia.
Serbia are in the very simple position of knowing they need to win to have any chance of going through, though a lack of creativity through midfield and question marks over their discipline as the pressure ratchets up may work against them.
Denmark would take a draw but may well be offered more as Serbia have to commit bodies forward and that could offer Hjulmand's men opportunities on the break.
Serbia are not in the hottest of form - two wins in their last eight - and made hard work of just qualifying for these finals.
Denmark are ranked 11 places higher by FIFA than Serbia and can emphasise that difference by securing a precious win.
