Denmark and Portugal meet in the UEFA Nations League, with both sides winning their most recent match in this competition. Denmark won 2-0 at home, while Portugal also won 2-1. This game is therefore a measure of two teams that are finding their rhythm. Denmark came through a tough World Cup qualifying campaign with a 4-0 win and a 1-1 draw before stumbling to a 2-3 defeat in the Nations League, then bouncing back with a 2-0 win in their next match. Portugal, meanwhile, had both wins and losses in their World Cup campaign before putting together back-to-back victories in the Nations League. If Denmark score first from their attack that keeps pressing the opponent, Portugal will have to open up more to chase an equaliser, which would make for an entertaining end-to-end game. But if Portugal take the lead first, Denmark, who have more possession, will have to step up the tempo, and the game could end with a narrow scoreline.
