"Christian Eriksen has been monied from Riemer's squad. Despite turning 39 later in the year, Celtic goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel will start between the sticks here and earn a 115th international cap. Completing a blockbuster loan switch to Italian giants Napoli last week, Rasmus Hojlund should lead the line on Friday night. In what was a shock inclusion, Utrecht star Victor Jensen could earn a first international cap in Copenhagen."
"it is fair to say that Brian Riemer's side have struggled to find any real fluidity over recent times. Watching their Nations League adventure come to an end on March 23rd as they fell to an action-packed 5-2 aggregate defeat against Portugal, the Reds have mustered just a single win from any of their previous six competitive appearances. Coming under a hefty amount of scrutiny last summer as they failed to win any of their four EURO 24 showdowns,"
Denmark hosts Scotland in Copenhagen for the opening World Cup qualifying match. Denmark are seen as Group C contenders but have struggled for consistency, winning only once in their last six competitive matches. Denmark exited the Nations League after a 5-2 aggregate defeat to Portugal and faced criticism following a winless EURO 24 campaign. The home side have only one competitive defeat at home since June 2022. Christian Eriksen is absent from the squad; Kasper Schmeichel will start and Rasmus Hojlund is expected to lead the line, while Victor Jensen could earn a first cap. Scotland lost Nations League A status after a 3-1 aggregate defeat to Greece and face pressure with few consecutive wins.
