The Euro qualification match between Denmark and Kazakhstan will take place at Parken on Sunday at 12:15 am IST.
In Copenhagen, Denmark and Kazakhstan hopes of securing a potentially pivotal victory in their Euro 2024 qualifying group. The top four teams in Group H are separated by a mere single point, making this match one of the most important remaining fixtures in their respective campaigns. Denmark might have believed they had a relatively easy group, as it lacked any European powerhouse. However, Denmark has struggled to secure a top-two position. They managed only a 1-1 draw in Slovenia and previously suffered a 3-2 loss to Kazakhstan. Kazakhstan came from being 2-0 down with 20 minutes to go to achieve one of their most significant wins.
Kasper Hjulmand’s team has subsequently put together a four-game unbeaten streak. However, their 1-0 wins against Northern Ireland and Finland were accompanied by close VAR decisions and a late winner by Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in the latter match. Hojbjerg’s goal moved Denmark one point ahead of Finland into second place. Meanwhile, Kazakhstan is aiming to qualify for a major tournament for the first time, they have already secured a playoff spot through their performances in the UEFA Nations League.
They have collected 12 points from six games, which includes four wins in five matches. Although they managed a narrow 1-0 victory at home against Northern Ireland in their last outing, they faced a 1-0 loss to Finland the next match. Apart from a home fixture against the underdogs San Marino, Kazakhstan faces each of their direct competitors on the road. Nevertheless, they seem to welcome this challenge, understanding the potential rewards if they can collect at least four points from their triple clash in Denmark, Finland, and Slovenia.
Denmark’s probable starting lineup: Schmeichel, Kristensen, Christensen, Andersen, Maehle, Norgaard, Hojbjerg, Skov, Eriksen, Lindstrom, Hojlund
Kazakhstan’s probable starting lineup: Shatskiy, Bystrov, Alip, Marochkin, Tapalov, Tagybergen, Beysebekov, Dosmagambetov, Zaynutdinov, Orazov, Samorodov
