Three years after their semifinal match in the most recent European Championship, England and Denmark square off once again this time in a Group C showdown of Euro 2024 on Thursday at Frankfurt Arena in Frankfurt, Germany. In 2021, the Three Lions won 2-1 in extra time after Harry Kane followed up his penalty kick being saved by knocking home the rebound to score. England advanced to the final, which they famously lost to Italy on penalties. This year, the Three Lions can clinch a spot in the knockout round with a win over the Danes.
Kickoff is set for noon ET. England are the -145 favorites (risk $145 to win $100) in the latest Denmark vs. England odds, with the Danes the +490 underdogs. A draw is priced at +250 and the over/under for total goals scored is 2.5.

Why you should back England
The Three Lions have been excellent defensively in the biggest competitions recently. Entering Euro 2024, England had more clean sheets (eight) than goals conceded (six) in 12 games over the past two tournaments. They also only allowed four goals in eight qualifying matches for Euro 2024. In the team's 1-0 win over Serbia on Sunday, England gave up only one shot on target.
In addition, England have a plethora of elite goal scorers who are proven at the highest levels. Harry Kane is coming off a 36-goal season for Bayern Munich and is England's all-time leading goalscorer with 63. Jude Bellingham (19 La Liga goals last season) helped Real Madrid to a Champions League and La Liga double and scored England's only goal on Sunday. Cole Palmer, who's likely to come off the bench, scored 22 goals last season for Chelsea, second to only Erling Haaland in the Premier League. See which team to pick here.

Why you should back Denmark
The Danes have a world-class playmaker in the middle in Christian Eriksen. He suffered cardiac arrest during a match against Finland in the 2021 European Championships before being resuscitated by a defibrillator. Now, the 32-year-old midfielder leads Denmark in goals with 42. In Sunday's 1-1 draw against Slovenia, Eriksen scored a beautiful goal, using his chest to redirect the ball before volleying it past keeper Jan Oblak.
Eriksen and the rest of the Danish attack will face a potentially vulnerable England backline. England's new centerback pairing of John Stones and Marc Guehi has limited experience playing together after Harry Maguire was left off the roster. See which team to pick here.
