Czech Republic are at -25 to win, a draw is at +275, and a Denmark win is at +280.

Team News

Vitezslav Lavicka has yellow cards on these players: Jankto, Travnik, Hubinek, Havlik.  These players will have to be careful in this match.

Key Man

Center back Michael Luftner might just have scored the goal of his life in the previous match against Italy.  It wasn't a winning goal, but it was the goal that proved to be the dagger in the hearts of Italians.  His thumping drive from all of 35 yards out found the back of the net, and looked like a typical kind of goal that an Italy would appreciate!  Luftner will be big in this match at keeping Denmark out and ensuring that his team have a chance of going to the next round of the competition.

Team Form

The Czechs began their tournament with a loss to Germany 2-0.  They rebounded, though, with a huge 3-1 win over a fancied Italian side to give themselves a chance of progressing to the next round.

Czech Republic U21 Predicted Starting Line-up

Expected Line-up: 4-2-3-1

Czech Republic U21 likely XI

  • Goalkeeper:Zima

  • Defenders:Havel, Simic, Luftner, Holzer

  • Defensive Midfielders:Hubinek, Soucek

  • Attacking Midfielders:Hasek, Travnik, Jankto

  • Forwards:Schick

Team News

Niels Frederiksen has yellow cards on the following players: Holst, Norgaard, Banggaard, Christensen, and Duelund.  However, those will be of little consequence as they won't be in the semi-final after their previous results.

Key Man

It may be a silly thing to many, but there will be a lot of people hoping just to see the Danes grab a goal here.  While it may prove to be a mere consolation in the end, it will do some good at regaining national pride and confidence.  Just a little.  IF there is going to be someone score for them, it will surely be striker Marcus Invartsen.  The 21 year old Nordsjaelland had eight goals in nine matches coming into the tournament, and that total needs to be increased in order for the Danes to go home with their heads held higher.

Team Form

Denmark began the tournament with a difficult match against Italy, and they ended up losing 2-0 against one of the tournament favorites.  On Wednesday, they faced another tough task in facing Germany.  They ended up losing 3-0 to the Germans in a very tough match.

Denmark U21 Predicted Starting Line-up

Expected Line-up: 4-4-1-1

Denmark U21 likely XI

  • Goalkeeper:Hojbjerg

  • Defenders:Holst, Banggaard, Maxso, Blaabjerg

  • Midfielders:Nielsen, Norgaard, Christensen, Hjulsager

  • Forwards:Duelund, Ingvartsen

Denmark come into this match knowing that they might just end up being named the worst side in this year\'s competition if they don\'t do something. They haven\'t earned a point, and even worse yet, they have not scored a goal yet. This is something that will not sit well with either the players or the manager. Remember, these men are playing for their international careers oftentimes. On the other hand, the Czechs have a golden opportunity to put themselves in a fine position to progress if they can just eke out a victory over the Danes in this match. That looks likely given how well they played against Italy on Wednesday.
After two full matches in all the groups, Denmark are the only team without a single point from their two matches.
