Denmark will face France at home on Sunday, 25 September. This is a crucial match in the Nations League in terms of the battle for the lead and relegation. The standings are not too straightforward. Denmark need only win. On top of that, Austria need to avoid losing to Croatia. France need to win as well, otherwise they could be relegated from the elite group of the Nations League. It's a big blow for the reigning trophy holders. Didier Deschamps' side claimed their first win in Matchday 5. They managed to secure three points against Austria. The game turned out to be a one-sided affair. France came out with the right attitude. The tandem of Giroud and Mbappe showed themselves very well. Olivier scored and delivered a goal. Interestingly, Giroud will be very motivated for the meeting against Denmark. It is far from certain that the veteran will be included in the World Cup bid, and the striker has two goals left to break the all-time record for goals for the French national team. The Tricolour defence also played at a very high level. The Austrians did not score once throughout the match. But it was not without disadvantages. The French team lost Menyan and Kunde through injuries. Unpleasant news, but the depth of the squad is huge. The losses will not affect the quality of the game. Denmark had all the chances to win the group in the fifth round. To do so, they needed to take three points from Croatia. The mission proved to be difficult. The Danes played one of their weakest matches in the last few years. Surprisingly, it was Croatia that defeated the Danes twice. In the first round, the Vikings were even able to beat France away. Then, objectively, there was no shortage of luck. The Scandinavians were very good on the counterattack. At the moment, Denmark's form does not look ideal. The Croats have created a lot of goalscoring chances. France's stellar attack will pose even more of a challenge. In terms of betting, it's worth thinking about the line on the total. The bookmakers suggest that the game will not turn out to be a result-oriented one. You could argue with that. A draw will not suit either team. France are also motivated to close out an unsuccessful first leg. There is relatively open football in sight. Denmark will not play only in defence at home. An important factor in favour of goals is the individual motivation of not only Giroud, but also Mbappe. Killian could become the youngest player in the history of the national team with thirty goals. France have had a streak of under-goings in past matches. It has not always corresponded to the actual balance of power. Now, it is logical to expect a breakthrough in attack.
