FIFA Women’s World Cup: England vs Denmark Odds
The Lionesses and the Danes continue their World Cup campaign as they face off on Friday morning in one of the group stage’s most anticipated World Cup games. England vs. Denmark could be one of the most-watched matches of the tournament!
England squirmed past debutants Haiti in their opener on Saturday, with a win secured thanks to Georgia Stanway’s first-half penalty. The Lionesses are the defending European champions after winning all six games last summer. Their 2019 World Cup campaign saw them knocked out by eventual champions the United States in the semi-final in Lyon.
The Danes also tasted victory in their first tournament match in Australia and New Zealand, scoring an 89th-minute winner to beat China 1-0. Denmark, one of the original pioneers of women’s soccer, is back at the World Cup after 16 years away! They finished as runners-up at Euro 2017, which has helped recharge the team, ranked 13th in the world.

England are the Elite
The Lionesses are one of, if not the favorites, to win the World Cup. They have one of the deepest squads, with everyone able to swap in for each other. England had a shaky start against Haiti, but expect them to turn it around for the next couple of games. They come up against a strong Denmark team, deemed a dark horse to win the tournament. England could advance to the next round with a win on Friday.
Denmark, the Dark Horses
The 13th-ranked Danes are a definite dark horse to win the World Cup. Their odds are priced at +10000, and if they play as they did against China, there’s no doubt they could make a run. However, they come up against a strong England side who have just won the Euros. Denmark has beaten the Lionesses six times in their seventeen meetings so that they may notch a seventh win.
Soccer predictions
Denmark certainly poses a threat and can score seemingly out of nowhere. Meanwhile, England have yet to score from open play since the Finalissima in April when they beat Brazil on penalties after a 1-1 draw at Wembley.
The two sides have met 17 times down the years, with England winning eight matches, Denmark winning six, and three draws as well. Friday’s meeting in Sydney will be the first time the two teams have ever faced each other at a World Cup. It remains to be seen who gets the bump in the World Cup Group Standings.
