Team News
Ireland
Denmark
- Martin O'Neil has cut Richie Towell, Greg Cunningham, Ronan Curtis, Graham Burke, Daryl Horgan and Alan Judge from his squad to leave him with 26 players for matches against Denmark and Wales.
- Shane Long missed training on Tuesday but the Ireland manager expects the Southampton striker to be available to play Denmark on Saturday.
- Harry Arter is back in the fold after a bust-up with assistant manager Roy Keane last month, while James McClean is available after missing their UEFA Nations League opener.
- Ireland will be without captain Seamus Coleman because of injury and the Everton right-back looks set to be replaced in the team by Cyrus Christie.
- Star man Christian Eriksen is a huge doubt for Denmark and his absence would be a huge blow for the away side.
- Denmark do not have a like-for-like replacement for Eriksen and may have to revert to a 4-3-3 formation as a result.
- Martin Braithwaite and Kasper Dolberg are expected to compete for a starting berth in attack for Denmark.
Eriksen is out and Denmark are rather trash without him, I don't expect them to score more than 1. I'd look into btts and under 2,5.
