Our prediction for this match:
Buoyed by a hard-fought 1-0 win over Hungary, Serbia will look to give fans yet another reason for celebration when they take on Denmark in Parken on Tuesday evening. Aleksandar Mitrovic, who scored the winner in Budapest, should continue to lead the line for the Eagles as Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic has been omitted. Fiorentina defender Nikola Milenkovic should be recalled to the starting XI after he was rested in the triumph over Hungary.
The Danes, on the other hand, suffered a 4-2 loss to the Netherlands on Christian Eriksen’s return to the national team. The Brentford midfielder is pushing for a start, as well as Hoffenheim man Jacob Bruun Larsen. Anyhow, a close encounter is on the cards in Copenhagen, and we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. In their last meeting in a competitive match Denmark defeated Serbia 2-0.
Highlighted Player (Yussuf Poulsen):
Yussuf Poulsen is a Danish footballer who started his youth career at BK Skjold. At the age of 14 he joined Lyngby and he made his debut for the first team on 4 December, 2011. He came as a substitute in a match against Horsens after 84 minutes, substituting Mathias Tauber. However, he made no more than five league appearances for Lyngby in the 2011/2012 season.
Despite the fact that Lyngby dropped to Denmark 1st Division, Poulsen did not leave the club in the summer transfer window and it has to be noted that he made 30 appearances for the Vikings in the 2012/2013 campaign. On 4 July, 2013 he signed a deal with Leipzig and he has been playing for the German outfit ever since.
The 193-cm-tall attacker is capable of playing as both right and left winger. Poulsen’s father is Tanzanian, but he decided to represent the Danish national team. He made his debut for the senior team against Albania on 11 October, 2014. Poulsen scored his first ever goal for Denmark in a 2-0 win over Serbia on June 13, 2015.
Highlighted Team (Serbia):
Serbia have been playing as an independent nation since 2006. The Serbs made it to the 2010 FIFA World Cup finals and despite defeating star-studded Germany in the group stages of the showpiece tournament in South Africa, they eventually failed to book their place in the last 16. The Eagles, though, failed to qualify for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil as they experienced all sorts of problems in their qualifying group.
A number of top-class footballers played for Serbia and former Manchester United defender Nemanja Vidic is regarded as one of the best players in the history of the Serbian national team. Vidic scored two goals in 56 appearances for Serbia and he announced his retirement from the national team on 24 October, 2011.
The Eagles play their home game at Stadion Rajko Mitic and it has to be noted that they defeated Czech Republic 3-1 in their first international game under the name of Serbia. Serbia play their home games in red shirts and red shorts, while the colour of their away kit is white.
