2/1 Denmark v England Bet Builder Tip
Bet builder predictions that are eligible for Paddy Power Super Sub will be marked with this emoji ‘🔄️’.
🚀 Christian Eriksen to have 1+ shots 🔄️
📈 Odds: 1.25
The Manchester United midfielder is going through something of a hot streak in terms shots for his country at the moment.
Eriksen fired off five attempts in the opener against Slovenia, including the first goal, which adds to the five he struck against Sweden, and three against Switzerland in recent friendlies.
The midfielder has hit at least one shot in each of his last twelve starts for Denmark at an average of 2.19 per 90, up to and including the last World Cup.
There is every chance that he could shoot from a free-kick in this match, but he has been generous from open play as well because he has the freedom of knowing that he has Morten Hjulamnd and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg covering the space in behind him.
🛑 Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg to commit 1+ fouls 🔄️
📈 Odds: 1.53
Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is a good price to add to this bet builder for at least one foul.
He has committed at least one foul in each of his last eight starts for Denmark, and is highly likely to play the full game as well.
However, this is also about England and Jude Bellingham, Bukayo Saka, Phil Foden, and Trent Alexander-Arnold. Hojobjerg has the potential to be over-run in the middle of the park.
Bellingham and Foden both floated over into Hojbjerg’s usual space against Serbia, and Alexander-Arnold was also brought down in that same area against Serbia. Hojbjerg could have his work cut out for him if England demonstrate that kind of fluidity again.
🩹 Jude Bellingham to be fouled 2+ times
📈 Odds: 1.83
Bellingham has become a heavily marked man in England colours recently, and yet the bookmakers haven’t quite caught up to the recent international data which demonstrates this.
Bellingham is now up to 17 fouls against him in four internationals after Serbia continued the trend set by Belgium, Brazil, and Italy before them.
The Real Madrid man was also regularly fouled in La Liga last term, with an average of 2.8 fouls per 90 minutes against him domestically. Bellingham’s career numbers are well above two fouls per game, so this seems like a solid leg for a bet builder.
8/1 Denmark v England Longshot
Bet builder predictions that are eligible for Paddy Power Super Sub will be marked with this emoji ‘🔄️’.
🩹 Harry Kane to be fouled 1+ times 🔄️
📈 Odds: 1.25
The prices for Kane to be fouled are still very reasonable, despite Kane showing his regular England tournament propensity to be fouled, especially in the second half of matches when England are holding onto a lead.
Whilst it may not be exactly the same game situation here, Kane has become a master at using his body in order to get the decision from the referee. Physical battles are almost certain to happen here up against the likes of Joachim Andersen or Jannik Vestergaard and Kane can be relied upon to win at least one foul in these circumstances.
The England captain drew five fouls against Serbia, and this adds to the nine he racked up in the World Cup finals – at least one in every match. Looking back to the last Euros, Kane was fouled 14 times, again, at least one in every single match. He is a master of it in these important England competitions.
🚀 Morten Hjulmand to have 1+ shots 🔄️
📈 Odds: 2.40
The Sporting CP midfielder has been underpriced in the shots market here.
His primary job in the team is to provide energy and physicality off-the-ball, but Hjulmand also has the licence to join in going forward when the opportunity is there, allowing Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg to fill in the gaps defensively.
Therefore, Hjulmand’s shot figures for Denmark are much better than his club data would suggest, and this has gone under-the-radar so far with the bookmakers.
Hjulmand has 6 shots to his name for Denmark in 363 minutes of international football. This is a shot every 60 minutes, and whilst England may be slightly more difficult to get shots off against than most international teams, Hjulmand is more than happy to try his luck from range.
This is how he landed his shot in the opening match against Slovenia, and his shot map from Sporting last season also demonstrates this.
🚀 Jannik Vestergaard to have 1+ shots 🔄️
📈 Odds: 2.88
Another Dane who is being underestimated by the layers in the shot market is Leicester City’s giant defender.
He is priced at a big odds against price, despite recent evidence showing that Denmark have targeted using Vestergaard as an attacking weapon.
Denmark are likely to concentrate on set pieces against England because of the skill that they have at operating them in terms of their coaching staff, the delivery of Christian Eriksen, and the array of targets that they have in Vestergaard, Joachim Andersen, and Andreas Christensen, as well as the absence of Harry Maguire from the England team.
Vestergaard has had four shots in his last three international appearances, having had scarcely any in his previous appearances. This includes two against Slovenia in the first group game, one of which was on target. This is a value addition to the longshot.
