Denmark and Spain will clash at Telia Parken in the UEFA Nations League, where both sides aim to solidify their standing in Group 4 of League A. Spain, sitting at the top of the great, are already assured of a quarter-final berth, while Denmark remains in contention for a top-two finish. This match will also mark a new beginning for Denmark as Brian Riemer takes charge as head coach, aiming to instil fresh dynamism into the side.
Spain, under Luis de la Fuente, have excelled with a three-win and one-draw record, displaying impressive depth despite injuries to key players. Denmark, meanwhile, have shown solid form, winning two, drawing one, and narrowly losing to Spain in their first encounter.
Friday’s match promises intensity, with Spain slightly favoured given their attacking options.
Denmark Predicted Lineup
Riemer’s Denmark side could see a few changes, particularly in attack. Rasmus Højlund, despite limited success at the club level this season, is likely to spearhead the Danish attack, where his international record has been promising.
Christian Eriksen is anticipated to support him in a creative role, adding both experience and playmaking ability in midfield. Patrick Dorgu may earn a spot as a left wing-back, while Morten Hjulmand and Pierre-Emile Højbjerg are expected to anchor the midfield.
In defence, Joachim Andersen could partner with Jannik Vestergaard and Andreas Nelsson, aiming to provide solidity against Spain's relentless attackers.

Schmeichel; Andersen, Vestergaard, Nelsson; Bah, Hjulmand, Hojbjerg, Dorgu; Eriksen, Hojlund, Gronbaek
Spain Predicted Lineup
Despite injuries to Pau Torres, Dani Carvajal, and Rodri, Spain's squad remains formidable. Captain Álvaro Morata is expected to lead the front line, aiming to increase his goal tally.
With Nico Williams and Dani Olmo likely in supporting roles, Spain should have ample creativity in the final third. Pedri and Zubimendi will likely orchestrate the midfield, while Pedro Porro could step in at right-back alongside a centre-back duo of Aymeric Laporte and Vivian.
At left-back, Marc Cucurella may get the nod over Alex Grimaldo.
