Published on July 3, 2021, the Czech Republic is set to face Denmark in the Euro 2020 quarter-finals at the Baku Olympic Stadium.
The Czech Republic barely scraped through to the last-16 stage, earning only four points from their three group games. They were drawn with the Netherlands in the first knockout round, but the Oranje's loss of a man proved crucial in their 2-0 win.
Denmark, on the other hand, lost their opening two group games to Finland and Belgium but managed to secure a 4-1 win over Russia in their final Group B clash. They finished second behind Belgium with a better goal difference.
The Czech Republic will employ their 4-2-3-1 formation, featuring Patrik Schick upfront, while Denmark will counter with their 3-4-2-1 setup.
According to Betika, the head-to-head odds are attractive, with the Czech Republic Win at 4.00, Denmark Win at 2.20, and a probable draw at 3.20.
Interestingly, the Czech Republic have drawn five of their last six matches against Denmark in all competitions, and there have been under 2.5 goals scored in their last five games (European Championship).
Denmark, however, are undefeated in their last six matches against the Czech Republic in all competitions, and there have been over 2.5 goals scored in their last three games (European Championship).
