Manager: Morten Olsen
Captain: Jon Dahl Tomasson
FIFA World Ranking: 34
World Cup Appearances: 3
Best World Cup: Quarter-Finals – 1998

Denmark Team Profile

The Danes came through what looked a potential tricky Group 1 in the European sector with ease, topping the table above both Portugal & Sweden – both world class international nations. Morten Olsen’s side also achieved qualification with a game to spare and there superb form in qualifying will have raised their credentials and the expectations back home of a big summer in South Africa, possibly emulating their Quarter-Final success of France 1998.

The quarter-finals is the furthest the Danes have progressed in a World Cup, mainly because they’ve failed to qualify for the big event on nine occasions. They didn’t make the cut for Germany 2006, much to the dismay of the loyal followers back home, so perhaps the Denmark squad owe their fans with a big performance in this summers showcase. Morten Olsen does have a few players capable of shining on the big stage but the Danish fans should keep their feet firmly on the ground as, despite their steam rolling display in qualifying, they aren’t as well equipped as some other nations.

Manager

Morten Olsen has become a familiar face in international football after nearly a ten year stint at the Danish helm. He took over the reigns back in 2000 but it hasn’t all been plain sailing for the former Denmark international, reaching 102 caps for the Denmark national team as a player. Although the vast majority of his managerial years have been spent managing his native country, he does acquire  experience at the helms of your average club. Brondby, FC Koln & Ajax are all clubs Olsen has managed during his managerial career but it does appear he has found home in his current role as Denmark manager.

Morten Olsen did win several honours as a manager, including two Danish league titles & a Dutch league success with Ajax. However, he was sacked at his three of his previous managerial posts and some were surprised to see his name still associated with the National side after they failed to qualify for the 2006 World Cup in Germany. He came back with aplomb though and has now achieved arguably his greatest achievement as manager, guiding his own country to a World Cup, albeit at his second attempt. 

Denmark Key Players

Nicklas Bendtner

Bendtner is one of the younger players in this Denmark squad, but arguably the most talent of the lot. The tall Dane plies his trade for Arsenal in England, already adoring himself to the Arsenal fans with some big goals for the Gunners. He’s maturing well and at a stead pace, while he’s an ambitious lad and he will be eager to impress in South Africa.

He has a decent goal return for Denmark, averaging a goal every three games, but he did manage just the three goals during qualifying, which is a concern considering he’s their main man up front. Even so, he’s a player with immense talent and potential, and at Arsenal he’s developing into a fine footballer. There are still aspects of his game which need improving; awareness, forward positioning and his sharpness in front of goal, but he has time on his side and could be in for a big tournament leading the line for his country. 

Jon Dahl Tomasson

Tomasson may have been around the block at club level but his been a consistent performer for his country, playing in no less than 107 first team internationals for Denmark. With this, Tomasson brings added experience to the fort and manager Morton Olsen obviously felt this was key as Jon Dahl Tomasson was handed the captain armsband and will do so into the finals itself in which it could be Tomasson last World Cup as the former Feyenoord great will be close to 34 years-of-age when the tournament comes a calling next summer.

The Danish captains best attributes are his off the ball movement and his predator like finishing. If the opposition presents Jon Dahl with an opportunity to find the back of the net then more times then not Tomasson will comply. He has scored 51 goals at international level making him the second highest goalscorer for Denmark in their history.

Thomas Sorensen

Daniel Agger

Strengths

Denmark’s strong defence was undoubtedly what led them to such a successful qualifying campaign in a group which required plenty of concentration and maturity at the back. The Danes, who has a stalwart between their sticks in Thomas Sorenson, conceded just 5 goals on route to winning Group 1 in the European sector, keeping the likes of Sweden’s Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo at arms length.

The Danes have two robust centre-backs in Daniel Agger (Liverpool) and Michael Gravgaard, both of whom are not only a rock at the heart of the Danish defence but can be of great use from set-plays. Moreover, the former, Agger, is a great distributor of the ball and an often help his team spring an instant attack straight from defence with his accurate over-the-top balls.

Providing the Denmark defence remains well disciplined and organised at all times, Thomas Sorenson shouldn’t have too much work to do.

Weaknesses

The concern for Morten Olsen will be the lack of depth in Denmark in that while he may have a decent enough starting eleven, one more than capable of springing a surprise of two, where a number of his key players to fall foul to an injury in South Africa, he doesn’t have very many suitable replacements ready to fill the voids left by those instrumental to their chances.

Also, Denmark weren’t exactly prolific in front of goal during qualifying, but they’ve been very successful at winning games in a clinical manner, so that may not be a big negative, just a little niggle of concern.

Denmark Qualification for the World Cup

Sector: Europe
Group: 1
Position: 1st
Win-Draw-Lose: 6-3-1
Goals Scored: 16
Goals Conceded: 5

Denmark Qualifying statistics:

• Denmark lost just a single qualifier on route to securing a place in the finals, that coming in the form of a 1-0 home defeat against Hungary, a game where Denmark were already through and Hungary desperately needed all three points.
• Were it not for defeat to Hungary in the very last qualifier, Denmark would have ended qualifying undefeated in ten qualifiers. However, they did go on a nine match run without defeat beforehand.
• Denmark share the honour of having the second best defensive record in the European sector out of the eight six team groups, conceding just five goals.
• Soren Larsen, a Schalke player, finished qualifying as Denmark’s highest goalscorer with five goals, closely followed by Bendtner with 3.
• Denmark’s disciplinary record during qualifying was merit-able, with the Danes receiving just 14 yellow cards in ten qualifiers, and they didn’t receive a single red card.

World Cup Potential: 3/5

The Danes qualified for South Africa with a little something to spare but are still one of the unpopular bunch to win the FIFA World Cup in South Africa. Perhaps it’s because they don’t pack as much International pedigree as some, or just simply because many don’t rate the players in the their squad. Either way, we feel  Denmark could potentially be one of the summer’s surprise packages, especially as they’re part of a Group they could quite easily progress from: Group E – Holland, Japan and Cameroon.

Morten Olsen, the Denmark manager, has tightened up the Danish defence and the proof was in their qualification campaign which seen them concede just 5 goals in 10 qualifiers. However, their tally of just 16 goals scored in 10 qualifiers was the lowest of any of the European nations who finished top of their respective Group, so it would seem the Danes’ success through qualifying was brought about through their tidy defence and this enabled them to notch up sufficient points by winning the majority of their qualifiers by the odd goal. We suppose you could say Denmark are a clinical nation.

Their strength in depth is a big concern of ours as they don’t have world-class talent in every position. In fact, players with genuine World Cup quality are few and far between, but the Danes play as a team and didn’t need individual stars to get them this far. Even so, there’s only so far you can take a team without players who can really make things happen against the superior nations, and while we fancy Denmark’s chances of making it through their group, the knock-out stages is where they will find their match and then some. Still, on their day Denmark could spring a shock and are certainly one of the more valued E/W punts.

World Cup Fixtures and Results

Is The Future Bright For Oranje?

With Germany laying down the fiercest intent form a European nation at the 2010 FIFA World Cup so far, next to step up to the plate, is one of the most in form nations in World soccer, the Netherlands. Holland start their World Cup with a match against Denmark, in what many expect to be a lot of one way traffic heading towards the Danish net. That is simply down to the impressive qualification the Dutch had, and their free scoring during their warm up matches, which included trouncing Ghana and Hungary. While the Oranje are clearly the favourites to win this match and their group, there are signs that Denmark could put up some stern resistance if they bring their top game to the field. Of all the things said about the Dutch, of all the superlatives spouted forth about their style of play, they have always fallen short when it comes to tournament football. With their excellent form (having not been beaten since 2008), can the Dutch finally put a string of disappointments behind them and mount a serious and consistent challenge for the World Cup this time around? If they are to do so, then they can announce their intent with a solid win over Denmark.

The Dutch side is a star studded one, but one of their in form players, Bayern Munich winger Arjen Robben, won’t be taking part on Monday. The winger has been declared fit enough to take part in the World Cup at some point, and joined up late with the squad in South Africa. Robben picked up an injury to his hamstring in a warm up match, with doubts being raised over his ability to take part in the tournament. He seems to have enacted a miraculous recovery though, and coach Bert van Marwijk will look forward to his return, but won’t risk him unnecessarily. When you can call up Real Madrid’s Rafael van der Vaart as a straight replacement, then you can’t be in too much of dire straits. Can Holland turn their beautiful game into beautiful success? Too often they have come out of the blocks quickly, and that crashed after being over confident and arrogant. There is a swagger about the team, highlighted by Robben’s injury picked up by doing an unnecessary back heel trick pass, and their opponents will look to use that against them. If there is one weakness with the Dutch, then it will be their over confidence in the big pressure matches. But Marwijk has been trying to drill that out of them at camp, and will his wise words have an all important lasting impression on the current Dutch side. They have suffered two semi final heartbreaks in World Cup history, but can they go at least one step further?

Danish Dynamite Looking for Alternative Sparks To Ignite

Truth be told, because Denmark cannot put out their starting eleven, coach Morten Olsen may see his side struggle. What the Danes will bring to the World Cup table though, is organisation and strength in team work. They will know that they have not got the star ability to compete on an even keel with the Dutch in terms of attacking flair and individual brilliance, but their cohesion as a team could get them through, if they can hold out long enough and the Dutch start to lose their composure. This match should have been a fascinating battle for supremacy between two Arsenal strikers, with Holland’s Robin Van Persie going up against Denmark’s Nicklas Bendtner. But the Danes will have to make do without their young star striker who is recovering from a groin strain. The full fitness status of goalkeeper Thomas Sorensen (who hurt his elbow at the end of the Premier League season) is still in doubt, and that could hurt them a lot of he is not quite ready. Sorensen is their number one choice, and will probably be thrown in, as he is an incredibly safe pair of hands behind the back line.

The Danes will put out an organised defence none the less, led by Liverpool’s Daniel Agger, even though they have more players in the treatment room, unable to take part in their opener. Olsen will also have to find a way to inspire his side, who did finish top of their European qualification group ahead of Portugal, as their preparations have not gone to well. Denmark lost to World Cup minnows South Africa and Australia as part of their build up, failing to find the back of the net on each occasion. But one thing Olsen can call upon, is Denmark’s decent record against Holland in tournament football. Five times they have encountered each other, with the head to head equal at two wins each and one drawn match. Out of all the star studded teams at the World Cup, such as Spain, Brazil and Argentina, it could be the humble Danes who cause Holland problems. The Danes will know the Dutch quite well, with several of the squad plying their trade in the Dutch top flight. For some reason there is a quiet confidence around the Danish camp, that they have the tools to stop Holland, before the mighty Oranje can even get going in the tournament. But the Dutch, having seen fierce rivals Germany fire four past Australia, will, in their arrogant way, want to emulate them.

Match Odds
Holland to win: 8/15 at Bet365
Draw: 10/3 at Victor Chandler
Denmark to win: 6/1 at Ladbrokes

Asian Handicap Betting Tip: The Danes will be organised and tough for a lot of teams to break down, and they have some decent quality up front. Nevertheless, the Dutch have much sharper tools, and their incredible creativity should be able to break through the most resistant of teams. The Dutch are an interesting side to watch. They should win their group at a canter, and be a major threat throughout the tournament. Will they hit the wall though at some point and crash, as they inevitably do? It should not be in this match. Can’t really beat the value of Holland -1 for Evens at Paddy Power.

World Cup betting will pay much head to the deadline announcement day, as it is packed with some interesting International friendly matches. Team have to submit their final 23 man World Cup squads to FIFA on the deadline of June 1st, and while some, like Brazil, have already named their 23, there is much speculation about over the likes of who England manager Fabio Capello will cut from his squad after less than impressive warm up matches. All of the speculation will be over on June 1st, as the world learns who will be showing up at South Africa 2010 from all nations. It will also help in picking out the best of World Cup Odds, because some big players who are waiting on late fitness tests, could have a huge influence over proceedings, whether they make it or not. England’s Gareth Barry is one of the major names up there. All will be revealed,  but the announcements won’t take away from some interesting action, which could also influence your World Cup betting.

Australia v Denmark
The Australians can at least boast that they were the first team to arrive in South Africa for the World Cup. The Socceroos have landed themselves in Group D along with Germany, Serbia and Ghana, and so they have no easy task on their hands. They beat New Zealand in a warm up, but with all respect, that’s not much to write home about. Denmark won their qualification group ahead of Portugal, and it will be very interesting to see what they can do at the World Cup. They have a great chance of moving on to the second round, as they are in Group E with Holland, Japan and Cameroon. Denmark work well as a team and have some threatening talent up front, but it is their defence which will largely get them through. Their defence should be able to keep the Socceroos at bay, and further their claims as being an interesting outside bet.
Australia to win: 11/8 at Coral
Draw: 12/5 at Bwin
Australia to win: 9/4 at Victor Chandler

Switzerland v Costa Rica
Costa Rica gave France a good run for their money in a recent International Friendly, but are not on their way to the World Cup. Switzerland however, have a lot to play for, and will be quietly confident of reaching the second round. Much like Denmark, they are strong in terms of team spirit and fight. They impressed quite well in their qualification group from the European zone, but have to face leaders in World Cup Odds Spain, as well as Honduras and Chile. This match will give Switzerland some kind of taste of what is to come from the Latin sides they will meet at the World Cup, who will deal in speed and movement, whereas the Swiss will take a more neutral, efficient approach. Would lean towards Switzerland edging this one in the betting.
Switzerland to win: 3/5 at Totesport
Draw: 11/4 at Victor Chandler
Costa Rica to win: 9/2 at Bet365

Netherlands v Ghana
World Cup betting at Bet365 has seen Holland quietly creeping up in the World Cup Odds, shortening in price to 10/1 in the outright market. There has been little fuss or news coming out of the Dutch camp, as they have been going about their business without grabbing any headlines. The only big debate was over whether or not Ruud Van Nistelrooy would make the squad. He didn’t as the squad was cut down to size well ahead of the deadline. Holland made the USA look woeful in an international friendly, and took down Mexico as well. Now the Dutch, who got through their abridged qualification group with a 100% record, face World Cup participants Ghana.. For Ghana, they have lost Chelsea’s Michael Essien, but should still be a very strong team, as they showed at the African Cup of Nation. This match will be a great test of seeing where both teams are standing at ahead of the tournament, but Holland should edge it.
Holland to win: 5/11 at Coral
Draw: 10/3 at Bet365
Ghana: 8/1 at Victor Chandler

Portugal v Cameroon
Cameroon have been having to deal with a public spat between Samuel Eto’o and former World Cup star Roger Milla. Milla cited Eto’o for not having done anything for his country. Eto’o who has netted 44 times in 94 appearances for his country, was debating whether to go to South Africa 2010 after the personal attack on him, wondering why he should bother. But boss Paul Le Guen has picked him in his final 23, and the Inter Milan man will be going. Cameroon recently drew against Slovakia, and appear to be lacking a lot of punch, and may not be as much of a threat as hoped on African soil. Portugal have been unconvincing, and their World Cup Odds are reflecting that. They have plenty of talent, but coach Carlos Queiroz has not been getting the best out of them. They showed a lot of bottle in battling and scrapping to overcome a poor start in qualification to reach the finals, but don’t look strong enough. Interesting match, as both teams should be better than they are. Portugal maybe will have just a little more punch.
Portugal to win: 4/6 at Boylesports

World Cup Potential: 3/5

The Danes qualified for South Africa with a little something to spare but are still one of the unpopular bunch to win the FIFA World Cup in South Africa.
