Key Points to Consider
Head-to-Head: These two sides last matched up in an International Friendly on October 7 and Denmark won 4-0.
Prediction
Faroe Islands hosts Denmark at Tórsvøllur this Saturday at 2:45 PM ET in a Group F game of the Qatar World Cup European Qualifiers.
Denmark has a commanding lead in Group F with 12 points in four games while Faroe Islands is in fifth place with just one point in four games. This is clearly a must-win spot for the home team but it seems like an uphill climb. Denmark has a perfect record after four straight wins and they’re clearly the better team. Faroe Islands is coming off a 4-0 home loss against Israel last Wednesday while Denmark beat Scotland 2-0 at home on Wednesday, behind goals from Daniel Wass and Joakim Maehle.
I can’t see Denmark struggling to win this game. There are no guarantees in sports but this is as close to a lock as you will find. Faroe Islands is pretty much out of contention and Wednesday’s home loss against Faroe Islands was clearly deflating while Denmark has been playing at a high level for a while and they have a very talented roster. The only concern is that they might “take it easy” on their opponent but the best bet here is Denmark winning by at least three goals at 2.04.
Analyst’s Pick
Denmark -2.5 at 2.04
