England and Denmark would go at each other in the semifinals of the European Championship with both sides eyeing a place in the final. Read on for our expert tips and predictions.

England heads into this semifinal matchup having beaten the Danes 12 times in 21 meetings while Denmark won only five of those matches. However, both sides were pitted in the same group in the recently concluded UEFA Nations League group stage with Denmark picking up four points in their two-legged tie with the Three Lions.

A home game feel for the English

England would feel like this is their time with both the semifinal and final matchup being played in the English capital, London. As such, both games- if they progress through- would certainly feel like a home game. They head into this semifinal matchup having kept clean sheets since the beginning of the tournament. Harry Kane was the star of the show as the captain- with a brace- led his side to an impressive 4-0 victory against Ukraine in the quarterfinals.

29 years ago, Denmark shocked the football world by beating Germany in the Euro 92 final. The side didn’t even qualify for the tournament as they were only added due to Yugoslavia’s disqualification. Kasper Hjulmund and his troops would be keen on achieving a similar feat as they find themselves just two games away from being crowned champions. In their quarterfinals matchup, they dug deep to get rid of Czech Republic with the help of a 2-1 victory.
