France beat Australia 4-1 in the first round of their World Cup group D match in Qatar, while Denmark share only 1 point with Tunisia as the game ended in a 0-0 draw.
The next schedule, the French team will compete against the Danish team in the second round of Group D. If the Les Bleus team can beat the Danish team in this match, then Kylian Mbappe et al will collect 6 points, automatically securing the group qualification quota and can qualify for the knockout round.
But Denmark did not come without preparation. The Danish team is currently 10th in the FIFA ranking list. De Rød-Hvide, nicknamed the Danish team, is known as the strongest dark horse at this World Cup, one of the reasons because at Euro 2021 the Danish team has qualified for the European Cup.
Kasper Hjulmand’s squad are even one place higher than Germany, so of course they have high expectations. Denmark even managed to be ranked No.3 in the FIFA world in 1997.
At the 2018 World Cup in Russia, the Danish team also successfully advanced to the eighth knockout round, but in the end they lost to Croatia who became the runner-up of the World Cup.
France does have a very good squad strength. Didier Deschamps has summoned all the players involved in all European competitions to strengthen Les Bleus in maintaining their World Cup champion status.
But France must be careful because they suffered two defeats by the Danish team with a score of 2-1 and 2-0 this year in the UEFA Nations League matches. Therefore, whether or not the French team can reply to the UEFA nations League double play in this match will also be of great interest.
