Denmark vs Greece Preview, Betting Odds and Predictions – 12/10/2025

After a dominant start to their World Cup 2026 qualifying campaign, Denmark will aim to tighten their hold on Group C when they host Greece in Copenhagen on Sunday. The Danes sit atop the group with seven points from three matches and will look to repeat their convincing 3-0 victory over the Greeks from last month to stay on course for an automatic qualification spot.

For Greece, however, the road to recovery looks steep. After beginning their campaign with a 5-1 win over Belarus, Ivan Jovanovic’s side suffered back-to-back defeats. They lost 0-3 against Denmark and 1-3 versus Scotland. The collapse in Glasgow was particularly damaging. Despite taking the lead through Kostas Tsimikas, defensive lapses cost them dearly as Scotland struck three times late on.

Now sitting third in the group, four points adrift of both Denmark and Scotland, Greece must win in Copenhagen to keep their faint qualification hopes alive. Their once-sturdy defense has been exposed in recent matches. Anything less than victory could effectively end their World Cup dream.

FT: Scotland 3-1 Greece

Heart breaking finish in Scotland, as the Ethniki dominated and finally got the goal up via Tsimikas in the 62nd minute, the team would then give up the lead just two minutes later and then go onto to concede two more very poorly defended goals.

Denmark vs Greece Preview

Brian Riemer’s men have found their rhythm at both ends of the pitch, following up their earlier wins with a 6-0 demolition of Belarus in midweek. That result underlined Denmark’s attacking power, with Rasmus Hojlund scoring twice and Patrick Dorgu adding his name to the scoresheet. The Danes have now gone four straight games without conceding and boast a healthy +9 goal difference, making them the clear frontrunners in the group.

Under Riemer’s leadership, Denmark have rediscovered their defensive steel and attacking balance, winning five of their last nine matches while climbing back into the world’s top 20. The team’s mix of youthful energy and tactical discipline has allowed them to control games comfortably. With qualification within touching distance, they’ll look to continue that momentum in front of a packed Parken Stadium.

Denmark vs Greece Over/Under Predictions

Over 2.5 Goals @ -115 as per BetMGM

This fixture has all the makings of a high-scoring encounter. Denmark have been in ruthless form in front of goal. Their attacking trio, led by Rasmus Hojlund, has been clinical, and they’ve scored at least three goals in four of their past five outings. Greece, meanwhile, have shown they can also contribute to high-scoring games, having seen four or more goals scored in four of their last five matches. As a result, this game is likely to produce chances at both ends and Over 2.5 Goals @ -115 offers excellent value.

Denmark vs Greece Player Picks

Rasmus Hojlund to score anytime @ +150 as per BetMGM:

Hojlund is in fine form and central to Denmark’s attack. He has 3 goals in 3 World Cup qualifiers for the Danes and just hit a brace in the 6–0 win over Belarus. At club level, he’s started hot too (4 goals in 6 apps across Serie A and the UCL for Napoli). Likely to play 80–90 minutes as the lone No.9, Hojlund will get multiple high-quality chances, making this a value play.

Denmark vs Greece Final Scoreline Prediction

Given Denmark’s consistency, home advantage and superior squad depth, the hosts are strong favourites heading into this clash. With Hojlund in top form and the Danes boasting one of Europe’s best defensive records, they’ll be confident of securing another routine win. Greece will fight to stay alive, but the gulf in form suggests this could be another long night for the visitors.
