Update:

Denmark will look to secure qualification for a third consecutive World Cup when it faces Czechia in a high-stakes UEFA playoff final on Tuesday night in Prague.

The Danes arrive with momentum after a dominant 4-0 win over North Macedonia in the semifinal, a performance that underlined the strength of Brian Riemer’s squad. Despite expectations of automatic qualification, Denmark were edged out by Scotland in their group and have had to take the longer route.

Czechia, meanwhile, endured a far more dramatic path. They came from two goals down against Ireland, forcing extra time before completing the comeback on penalties. That resilience has defined their campaign, particularly at home, where they remained unbeaten during qualifying.

While Denmark boast the stronger squad on paper, Czechia’s defensive structure and home support make this a far more balanced contest than their respective semifinals might suggest.
