Germany vs Denmark team news

The hosts are sweating over the fitness of Antonio Rudiger and will be without his fellow centre-back Jonathan Tah.

Rudiger looked to have injured himself during the celebrations of Niclas Fullkrug's stoppage time equaliser against Switzerland, while Tah received his second booking of the tournament and is now suspended for the Denmark match.

Predicted XI: Neuer; Kimmich, Schlotterbeck, Anton, Mittelstadt; Kroos, Andrich; Musiala, Gundogan, Wirtz; Havertz

Denmark defensive midfielder Morten Hjulmand is also suspended after receiving his second yellow card of Euro 2024 in the 0-0 draw with Serbia.

Experienced Anderlecht midfielder Thomas Delaney replaced him against Serbia last time out and looks set to deputise again here.

Predicted XI: Schmeichel; Andersen, Vestergaard, Christensen; Bah, Delaney, Hojbjerg, Maehle; Eriksen; Wind, Hojlund

Germany vs Denmark Analysis and Predictions

After a red-hot start to the tournament which saw them put five past Scotland on the opening night, Germany continued with a winning performance against Hungary on matchday two.

The momentum of Nagelsmann's men somewhat cooled in their final group stage outing, though, where they needed a 92nd-minute strike from Niclas Fullkrug to rescue a point against Switzerland.

Nevertheless, having already secured their spot in the knockouts, Germany could afford a slight lapse in performance before the cut-throat business really begins.. The dearth of talent available to Nagelsmann in attacking areas speaks for itself, but the loss of first choice centre-back duo Rudiger and Tah could narrow the gap between themselves and their Danish counterparts on Saturday evening.

Though Kasper Hjulmand's side are hardly the most fruitful going forward, they do possess a striker in Rasmus Hjulmand who netted seven goals during qualifying.

The Manchester United forward has not yet found his feet at Euro 2024 but would fancy his chances against the cold Nico Schlotterbeck and Waldemar Anton, as Denmark look to repeat their heroics of the tournament's previous iteration three years ago.

Ultimately, the added quality of the Germans should shine through with a victory at Signal Iduna Park on Saturday. However, some shaky German defending in the group stage suggests Denmark can possibly get themselves on the scoresheet before the 90 minutes are up.
