1. 📋 Form & Momentum

Germany are in red-hot form—six consecutive wins, including clean sheets in their past three outings. Their 2–0 win over Poland in the Euros opener was marked by dominance and control.

Denmark’s xG was below 0.5 versus Sweden, highlighting trouble in breaking down organized defenses and their current attacking limitations.

3. 🎯 Goals Scored & Conceded

Germany have scored freely—24 goals in their last five matches—while conceding just twice. Their defensive structure and quality of transition play have been key.
Denmark’s attack shows signs of fatigue—only one goal in their last two outings—and their defense has been leaky in high-pressure games.

4. 🚑 Injuries & Squad Availability

Germany are near full-strength with no major absences reported. Forward Lina Brand should continue leading the attack after her strong start.
Denmark remain without some creative midfield options due to rotation and fitness, limiting their tactical flexibility.
