Fun fact: It’s hard to believe, but the 2022 World Cup in Qatar will be only the sixth World Cup in Denmark’s history. The Danes have taken part in the World Cup finals just as often as the Tunisians.

The subtle difference: Tunisia have always been eliminated in the group stage, while Denmark have always made it through the group in four of their five attempts. Their greatest success came in 1998, when they reached the quarterfinals.

Denmark World Cup 2022 preview

The 1992 European champions have experienced a true revival in recent years. Denmark had problems for many years, had to put up with terrible beatings, but have now been working for some time with a crystal-clear vision and philosophy. And suddenly, the small nation is one of the best that Europe currently has to offer.

The great rise in form in recent years certainly has something to do with coach Kasper Hjulmand, who is not only a great tactician but also an absolute top bloke when it comes to dealing with the players.

The tragic events surrounding Christian Eriksen at the European Championship in 2021 brought the Danish Dynamite even closer together on and off the pitch.

Even if they don’t have any great goal scorers (the World Cup may come a little too early for Rasmus Höjlund), Denmark will have an extremely powerful squad in 2022, with plenty of stability and physicality in the defense. The full-back and wing-back positions in particular are superb, and coach Hjulmand also has top players in central midfield available.

In the UEFA Nations League, Denmark lost twice to runners-up Croatia in 2022, but defeated reigning world champions France twice, which no longer seems like a coincidence.

The Danes are not only physically strong, but also skilled with the ball, very organized and good at set-pieces. So, the opening match could definitely be easier for the Tunisians…

Tunisia World Cup 2022 preview

Tunisia is widely rated as the biggest underdog in Group D. But you definitely have to be careful with this prediction, because the North Africans have some exciting players who have always earned their money in Europe or were even born there in the second generation.

For example, we think Tunisia will be stronger this year than their group opponents Australia.

The Tunisians’ central axis should not be underestimated: In centre-back and central midfield, team boss Jalel Kadri’s squad has some interesting players, such as Ellyes Shkiri from 1.FC Köln or Brøndby’s young star Anis Slimane.

Dribbling strength on the wings could also become an important aspect in Tunisia’s favor.

Compared to Denmark, however, Tunisia might lack a physical punch. And even though Tunisia is quite tactically disciplined in its very conventionally practiced 4-3-3 system, it faces an opponent that is the epitome of tactical discipline in its first World Cup match.

On the second matchday, Tunisia will face Australia and this will be the game in which the North Africans are most likely to gain a point or even win.

Denmark – Tunesia Over Under Tip

Defensive stability is a top priority for Denmark for Kasper Hjulmand. Denmark usually plays in a 3-4-3 system, although the team boss also allows variations and uses a four-man backline.

However, the three-man backline is likely to become Denmark’s standard formation at the 2022 World Cup. Keeping the back of the box clean is therefore the first task for this team – and since they don’t have any classic top goal scorers or extremely goal-threatening wingers up front, you can’t expect the Danes to win by a large margin.

Instead, the approach of the up-and-coming team is pragmatic and geared toward results-based soccer.

When Tunisia is playing, there are rarely high scoring games to admire. Tunisia tend to give the ball away, especially against teams of higher quality, and lurk for chances on the counterattack. This will also be the case against Denmark, which is why we have to expect a rather reactive Tunisian team.

Accordingly, we bet that less than 2.5 goals will be scored.

Denmark – Tunesia Match Prediction

Kasper Hjulmand’s side is considered a well-rehearsed “tournament team”, has both technical and physical advantages over Tunisia and is probably also the more tactically disciplined team.

The betting odds of @1.50 on the strong Danes to win the opening match are quite lucrative.

Even though Tunisia may be more resilient than some analysts would currently expect, the difference between the two teams in the basic virtues of soccer is simply too great. We are therefore betting on a success for Danish Dynamite.

Denmark – Tunesia Correct Score Bet

Both teams are not known for scoring many goals. They stand for a stable defense and solid defending. So don’t expect the Danes to win by a landslide – the match could be a real test of patience for the favorites.

However, we are betting here that Denmark will score sooner or later.

Tunisia would have to play catch-up, because a point against Denmark would be essential if they want to have a say in advancing to the round of 16. That should create spaces for the Danes to counterattack and thus create more chances.

We’re betting on a 2-0 win for Denmark in the opener.
