Recent form

Portugal

Portugal have shown mixed form in their recent UEFA Nations League matches, with three wins, two draws, and one loss in their last six games. The team have been prolific in attack, scoring an impressive 11 goals at an average of 1.83 per game, whilst maintaining a relatively solid defence, conceding only 5 goals at 0.83 per game. A standout performance came in their 5-1 thrashing of Poland, demonstrating their potential for high-scoring encounters. Portugal have struggled to keep clean sheets, managing only one in their last six matches, with both teams scoring in 67% of the games. Their goal difference of +6 highlights their overall positive performances, despite the recent loss to Denmark breaking a three-match unbeaten run. The team's ability to score consistently, coupled with their occasional defensive lapses, has led to an even split between matches going over and under 2.5 goals.

Denmark

Denmark's recent form has been a mixed bag, with two wins, two draws, and two losses in their last six UEFA Nations League matches. The Danes have shown resilience in defence, keeping three clean sheets and conceding just 0.83 goals per game on average. However, their attacking output has been modest, scoring only six goals across these fixtures, averaging one goal per match. Interestingly, 67% of Denmark's recent games have seen under 2.5 goals, suggesting a tendency towards tighter, lower-scoring affairs. Their most recent outing saw them secure a narrow 1-0 victory against Portugal, potentially boosting their confidence moving forward. While there are no notable winning or losing streaks to report, Denmark's ability to avoid defeat in four of their last six matches (two wins, two draws) indicates a level of consistency that could serve them well in future competitions.

Recent home/away form

Portugal

Portugal have been in impressive form at home, remaining unbeaten in their last six matches with four wins and two draws. The Seleção have shown a particularly strong attacking prowess, netting 11 goals in these fixtures, including a notable 5-1 thrashing of Poland in their most recent home game. Defensively, they've been solid as well, conceding only four goals and keeping two clean sheets. Portugal's matches tend to be high-scoring affairs, with 67% of their games seeing over 2.5 goals. Their consistent performance is evident in their three-match winning streak at home, demonstrating their dominance on Portuguese soil. The team have been particularly effective in the UEFA Nations League, winning all three of their recent home matches in the competition.

Denmark

Denmark's recent away form has been rather underwhelming, with the team failing to secure a victory in their last five matches on foreign soil. The Danes have managed to hold their ground with three draws, including goalless stalemates against Serbia and Switzerland, whilst suffering two losses. Their defensive record has been somewhat mixed, conceding six goals across these fixtures but also keeping a clean sheet in their most recent outing. Notably, Denmark have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring only three times in five matches, with a particularly lean spell of two consecutive games without a goal. The majority of their away encounters have been low-scoring affairs, with 80% of matches featuring fewer than 2.5 goals, suggesting a trend towards tighter, more defensive contests when Denmark play away from home.
