Denmark 1-0 Switzerland - European Championship Qualification 2019 Statistical Preview

Age Hareide has very few injury concerns to contend with, though his main selection dilemma arguably comes up front, where Christian Gytkjaer, Kasper Dolberg and Andreas Cornelius are in competition.
Robert Skov will hope to get the nod on the left wing over Martin Braithwaite, while Joachim Andersen and Philip Billing are potential debutants.

The likes of Steven Zuber, Francois Moubandje and key man Xherdan Shaqiri are all still sidelined and missed out on the crucial double header with Denmark and Ireland.
Vladimir Petkovic experimented with a 3-4-3 formation last month and it remains to be seen whether he will stick with said tactic, with Admir Mehmedi and Remo Freuler competing for a place in the side.

Prediction

Undoubtedly one of the biggest games of the break, Denmark and Switzerland are separated by just one point as they chase table-toppers Ireland in Group D.
The pressure is certainly on the hosts to get the victory, with their visitors having a game in hand and knowing that three points on the road would see them leapfrog the Danes with the chance to do the same to Ireland and top the group by the end of the break.
These two sides are extremely evenly matched on paper and played out a sensational 3-3 draw the last time they met, with the Swiss blowing a 3-0 lead in the final ten minutes. A repeat outcome of result, if not scoreline, is certainly a distinct possibility.
