DENMARK WORLD CUP BETTING TIPS
Denmark qualified top for the 2010 World Cup Finals from a group including Portugal, Hungary and North European rivals Sweden. On the surface, this is a fairly impressive performance. But dig a little deeper and you’ll see that Portugal spent most of the qualifying campaign shooting themselves in the foot. Meanwhile, Albania, of all countries, contrived to take points of Sweden, Portugal and Denmark.
This isn’t to diminish the achievement of the Danes, more to put it into context.
At the Finals itself, Denmark find themselves in a Group alongside Holland, Cameroon and Japan. The bookies have them as second favourites for the Group, which has surprised me somewhat.
A quick look at their squad suggests that many of their players (Rommedahl, Gronkjaer, Jon Dahl Tomasson) are well over thirty and are past their best. Granted, Tomasson still scores goals, but he’s playing in the Dutch league, not La Liga.
They do have one or two players that could do well. Christian Paulsen and Ajax’s young midfielder Christian Eriksen both look quality, but I don’t think they have enough to trouble either Holland or the Cameroon. And with wingers like Rommendahl and Gronkjaer, there’s no guarantee of any quality balls into the box – not for nothing was Gronkjaer nicknamed ‘Dracula’ at Chelsea, such was his fear of crosses.
