Japan v Denmark Preview

Japan manager Takeshi Okada has only player rated doubtful ahead of this crunch match with Denmark.

Defender Yasuyuki Konno has a slight niggle and could miss out.

Okada looks set to stick with the 4-1-4-1 formation with midfielder Keisuke Honda again performing the lone striker’s role.

Denmark will bring former Liverpool defender Per Kroldrup in to replace the suspended Simon Kjaer.

Despite a groin problem, Nicklas Bendtner looks set to start upfront alongside veteran Jon Dahl Tomasson. Missing out, however, is midfielder Daniel Jensen who has an achilles problem. He will be replaced by Martin Jorgensen.
