Our pick: Great Britain – Denmark: Denmark/+4.5 goals

17.05.2024 16:20

Great Britain can’t wait any longer for the World Cup and must pull out all the stops for the next game. After Austria’s win over Finland, it’s clear that a possible British win over the Austrians won’t be enough to defend their place in the elite division of the World Cup. If they want to have a chance of staying in, they need to succeed against either Norway or Denmark.

So they will try to play active offensive hockey against the Danes on Friday to fuel their hopes of a crucial win. Three years ago, they already showed that they can beat the Danes. Then they managed to fight for a draw in regulation time and were not far from victory.

Denmark will use the British activity to launch deadly counter attacks that the British defence cannot cope with. Although on paper the Danes do not have as strong a squad as in previous years, they managed to give the Czech team a lot of grief and beat Austria 5-1, with the Austrians being the sensation of the Prague group of the World Championship.

What to bet on:

The Danes are the paper favourites for the Great Britain-Denmark match, as they have a better league and a better overall roster in the tournament than their opponents, who have posted a frightening 2:15 record in three games. Denmark will win and score at least five goals.

Confidence:

7/10
