Portugal – Denmark: second step to South Africa

World Cup Qualifying continues. At Alvalade Stadium, Portugal will host Denmark on Wednesday. On Saturday, while Portugal beat Malta 4-0, Denmark has problem in the visit in Hungary (0-0).

During previous matches Portugal have won seven matches (20 goals) while Denmark won only one (nine goals). Denmark never won an official match, but they won the last one played at Brondby.

What is the sensation? It is not the best Danish instant. Portuguese history and Portuguese great moment say that they can beat Denmark at home. By the way Lusitans know that Denmark is better than Malta, of course.

This is probably the most intriguing and competitive match of the day outside of Croatia-England. I don't see Portugal coming away with less than 3 points today.
