Denmark and England face off on Wednesday, July 7 at 3 p.m. ET in the Euro 2020 semifinals. The match will air on ESPN. England is a -286 favorite to advance at DraftKings Sportsbook, while Denmark is a +220 underdog.

Denmark is finding a way to turn a scary incident with Christian Eriksen into motivation. The team needed a massive victory over Russia in the last group stage match just to get into the knockout round and has carried that momentum all the way to the semifinal. Kasper Schmeichel will need to be strong in goal again if Denmark wants to stop England’s potent attack.

England blanked Germany while getting Harry Kane going with his first goal of the competition. Kane turned that performance into two more goals against Ukraine in the quarterfinal round, meaning the striker could be rounding into form. Raheem Sterling continues to be excellent for England.

Denmark vs. England

Denmark: +800 (to advance +220)
Tie: +280
England: -143 (to advance -286)
Total goals: 2.5 (Over +135, Under -167)

Regular time ML pick: England -143
Team to advance pick: England -286
Best bet: Harry Kane to score (+140)

England’s defense has yet to concede a goal in this European championship, a somewhat surprising stat considering it was considered a weak spot for the bunch. Kane struggled in the first three games of the competition, but has three goals in the last two matches. He’s a good bet to score again here in the semifinal.
