In our third of four quarterfinal matches in Euro 2020, Denmark will take on the Czech Republic Saturday. The match is set to kick off at noon ET and will take place at Baku Olympic Stadium in Baku, Azerbaijan. Below, we preview the Czech Republic vs. Denmark odds and lines and make our best Euro 2020 bets, picks and predictions.
Denmark is continuing its iconic run since Christian Eriksen collapsed on the field. Since that game, it has gone 2-1-0 and outscored the opposition 9-3, while allowing 2 of those 3 goals in the loss to Belgium. Denmark is coming off a 4-0 victory over Wales in the Round of 16.
Ranked 10th overall in the FIFA World Rankings, Denmark is favored against the 40th-ranked Czech Republic.
The Czech Republic is coming off a 2-0 victory over the Netherlands. The Czech scored both of its goals after the Netherlands took a red card early in the second half.

Prediction
Denmark 2, Czech Republic 1
Money line (ML)
BET on DENMARK (+110) because it has looked great in the tournament and is playing a lower-ranked opponent. Now, there is also an option to get Denmark to advance at -190, which I like, but not even close to as much as the 90-minute money line bet.
There is reason to believe in the Czech Republic, especially after it held the Netherlands to 0 shots on targets. It really hasn’t had a bad game yet in the tournament, but Denmark has looked great.
It’s more about how good Denmark has looked than how bad Czech has looked. Denmark wore down a Wales side that’s 17th in the world rankings.
Over/Under (O/U)
“Lean” to the OVER 2.5 (+140) as it’s a better value, and there’s no way I’d place money on a -190 total in a Euro tournament that has had multiple 6-goal games.
Denmark scored 4 goals in each of its last two games. Without Eriksen, its attack isn’t as lethal, but it has managed to break down the opposition quickly.
