Denmark vs Portugal Prediction and live broadcast- UEFA Nations League

The upcoming UEFA Nations League quarter-final between Denmark and Portugal on March 20, 2025, is highly anticipated, particularly given the contrasting trajectories of both teams. Portugal, boasting a strong squad led by Cristiano Ronaldo, enters the match as favorites after finishing at the top of their group. Conversely, Denmark has experienced inconsistency in recent performances, having not won in their last four matches . This disparity raises questions about Denmark's ability to compete effectively against a formidable opponent like Portugal.

Denmark and Portugal will go head-to-head in the first leg of their UEFA Nations League quarter-final on Thursday night as both sides look to get one foot in the semi-finals.

Brian Riemer's side qualified for this stage despite picking up just two wins in a group containing current European champions Spain, which saw them finish up with eight points. They are, however, winless in their last four games after defeats to Spain and draws against Serbia and Switzerland. Roberto Martinez's side on the other hand claimed four wins from their six group games to finish top of a group including Scotland, Croatia and Poland.

Denmark possible starting lineup: Schmeichel; Kristensen, Andersen, Vestergaard, Maehle; Hjulmand, Norgaard, Eriksen; Skov Olsen, Biereth, Damsgaard

Portugal possible starting lineup: Costa; Dalot, A. Silva, Dias, Mendes; Vitinha, Neves; Neto, Fernandes, Leao; Ronaldo

Brian Reimer experienced a tough start to life as head coach of Denmark, failing to win either of his first two matches - a 2-1 loss to Spain and a goalless draw against Serbia back in November. The former Anderlecht boss will be hoping to secure his first victory here in Copenhagen, but his side have lost each of their last three matches against this opponent and failed to score in the last two.

Portugal, meanwhile, are seeking another Nations League title after winning the inaugural competition in 2018/19. Roberto Martinez's men are one of the favorites to lift the trophy and as a result, the bookmakers have installed the hosts as the underdogs in this match. Let’s take a look at the key stats at play in this one.

The match will be broadcast across various platforms including Fox Sports and fuboTV in the United States . As anticipation builds for this contest in Copenhagen’s Parken Stadium at 3:45 PM ET, football enthusiasts are eager to witness whether Denmark can overcome their recent challenges or if Portugal will assert their dominance once again.
