Republic of Ireland have the chance to avenge the 5-1 humiliation suffered at the hands of Denmark in the World Cup playoff game when it meets its nemesis in Dublin. Ireland have been bang average for several games now with manager Martin O Neil under pressure to reverse the fortunes of his side. The Danes, on the other hand, have made it to the second round of the World Cup and also beat Wales 2-0 in the opening match of the Nations League. Age Hareide knows what his best combination is something that cannot be said about his Irish counterpart. Here's all match information on Ireland vs Denmark game including live telecast, free live streaming, match timings, venue details and so on.
Denmark will field a 4-3-3 formation with key man Christian Eriksen deployed as a playmaker. In his absence, the coach will need to come up with a solution in the creative midfield role. Goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel and Simon Kjaer also miss out on the game as they recover from injuries. Hence, the Danes will be without several first-team stars for a visit to Ireland. Yussuf Poulsen will be a key man out wide as his industrious game makes him one of the first names on the team sheet.
Ireland have conceded a staggering nine goals in the last two outings and will have to plug in that leaky defence if they are to stand a chance in tonight's game. Ciaran Clarke and Shane Duffy will have to be at their best and absence of Eriksen from Denmark is welcome news for the duo. In midfield, Harry Arter and Jeff Henderick have not been authoritative in the past few games, and it is crucial they dominate against Denmark. Shane Long has not been amongst the goals which is a contributing factor in Ireland’s barren run. He has been passed fit to start against Denmark which is good news for Ireland.
Ireland against Denmark does not boast of big names, but there should be no shortage of drama or goals as witnessed in the World Cup playoff. A defeat will most likely lead to rolling of heads in the Irish camp, and this is what makes the game so interesting.
