Six of the matches between the two teams have been in Copenhagen, where Denmark has achieved three wins and Belgium two. The draw in 2000 leaves the Danes undefeated against the Belgians at the Parken Stadion. The 3-1 victory in 1994 is the only one between the two national teams.
These two countries have met four other times in EURO matches, all of them in the qualifying round. Belgium won 2-0 at home and 1-2 in Copenhagen in qualifying for the 1972 UEFA European Championship. Johan Devrindt scored twice in each game. The Danes retaliated in the EURO ’96 finals qualifying round, winning both matches 3-1 to reach the finals.
Both teams met in a group stage of the 1984 UEFA European Championship in Strasbourg, and the match was memorable. Goals from Jan Ceulemans (26 ‘) and Frankie Vercauteren (39’) put Belgium ahead 0-2, but Fran Arnesen from a penalty four minutes before the break brought Denmark to life. Already in the second act, goals from Kenneth Brylle Larsen (60 ‘) and Preben Elkjær, six minutes before the end, qualified the Danes for the semi-finals at the expense of their rivals.
The last time both teams met was in a friendly in Copenhagen in June 2000, with Belgium trailing twice at the Parken in preparation for UEFA EURO 2000, of which they co-hosted. Jon Dahl Tomasson and goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel (father of current starting goalkeeper Kasper) from a penalty scored for the Danes, while Lorenzo Staelens, also from a penalty, and Marc Wilmots scored for Belgium.

Now, BET-IBC Tipster Team presents free predictions for the match:
Sherbet: We all know that Belgium is a strong rival in any competition but Denmark has given the surprise by qualifying so I bet they will give the surprise here too although in their last H2H they were defeated by a 4-2.
Realtu: My support here will go to Belgium, this will be a close match, no mistake, but comparing the two, Belgium has the advantage in my opinion, and so I will bet on their victory.
GC Sports Betting: Two top teams facing one another but I fancy Belgium to take all three points in this big clash. Belgium have beaten Denmark on the previous two occasions and can make it a hat trick of wins against them.
Kvasir: It feels like taking a risk with this bet, but I’m confident that Belgium will dominate the match. Since they have a solid defense, I think it will be a bit hard for Denmark to score.
Lady Murasaki: For this clash, I prefer the over market, since for me there is no clear favorite. The last three meetings of the Danish and Belgian teams ended with two or more goals 4-2, 0-2, and 3-2. So, this seems like a safer option.
Duarte: Decisive game for Denmark, who will play in a stadium in their country and must win if they want to continue to dream of qualifying for the next round. But Belgium are much better and have the opportunity to practically qualify for the next round. I see Belgium winning.
Mitch: Facing the semi-finalists of the last World Cup, Denmark is the underdog in this game. To be realistic, the Danes are solid, but their opponent is one of those who are hard to beat.
Asian Football Bets: Denmark has to throw all in after the unexpected fiasco against Finland and this will create a lot of goal scoring opportunities which Belgium would only welcome.
Tipster BetF: Denmark have been heart-breaking situation, Christian Eriksen’s condition left the team unbalanced and this will still affect their performance in this competition. Belgium are a strong team and they will be looking to secure one more win in this match up.
PortugalTipster: I see a more balanced game than the odds indicate. The Danes besides playing at home, are a very strong team collectively. They massacred Finland but ended up losing the first game on the only shot of the Finns. They will give everything to dedicate the victory to Eriksen.
Salahsyh: Denmark lost their first game against Finland. Eriksen got a heart attack in the game and is ruled out of the tournament. Belgium won by three goals against Russia. Belgium are so strong. I expect them to win.
Igor Tips: Belgium already demonstrated why they are one of the favorites to win the tournament. Instead, Denmark might not be 100% focused after Eriksen’s current health situation.
LLYTips: Recently, Belgium has had a good record against Denmark. They have won two matches and had a draw. Denmark has also lost their opening game in the competition.
Lorysan: In the second round of the group, the Denmark national team will play with the Belgium national team. I think that in this match the Danes will be able to show good football and not lose this match. The Belgian team is now leading in the group and, in my opinion, a draw is possible here, since the Danes cannot lose points.
No Man: After the traumatizing event that happened during the Denmark and Finland game, Denmark would be without their best player Eriksen. I think Denmark will give a tough time to Belgium but I believe if Belgium comes to this game determined, they will be able to grab all three points.
TheTrollmanSha: Denmark lost the 1st match vs Finland and need points here but this will be a tough match for them: not only because Belgium is a good team (won 3-0 1st round) but also for what happened to Eriksen. I don’t see them winning, a draw is not impossible and so I pick the Asian Handicap 0 Full time on Belgium.
Mattybet: Denmark is coming off a difficult game after what happened with Eriksen, but they showed a good game in the first 30 minutes against Finland. However, Belgium is a favorite to win the cup and the resounding 3-0 in game one confirms it. Belgium will win without a doubt.
