The International Friendly match between Denmark and Lithuania, scheduled for June 10, 2025, at Nature Energy Park in Odense, is a preparation game ahead of Denmark’s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers. Below is an analysis of the teams, their head-to-head history, and a prediction for the match, incorporating relevant context from provided sources.
Team Reviews
Denmark (FIFA Rank: 21)
Denmark, known as the Danish Dynamites, are coached by Brian Reimer and are coming off a 2-1 comeback victory against Northern Ireland on June 7, 2025, with goals from Gustav Isaksen and Christian Eriksen. Despite a mixed UEFA Nations League campaign (2 wins, 2 draws, 2 losses, eliminated in the quarter-finals by Portugal), Denmark are focused on building momentum for their World Cup qualifiers starting in September.
Strengths:
Home Record: Denmark have lost only once at home since 2022 (to Spain), winning four of their last five home matches, including a 2-0 win over Serbia.
Key Players: Christian Eriksen (free agent, formerly Manchester United) remains pivotal, scoring the winner against Northern Ireland. Rasmus Højlund (Manchester United) leads the attack, supported by Mikkel Damsgaard and Gustav Isaksen.
Attacking Depth: Denmark average 1.5 goals per game in their last six matches, with a 67% over 2.5 goals rate in home games.
Weaknesses:
Inconsistent Form: Denmark have won only two of their last seven games, with draws and losses against strong teams like Portugal and Spain.
Experimental Lineups: Reimer’s use of debutants against Northern Ireland led to a shaky start, suggesting potential vulnerabilities if he rotates again.
Lithuania (FIFA Rank: 143)
Lithuania, known as Rinktine, are coached by Edgaras Jankauskas and are winless in their 2026 World Cup qualifiers (0 wins, 2 draws, 1 loss), with their latest result a 0-0 draw against Malta. Relegated to Nations League D after losing all six group games, Lithuania are in a rebuilding phase but have shown slight improvement with consecutive draws.
Strengths:
Resilience: Back-to-back draws against Finland and Malta mark progress after eight straight losses, with goalkeeper Lukas Gertmonas keeping a clean sheet against Malta.
Key Players: Gytis Paulauskas leads the attack, supported by Justas Lasickas, Artur Dolznikov, and Vykintas Slivka in a dynamic midfield.
Weaknesses:
Poor Away Form: Lithuania have lost four of their last five away games and haven’t won an away match since June 2024, struggling against teams in FIFA’s top 100.
Defensive Record: Conceding 1.8 goals per game in their last five matches, Lithuania’s defense is vulnerable against stronger attacks.
Head-to-Head History
Denmark and Lithuania have met twice in competitive matches, both during the 1992/93 World Cup qualifiers:
Total Matches: 2
Denmark Wins: 1 (Total Goals: 4, PPG: 2.0)
Lithuania Wins: 0
Draws: 1
Recent Encounter: Denmark won 4-0 at home in 1993, following a 0-0 draw in Lithuania.
Goal Trends: Both matches saw under 2.5 goals, with no BTTS. Average goals per match: 2.0.
Match Prediction
Denmark are heavy favorites due to their superior ranking, home dominance, and historical edge over Lithuania. Lithuania’s recent draws show resilience, but their poor away record and defensive issues make an upset unlikely.
Key Factors:
Denmark’s Home Strength: Their near-perfect home record (4 wins in 5) and low concession rate (0.6 goals per game at home) favor a comfortable win.
Lithuania’s Struggles: Winless in 2025 and with no away victories against top-100 FIFA teams in years, Lithuania face a tough challenge.
Player Impact: Eriksen and Højlund are likely to exploit Lithuania’s defense, while Lithuania’s attack may struggle to score.
Statistical Insights:
Denmark: 29% win probability in their last seven games, 67% of home games over 2.5 goals.
Lithuania: 0% win probability in World Cup qualifiers, 25% BTTS in their last four matches.
Head-to-Head: Denmark’s 4-0 win in 1993 suggests potential for a high-scoring home victory.
Prediction: Denmark’s quality and home advantage should lead to a dominant win. Lithuania may keep it tight early, but their defensive frailties will likely be exposed. A clean sheet for Denmark is probable given Lithuania’s lack of away goals.
Final Score Prediction: Denmark 3-0 Lithuania
