A suspenseful first round of the European Group C match between Slovenia and Denmark. Despite Slovenia's solid form, the odds don't seem to be in Slovenia's favor against the experienced Denmark. The visitors, Denmark, may be able to win this time with their experience.
The two teams were in the same group outside of the European Nations and were reunited in the Europa League. Slovenia has an impressive record of 7 wins and 1 loss in 10 matches and is in second place. Their recent performance has been even better, with only one loss in 12 matches. The Slovenian team, in conjunction with Obiljani, has helped to fuel the rise of the Cervenschis and should not be underestimated. However, experience is crucial in the tournament. Slovenia's last World Cup final week was in South Africa in 2010, while the UEFA Nations Cup was in 2000, 24 years ago. The Srps were arguably inexperienced back then.
In contrast, Denmark's experience leaves Slovenia in the dust. Aside from a mythical 1992 title as a substitute, Denmark has reached the final week of nine of the last 11 European Nations Cups. In their most recent match against Finland, Denmark nearly exited the tournament due to a heart attack. Gisdian Aleksson has recovered and led his team to all three points in three games this season. Denmark scored an unexpected goal in the preventive match against Nakaja Chaji, which certainly increased their morale. In the last six meetings with Slovenia, Denmark won five and drew one, including one win and one draw in the UEFA Nations Cup, which puts them ahead of the table and they are expected to win again in today's match.
