Denmark vs Serbia Team News
Denmark have no injury or suspension issues for their Group C meeting with Serbia and may go with the same XI that started the 1-1 draw with England. That would see Joakim Maehle keep his place at right wing-back at Alexander Bah's expense.
Filip Kostic missed the 1-1 draw with Slovenia owing to an injury sustained in the 1-0 loss to England and may miss out against here. Mijat Gacinovic replaced Filip Mladenovic at left wing-back for the second half of the above stalemate and may get the nod here.

Denmark vs Serbia Key Battle
Christien Eriksen has been superb at Euro 2024. Despite struggling for game time for Manchester United last season, Eriksen has been a creative force for Denmark having made more key passes (11) than any other player in Germany so far. While he's yet to register an assist, it won't be long before that changes.
As such, there is added pressure on Sasa Lukic to keep the creative 32-year-old at bay. Not afraid to get stuck in, Lukic has made six tackles, two interceptions and committed three fouls across his two outings.
