Denmark vs Kazakhstan Prediction, Betting Tips and Preview
Denmark welcome Kazakhstan in World Cup qualifying Group E this Friday. Read the match predictions to find out why a comfortable home win is the betting tip in Copenhagen. The Danes have work to do after losing 0-1 at home to Montenegro last time out while Kazakhstan managed to hold out of a 0-0 draw at home to Romania.
Denmark vs Kazakhstan Preview
Denmark are without goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel after he suffered a broken hand when playing against Copenhagen in the Champions League. Everything will go through Tottenham Hotspur star Cristian Erikesen who will be looking to supply Fischer and Poulsen in the attack.
Kazakhstan will need their wide men to track back if sticking to a 3 man defence. Baizhanov and Khizhnichenko are two industrious forwards that will run their socks off and the latter has 8 goals for his country. Samat Smakov will captain the side.

Denmark 5-3-2 formation: Ronnow; Ankersen, Vestergaard, Kjaer, Jorgensen, Durmisi; Hojbjerg, Eriksen, Delaney; Fischer, Poulsen
Kazakhstan 3-5-2 formation: Pokatilov; Akhmetov, Malyi, Logvinenko; Beisebekov, Kuat, Smakov, Muzhikov, Shomko; Baizhanov, Khizhnichenko

Denmark vs Kazakhstan Prediction
Denmark got the campaign underway with a 1-0 win over Armenia but couldn’t handle Robert Lewandowski in a 3-2 loss away to Poland. They’ll face nothing of that calibre here but must get back to winning ways to stay in touch with the group leaders after losing to Montenegro.
Kazakhstan held Poland to a 2-2 draw in their opening match but they were outclassed in a 5-0 defeat away Montenegro next time out. A mixture of luck and desperate defending helped them get another point against Romania but their traveling form is a concern going into this one.
With Poland and Montenegro playing away, Denmark will need to seize this opportunity to try and close the gap, should either of them slip up. Nothing but a win will do for the hosts and I’m expecting them to deliver. The prediction is a comfortable win, without running away with the game.
