Group C will be watched by many at Euro 2024 as it contains tournament favourites England, but before they begin their campaign against Serbia, it will be Slovenia and Denmark who get proceedings underway in the group. These two sides have become quite familiar with one another, having shared the stage in Group H of Euro 2024 qualifying, as the Danes’ 2-1 victory last November helped them claim top spot after the pair finished on 22 points each (both W7, D1, L2).

That loss extended Slovenia’s winless record against Denmark to six games (D1, L5), but they won’t be deterred from trying to end that run, since that defeat was just one of two that Matjaž Kek’s men have suffered in their last 21 matches against any opponent (W13, D6). Getting a result here will likely be pivotal to the team’s outside chances of reaching the last 16, but history isn’t on their side as they’ve won only one of their nine prior group-stage encounters in all major tournaments (D3, L5), failing to progress on all three occasions.

The group stage is also where Denmark saw their highly disappointing 2022 World Cup campaign come to its conclusion. Instead, they’ll be looking to recreate their Euros heroics from just a year earlier, when they rallied following Christian Eriksen’s cardiac arrest to make it all the way to the semi-finals before being knocked out by fellow Group C opponents England.

Sharing a group with the Three Lions on this occasion may be a good omen though, as they did so when sensationally lifting the European Championship in 1992 despite famously not initially qualifying! Manager Kasper Hjulmand will be looking to justify his side’s tag as many people’s dark horses for the 2024 edition, given their red-hot form of losing only once in their 12 matches (W9, D2) prior to departing for Germany.

Key battle: Jan Oblak was key for Slovenia in qualifying, keeping clean sheets in half of his eight appearances while producing an excellent save percentage of 76.9%. Denmark’s Rasmus Højlund scored against Slovenia during the campaign – but not when Oblak was playing – to contribute to a fine total of seven goals from his eight qualifying matches.

Hot stat: Denmark have scored first in 11 of their last 14 games (W10, D2, L2). #SLOVENIA #DENMARK #Euro2024 #uefaeuro2024 #livefootballmatchtoday #livefootball #livescores #livefootballmatchtoday #footballmatch #footballlive #footballtoday
