Denmark must beat Russia in its final group game in Copenhagen to stand a chance of qualifying for the knockout stages at Euro 2020 and that could make for an intense and exciting clash on Monday.

Russia, meanwhile, could advance by earning one point from a tie, and an interesting tactical battle could unfold at the Parken Stadium.

With Group B’s final standings set to be decided, here is a look at our same game parlay for Russia vs. Denmark.

Denmark to beat Russia (-145)

Denmark is yet to pick up a point at Euro 2020 but the Danes completed their opener against Finland in extremely difficult circumstances after Christian Eriksen was taken to hospital and the Danes were the better side for much of their game with red-hot Belgium last time out.

They know they have to beat Russia if they are to stand a chance of making the knockout stages, but they outshot Belgium 21-6 last time out, having come out firing in the first half, and in their three World Cup qualifiers earlier this year they managed 14 goals in three games.

Russia beat Finland 1-0 last time out but the Russians’ defense looked creaky and they were outclassed by Belgium in their first match. Take Denmark to win the game as the first leg of our same game parlay.

Under 3.5 goals (-360)

All four of the matches which have taken place in Group B this month have produced under 3.5 goals and Monday’s affair between these teams could be another relatively low-scoring encounter.

Denmark have quality in their offense with Martin Braithwaite and Yussuf Poulsen but will still miss the creative talent of Eriksen and Russia knows a tie will be enough to book second place provided Belgium beats Finland, so the Russians won’t feel the need to take any risks in the early stages at least.

Stanislav Cherchesov’s men could be focused on their defense and they have scored only three times in their last four games anyway. Expect a tight game and go for under 3.5 goals.

Martin Braithwaite to score at anytime (+250)

The final selection for this same game parlay is a goalscorer bet and even though Denmark’s Martin Braithwaite is yet to get on the scoresheet at Euro 2020, he looks a decent choice for this game.

He scored in their tournament warm-up match with Bosnia and also fired home against Israel in a World Cup qualifier in March. Although he has been something of an enigma at Barcelona, he is one of Denmark’s best offensive options.

No Danish player had more shots than Braithwaite’s seven attempts against Belgium and if he is as lively again in Copenhagen, he can be fancied to score.
