England will host Denmark this time at the Wembley stadium. Denmark managed to get one point when these two sides met for the first time in the Nations League. Gareth Southgate has modified his team selection since then which has worked in favour of the Three Lions. If Southgate could select the perfect playing XI out of the tremendously talented squad, England would be an unstoppable force.
