Denmark vs Faroe Islands

Denmark will be looking to maintain a 100% record in this World Cup qualifying campaign when they meet the Faroe Islands at Parken Stadium.

Denmark’s hard-earned 1-0 win over Austria last time out ensured their passage to Qatar 2022, seeing them become the second team to qualify for next year’s showpiece after Germany. Though they’ve won all eight 2022 World Cup qualifying matches so far, the Danes will be motivated here as they look to complete this qualifying cycle without conceding! Another clean sheet here looks like a near-certainty, with Denmark winning their last four meetings with the Faroe Islands ‘to nil,’ which has been the case in their three competitive home matches in the post-Euro 2020 period. With just two games left in the ongoing qualifying cycle, Denmark look to be on the verge of completing their World Cup qualifying campaign without a single defeat for the first time since the 2002 qualifiers.

On the other hand, the Faroe Islands have experienced another underwhelming World Cup qualifying campaign, losing six of their eight Group F fixtures so far (W1, D1). Worryingly, the visitors have developed a habit of falling behind without recovering, as witnessed by the fact that their last six World Cup qualifying defeats have all come ‘to nil.’ Another disappointing venture on foreign soil is well on the cards, considering the Faroe Islands have gone winless in their last seven international travels (D3, L4), netting under 1.5 goals on each occasion in that run. Furthermore, Hakan Ericson’s men have conceded 3+ goals in both road trips preceding this fixture, highlighting the potential for another clear-cut reverse.
