After failing to qualify for the World Cup, Denmark could not have picked a much tougher start than away to quarter-finalists Norway.
However, they only lost by one goal, which would have pleased Brian Riemer somewhat especially after being two goals down early on.
Denmark are also in strong home form, so will fancy their chances against Wales.
They have reported no fresh injury concerns, so will be aiming to attack this fixture with the more-fancied Portugal also in their group.
As for Wales, Ben Cabango has to be assessed after coming off injured against Portugal.
Craig Bellamy was “extremely proud” of his team's performance despite losing, and they will fancy their chances more against Denmark, albeit being away from home again.
It does mean Wales are winless in five games though, including a penalty shootout defeat to Bosnia & Herzegovina that meant failure to qualify for the World Cup.
They are underdogs here, and will have to turn their form around to get a surprise result.

Whispers predicts: Denmark 2-1 Wales
Denmark are 1/2 (1.50) favourites, but while we agree with the bookies, we want to explore other bets.
BTTS – Yes at 1/1 (2.00) stands out, with both defences vulnerable after defeats.
Over 9.5 corners at 11/10 (2.10) is our next pick, which has come through in six of Wales' last eight competitive away outings.
Rasmus Hojlund to score anytime at 7/5 (2.40) is our final bet, having added to his two goals for Napoli this season with one for Denmark against Norway.
Overall, we are predicting a 2-1 Denmark victory, which is available at 15/2 (8.50).
> BTTS – Yes at 2.00 | Likelihood: Medium
> Over 9.5 corners at 2.10 | Likelihood: Medium
> Hojlund to score anytime at 2.40 | Likelihood: Medium
