Germany suffered a blow with the loss of captain Giulia Gwinn, ruled out for the rest of the tournament with a ligament injury. Carlotte Wamser, who replaced her mid-match against Poland, is expected to start at right-back. Lea Schuller, in red-hot form with four goals in three games, will continue to lead the line, supported by Jule Brand, who impressed with a goal and assist last time out.
Denmark are likely to remain in a back three with Emma Faerge, Stine Ballisager, and Katrine Veje. Midfielder Josefine Hasbo is in contention for a starting role, and striker Signe Bruun could partner Pernille Harder, who is still chasing her first goal of the tournament despite her 78-goal international record.
Germany are riding a wave of momentum with six straight wins and a strong defensive record. While Denmark possess the quality to challenge—especially with Harder leading the attack—the Danes will need to be clinical
to stand a chance. We expect a competitive match, but Germany’s depth and form should prove decisive.
Prediction: Germany Women 2–1 Denmark Women
