Great Britain vs Denmark Prediction: The Vikings have a higher level of skill

Prediction for the World Championship 2024 match between Great Britain and Denmark which will take place on May 17. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Great Britain national team is having its debut season after returning to the elite of world hockey, but there is a high probability that next year the Lions will play in the second strongest division again. However, there is still a chance to save themselves, as they still have games against their direct competitors ahead of them. In their 2024 World Cup debut, they played only against top opponents, so there is no sensation that they were left without points. The British lost to the Canadians 2:4, the Finns 0:8 and the Swiss 0:3. Zero points for three games leave them in last place in the Group A standings, but the key matches for them will be against the Danes, Norwegians and Austrians.

Denmark is a team that rarely qualifies for the play-offs at major international tournaments, but the 2022 Olympics made it clear that the Vikings can do wonders. Nevertheless, at the 2024 World Cup they were placed in a group with the Swiss, Czechs, Canadians and Finns, which in itself minimised the other teams' chances of reaching the quarter-finals. The team needed to take points in the remaining games and expect a sensation in the match against at least one top team, but in reality everything turned out differently. The Danes started with a 5:1 win over the Austrians, before losing to the Canadians 1:5, the Norwegians 0:2 and the Czechs 4:7. This is enough for sixth place in Group A.

The Great Britain national team starts a series of key matches at the 2024 World Cup, the results of which will determine whether the Lions will remain in the elite of world hockey or go to the second strongest division again. Their closest opponent will be the Danish national team, which clearly intended to fight for a playoff spot at the tournament, but after the defeat of the Norwegians, the level of ambition has been greatly reduced, and therefore now they have to fight only for survival. Of course, the Vikings have a higher level of skill and should win easily, and they have won all four previous head-to-head encounters by a combined score of 22:2.
