Denmark v Australia - Preview and possible lineups

Denmark: Andreas Christensen and William Kvist were both taken off with injuries during the 1-0 win over Peru. The former has recovered and is available for selection but Kvist will play no further part in the competition, with Lasse Schone expected to replace him.

Australia: The coach has a tough choice between sticking with Andrew Nabbut to lead the attack or choosing Tomi Juric, who has recovered from his fitness issues to be in contention.

Many are also calling for youngster Daniel Arzani and veteran Tim Cahill to feature more during their second fixture, which is a must-win following the 2-1 defeat to France.

Denmark coach Age Hareide on his opposition:

“They look solid as a team and the Australians always work hard. They fight with their heart and they are brave.

“I think Australia has been looking better day by day after van Marwijk came in. He is a good coach and experienced coach."

Australia midfielder Aaron Mooy on potential set-up:

"We have a game plan, which we've played since Bert and the coaching staff took over and not a lot is changing, we just try and do our jobs better.

"The game plan worked well against France, maybe we need to attack a bit more but that depends how the game's going. We need to win so hopefully we'll get a few chances and put them away."
