Dolberg retains his place for free-scoring Denmark against the Czech Republic

Kasper Hjulmand named an unchanged Denmark side from the 4-0 thrashing of Wales in Amsterdam despite the return of RB Leipzig forward Yussuf Poulsen from injury.

Czech boss Jaroslav Silhavy makes just one change from his side's impressive 2-0 win over the Netherlands in the last 16 with Jan Boril coming in at left-back for Pavel Kaderabek. Skipper Vladimir Darida missed that match through injury and returns only on the bench with West Ham midfielder Tomas Soucek retaining the captain's armband.

The winner will face either England or Ukraine in the semi-finals at Wembley on Wednesday.

Starting line-ups:

Czech Republic (4-2-3-1): Tomas Vaclik; Vladimir Coufal, Ondrej Celustka, Tomas Kalas, Jan Boril; Tomas Soucek (capt), Tomas Holes; Lukas Masopust, Antonin Barak, Petr Sevcik; Patrik Schick. Coach: Jaroslav Silhavy (CZE)

Denmark (3-4-3): Kasper Schmeichel; Andreas Christensen, Simon Kjaer (capt), Jannik Vestergaard; Jens Stryger Larsen, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Thomas Delaney, Joakim Maehle; Martin Braithwaite, Kasper Dolberg, Mikkel Damsgaard. Coach: Kasper Hjulmand (DEN)

Referee: Bjorn Kuipers (NED)
