We look for patterns in goal trends, home and away splits, player performance, and betting market movement to identify where the value lies. We don’t just tip favourites – we aim to find selections that offer a genuine edge. Whether it’s a goalscorer angle, a BTTS trend, or a high-priced underdog, each tip is backed by research and reasoning to help you bet smarter.
Why We’re Backing Denmark to win to nil @ 6/4 with bet365
Denmark are a useful side, who performed well in last term’s Nations League and they should continue to build in the World Cup qualifiers.
The Danes competed well to finish runners-up to Spain in a section which also contained Switzerland and Serbia and the Red and Whites also got the better of Portugal 1-0 in the first leg of the Nations League quarter finals.
Brian Riemer’s side have conceded only three goals in their last six home internationals and they take on a Scotland side, who have won only four of their last 14 matches.
Denmark have conceded only one shot on target in their last two matches and the Danes can win to nil in Copenhagen.

Why We’re Backing Mika Biereth to score first @ 9/2 with bet365
Denmark have options in attack, with Kasper Dolberg, Andreas Skov Olsen, Anders Dreyer and Rasmus Hojlund pushing for starts, but Mika Biereth looks the bet to open the scoring.
The 22-year-old netted the first in the Red and Whites’ 5-0 friendly victory over Lithuania in June, while the Monaco man scored 13 goals in 16 Ligue 1 appearances last term.
Team Form/Stats
- Scotland have won only four of their last 14 matches
- Scotland have scored only six goals in their last seven competitive games
- One of both teams have failed to score in five of Scotland’s last seven games
- Denmark have conceded just three goals in their last six home games
- Denmark have allowed only one shot on target in their last two games
- The Danes have scored nine goals in their last three matches
Player to Watch
Matt O’Riley made a surprise move from Brighton to Marseille in the transfer window and the former Celtic star has a big part to play for his national side in their bid to qualify for the World Cup.
With Christian Eriksen out of the squad, O’Riley will be responsible for chance creation as well as offering a major goal threat from midfield.
