Denmark's last five have been far more productive. Three wins, a draw and a single defeat, with eleven goals scored against five conceded. That's a much sturdier platform to build on, even allowing for the mix of friendlies and competitive fixtures in the sample.
Denmark arrive with the better recent output at both ends of the pitch.
Comparative Team Statistics: Wales vs Denmark

Denmark's recent record over Wales
The three meetings we have on file all went Denmark's way. A 4-0 win at Euro 2020, a 2-1 Nations League win in 2018, and a 2-0 win the same year. None of that tells us much about the sides as they stand now, but it's a pattern worth noting.
| League | Home | Away | Date | Score |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Euro Championship | Wales | Denmark | 26.06.2021 | 0-4 |
| UEFA Nations League | Wales | Denmark | 16.11.2018 | 1-2 |
| UEFA Nations League | Denmark | Wales | 09.09.2018 | 2-0 |
Names to watch
On the Danish side, Skov Olsen and Eriksen have both been busy from a creative standpoint, with three and two assists respectively across their recent international outings. That sort of service can matter if Denmark dominate possession here.
For Wales, Johnson has picked up four yellow cards in five appearances. It's not proof he'll play or that he'll be booked again, but it's a discipline note worth keeping in mind given how often it's cropped up.

How this one could unfold
Wales have been leaking goals at a fair rate lately, nine in six matches, and that's a concern against a Denmark side that's found the net eleven times in five. If that pattern holds, Denmark look more likely to create and convert chances than Wales do.
Equally, small samples like these can turn quickly, and Nations League squads often shift with rotation, so treating either run as a guarantee would be a stretch.

Put together, the evidence tilts toward Denmark being the sharper side right now, but that's not the same as a confident betting angle. The samples are thin, spread across friendlies and competitive games, and Wales have shown they can grind out draws even in a rough run.
With nothing firm enough to build a selection around, this one's best watched rather than backed.
