Greece and Denmark square off in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers on Monday

The action continues in Group C of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers as Greece play host to Denmark at the Karaiskakis Stadium on Monday. This will be the first meeting between the two teams since February 2009, when they played out a 1-1 draw in a friendly clash in Athens.

Greece picked up a near-perfect start in the World Cup qualifiers on Friday as they edged out Belarus 5-1 when the two nations squared off at the Karaiskakis Stadium.

With that result, Ivan Jovanovic’s men have won four games on the spin across all competitions, a run which saw them clinch promotion to League A of the UEFA Nations League back in March.

Greece, who are currently 39th in the latest FIFA World Rankings, will look to open up an early lead at the top of Group C as they eye a first World Cup appearance since 2014.

Despite having over 70% of the ball possession, Denmark failed to make their dominance count in Friday’s group opener against Scotland as they were held to a goalless draw at Parken Park.

Before that, Brian Riemer’s men fell to a 5-3 aggregate defeat against Portugal in the Nations League quarter-finals in March before claiming successive friendly victories over Northern Ireland and Lithuania in March.

Denmark, unbeaten in five of their last six matches across all competitions (3W, 2D), will take the positives from their result against Scotland as they look to get their qualifying campaign up and running on Monday.

Greece vs Denmark Prediction

Denmark were guilty of a lack of cutting-edge at the attacking end of the pitch against Scotland last time out and will be looking to bounce back on Monday.

Riemer’s side boast the better players, but Greece head into Monday’s clash in fine form and we predict the two nations will cancel out each other’s efforts.

Prediction: Greece 1-1 Denmark
