On February 12, the Swiss national team will face the Danes in the second round of the group round of the Olympic Games. Will we see the intrigue in this game?
Switzerland
The Swiss national team performs well in defense at the Olympics, but, unfortunately, it does not bring any special dividends to the team, since the attack looks weak. The Swiss lost to the Russians (0:1) and the Czechs (1:2 bul.). A victory over the Danes in the main will bring the team the second position, provided that the Czechs will lose to the Russians.
Denmark
The Danes are very good at the Olympics. The team lost to the Russians in the last round (0:2), and before that, at the start, they managed to deal with the Czechs (2:1). Even a defeat outside the regular time of the match from the Swiss guarantees the team the second position in the group, provided that the Czechs lose to the Russian national team.
Figures and statistics:
- The teams have met three times in the last five years. Twice the Swiss won and once the victory went to the Danes;
- In the last two matches of these teams, a bet was played – at least one team will not score - yes;
- The Danish national team has won eight of the last nine matches.
Forecast
It is difficult for the Danes to claim something serious in this meeting. After all, the Swiss must show their class and win this confrontation due to a reliable defensive game. We expect that the formal hosts will bet on defense and will not force events on the ice and punish their opponents for mistakes in defense. The Swiss win in 1.58.
