Our Wales vs Denmark prediction is for an open game with goals at both ends in Cardiff tonight. Denmark are favourites and beat Wales 2-0 in Copenhagen just a week ago, but Craig Bellamy’s side arrive in better spirits after beating Norway on Thursday. Kick-off at Cardiff City Stadium is 9:45pm East Africa Time, with all three teams below Portugal locked on three points.
Wales vs Denmark: Key Match Facts
- Competition: UEFA Nations League, League A, Group A4 (Matchday 4)
- Date: Sunday 4 October 2026
- Kick-off: 9:45pm EAT
- Venue: Cardiff City Stadium, Cardiff

Group A4 Table
- Portugal: 9 points (goals 7-3)
- Denmark: 3 points (goals 6-7)
- Norway: 3 points (goals 5-6)
- Wales: 3 points (goals 2-4)
Portugal have a perfect record and look set to top the group, so the real fight is for second place and a quarter-final spot. With Denmark, Norway and Wales all on three points, tonight’s winner will take a big step forward, while the loser could find themselves at the bottom and in danger of relegation to League B.
Wales: Confidence Restored
Wales lost their first two matches without scoring, going down 1-0 away to Portugal and 2-0 in Copenhagen. Bellamy was clearly hurt by the display in Denmark, and he got the reaction he wanted on Thursday. Norway took an early lead in Cardiff through Bobb, but Daniel James equalised before half-time and Neco Williams curled in a free-kick just after the break to seal a 2-1 win. Norway played most of the second half with ten men after Heggem was sent off.
That was Wales’ first victory in League A, and the atmosphere in Cardiff should be lively again tonight. Bellamy is expected to make changes to keep his team fresh.
Wales team news
Bellamy is without several important players. Harry Wilson, Joe Rodon, Karl Darlow and Dylan Lawlor are all missing, and David Brooks has also withdrawn from the squad. Losing Wilson takes away a lot of creativity and set-piece quality, while Rodon’s absence weakens the centre of defence against a Denmark side that likes to attack.
Denmark: Goals but No Consistency
Denmark’s campaign has been a rollercoaster. They lost 3-2 in Oslo on the opening night, when Erling Haaland scored twice for Norway, then beat Wales 2-0 at home. On Thursday they were beaten 4-2 by Portugal in Copenhagen. Mikkel Damsgaard and Rasmus Højlund have both scored in two of Denmark’s three games, so the attack is working, but conceding seven goals in three matches is a worry for Riemer.
Denmark team news
Patrick Dorgu was injured in the win over Wales and has been sent home, which is a blow for Denmark’s left side. Andreas Christensen and Kasper Dolberg are also out of this international window. Without Christensen, Denmark’s defence lacks experience, which could give Wales hope.
Head-to-Head Record
Denmark have won the last four meetings between the two nations, including last week’s 2-0 victory in Copenhagen. Wales will need to break that run if they want to stay in the race for second place.
Wales vs Denmark Odds
The market favours Denmark. The away win is priced at roughly 1.90 to 2.00, the draw at around 3.60 to 3.75, and Wales at around 3.50 to 3.60. Those prices suggest bookmakers expect a competitive game rather than a one-sided one. Check JetBet for the latest odds, as team news can move the market late on.
Wales vs Denmark Prediction
Denmark have more quality, especially in attack, and their record against Wales is strong. However, their defence has been leaky, and Wales showed against Norway that they can score when the home crowd gets behind them. Missing Wilson and Rodon is a real problem for Bellamy, but the absences of Dorgu and Christensen also hurt Denmark.
Denmark’s three games in this group have produced 13 goals between them, and we expect both teams to find the net again tonight, with the visitors’ extra firepower possibly making the difference.
- Main pick: Both teams to score
- Alternative pick: Denmark draw no bet
- Predicted score: Wales 1-2 Denmark
Both teams to score avoids having to choose a winner in a game that could go either way, while draw no bet on Denmark returns your stake if Wales hold on for a draw. There are no sure things in football, so bet only what you can afford.
