England's Under-21 side lost in Germany last time out but they can bounce back from that defeat as Aidy Boothroyd's side continue their preparations for this summer's European Championship with a trip to Denmark.

The Danes, like England, have qualified for the extended 12-team finals in Poland but it's a slight surprise to see the young Three Lions as underdogs given the hosts are far from full strength.

Denmark, beaten 3-1 by Spain on Thursday, qualified for the Euros with nine wins and a draw but they were in a weak group and Bulgaria were a long way back in second. Eight-goal Marcus Ingvartsen has moved up to the senior squad and Ajax's classy Kasper Dolberg is injured.

England possess the likes of Jordan Pickford, Jack Stephens, Alfie Mawson, Harry Winks and Demarai Gray who have decent Premier League experience and it's a matter of time before Chelsea's on-loan Bristol City hotshot Tammy Abraham joins them.
