⚽ Czech Republic vs. Denmark Prediction & Odds: Betting Preview for March 31
Consistent World Cup participants Denmark stand between the Czech Republic and its first World Cup berth in 20 years, with Tuesday's playoff final deciding which team will punch their ticket to the summer's showcase event.
While I believe the betting favorite Denmark (+100) will advance, I'm backing the Czechia to drag the visitors into extra time, if not penalties, in my Czech Republic vs. Denmark prediction. I'm hoping Patrik Schick will score in consecutive games in what should be an adrenaline-fueled outing at epet Arena in Prague, Czech Republic.

3-way ML draw (+240)
Denmark still has a few key absences that will influence Tuesday's match in Prague, with Kasper Schmeichel, Andreas Christensen, Rasmus Kristensen, Patrick Dorgu and Jannik Vestergaard missing out through injury. Philip Billing, Yussuf Poulsen and Andreas Skov Olsen will also miss the pivotal win-or-go-home clash.
The Czech Republic is playing better of late, having won three straight. And I expect the feverish Prague crowd to represent the great equalizer as they haven't lost at home in 17 matches.
Recently, they held Croatia to a 0-0 stalemate at home, reinforcing how difficult they are to defeat in the nation's capital.
Score prediction: Czech Republic 1, Denmark 1 (Denmark advance on penalties) (+800 via FanDuel, 0.1u -> 0.8u)

Patrik Schick, F, Czech Republic (+240)
Schick scored his fifth goal in seven qualification games against Ireland in Thursday's semifinal victory. That's a goal in three of four home matches during World Cup qualifications. He takes the team's penalties, adding another avenue from which to score.
His +240 odds, the best price of the best sports betting sites, are another reason I'm making the bet. Schick is also lethal in the air, which bodes well in a match where time and space during open play will be at a premium.
He netted four goals in nine Champions League matches before Bayer Leverkusen was ousted by Champions League odds favorite Arsenal.

💡 How I'm betting Czech Republic vs. Denmark
Of the three World Cup playoff finals I'm covering, this is the one I'm least confident about. Czechia has been excellent at home, which is why I'm backing it to at least get to extra time.
While it has a superior roster, Denmark has some injuries. And its roster, even when healthy, isn't significantly better than Czechia's.
I'm only devoting 0.5 units ($5) to the outcome and 0.2 units to the Schick scoring, reflecting my lower confidence and the corresponding probabilities (29.41%).
