Football Bet of the Day: 11/1 boost for two attackers to strike

The epet Arena in Prague is the location for the Uefa World Cup play-off final between the Czech Republic and Denmark. The hosts came from two goals down to defeat the Republic of Ireland on penalties last Thursday, while Denmark comfortably defeated North Macedonia 4-0 in their semi-final.

One of these two teams will book their place at the Fifa World Cup finals this summer, so it is all to play for. I have hand-picked my Football Bet of the Day from this clash and you can check it out below.

Czech Republic vs Denmark Odds

With six wins from their last 11 fixtures, the Czech Republic are a 3/1 shot to prevail inside 90 minutes.

They drew in regulation time with Ireland last time out, so the stalemate might attract punters at 23/10.

Denmark are a 19/20 bet to win the tie in normal time.

A lot is going to be demanded of the attackers for both sides here, so I'm looking at the goalscorer markets. I'm an admirer of the talents of Patrik Schick (Czech Republic) and Gustav Isaksen (Denmark) and both players come into this game in good form.

The two of them were on the scoresheet in their respective semi-final ties. Schick from the penalty spot to bring Czechia back into the tie against Ireland, while Isaksen was at the double for the Danes against North Macedonia in a second-half onslaught.

Isaksen's tally for goals in this qualifying campaign now stands at three. He has not been as prolific as Schick, who has five to his name, but I am expecting both players to have starring roles in Tuesday's decider in Prague.

That is to be expected given their positions. Schick is a striker while Isaksen plays more as a winger. But the latter still has an eye for goal and his brace on Thursday has given him plenty of momentum for this showdown with the Czech Republic.

The two sides got the job done in different ways in their respective semi-final ties, but both were impressive. These two players were instrumental and rose to the occasion when they needed to. Schick gave his side a lifeline after a poor start against Ireland and Isaksen helped Denmark show a ruthless nature after a goalless first half in the victory over North Macedonia.
