October 19: Denmark vs Switzerland, Gentofte, Kopenhagen, kickoff 4pm CET
Watch Live on IFAF.TVSwitzerland had no answer to the constant rain or relentless Italians in a 45-point loss last weekend and now travel to face the sixth seed Danes who have their sights set on a win to set up a winner-takes-all clash with Italy.
“Our goal is clear: we aim to be among the top four teams in Europe, which means we need to win the group,” says Denmark head coach Jacob Zinck Thellufsen.
“Our knowledge of Switzerland is primarily based on last year’s matches and last week against Italy. Swiss teams have shown high quality. Therefore, we approach the game with humility, knowing it's a team with skilled players.
“One of our major advantages is that all our players are in top form, coming off the season that just ended. This gives us an edge over other teams that may not have had the same continuity. Therefore, we can focus on optimizing teamwork.”
