France Carry Momentum into the Main Round
France have made a strong statement during the group phase, winning all three matches, advancing to the Main Round with points, and significantly improving their odds in the medal race.
Les Bleus opened the tournament with a dominant 42–28 victory over the Czech Republic, before producing another one-sided display against Ukraine, winning 46–26. Dylan Nahi was the top scorer in both matches, totaling 12 goals across those two wins.
Their biggest test came in the third round against co-hosts Norway, where France excelled in transition and secured a third straight victory, edging out a high-quality opponent 38–34.
Denmark Under Pressure After Group-Stage Slip
Denmark entered the European Championship 2026 as overwhelming gold-medal favorites, but that status took a hit after they failed to carry any points into the Main Round, leaving them with little margin for error going forward.
The Danes opened the tournament in dominant fashion, dismantling North Macedonia 36–24 with Simon Pytlick scoring nine goals, before crushing Romania 39–24 in the second round, where Mathias Gidsel also finished with nine goals.
However, Denmark stumbled badly in the final group match against Portugal. Despite being massive favorites and playing in front of their home crowd in Herning, they struggled offensively and suffered a deserved 31–29 defeat.
Verdict
Denmark have no room for further mistakes after the group-stage loss to Portugal. With superior depth, experience, and tournament pedigree, they are well positioned to respond against France. I am backing the Danes to claim victory and cover a –2.5 handicap in Herning.
