One of the most uneven games in the Ice Hockey World Championship quarterfinals corresponds to the clash between Canada and Denmark, teams that will face next Thursday noon in Herning, where the Jyske Bank Boxen is expected to be totally sold-out as Denmark will be playing at home. In this matter, the fans support could increase the pressure on the Canadian squad, which has gained its favoritism with such an amazing performance in the group stage.
In this matter, it’s worth noting that Canada was able to win the top spot of Group A after their most recent victory over Sweden (2-5), in a game that totally renewed their expectations of conquering the 2025 World Championship. With this in mind, Nathan MacKinnon will have a huge obligation of keeping as the offensive leader of the Canadian squad such as he did during their game against Sweden, where he collaborated with 1 goal and 2 assists.
Meanwhile, Denmark qualified to the quarterfinals in the fourth spot of Group B after having such a wonderful performance that allowed them to win the last four games of the group stage, including an unexpected shootout victory over Germany (1-2). For that result, the last-minute incorporation of Nikolaj Ehlers was key to tie the game in the third period, so the Danish squad is expected to be more competitive than expected.

Our Denmark vs Canada Prediction
In summary, Canada’s inherit favoritism totally makes sense when looking at their historical confrontations, however it must be noted that Denmark will be playing at home with the advantage of having one of their best players in the initial line-up such as Ehlers, so the Danish squad is expected to again bring up a very competitive defensive level. Therefore, the pick for Canada – Denmark is: Under 6.5 Goals!
