Euro 2020: Czech Republic v Denmark line-ups announced
The Czech Republic v Denmark line-ups are out, as the two sides go head-to-head in the third quarter-final of Euro 2020
The Czech Republic v Denmark line-ups for this evening's Euro 2020 quarter-final clash in Baku have been announced.
Czech Republic coach Jaroslav Silhavy has made just one change from his team's memorable Last 16 win over the Netherlands, with Jan Boril returning from suspension to replace Pavel Kaderabek at left-back. Leading the line will be Patrik Schick, who needs one goal to draw level with Cristian Ronaldo in the race for the Golden Boot.
Denmark, meanwhile, are unchanged from their 4-0 thrashing of Wales in the previous round, with boss Kasper Hjulmand able to name captain Simon Kjaer in his 11 after he was forced off late in that game. With nine goals - eight of which have come in their last two outings - the Danes are the joint third top scorers at the tournament.

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
