USA vs Denmark (W) Prediction 13 November 2026
🔊 Let's be honest - Denmark have already achieved their goal at their home World Championship by reaching the playoffs. They have no chance against the Olympic champions, so they can set themselves a clear objective - to avoid a heavy defeat.
Head-to-Head
📊 The teams have never played each other before.

A thrashing, a thrashing and another thrashing
The American women predictably breezed through the group stage in spectacular fashion, but conceding goals against Czechia and even Austria is a concern. Not enough, though, to make us doubt USA’s superiority. USA have scored 31 goals at the tournament (7.75 per game on average). Their reliable defence is matched by a powerful attack, allowing them to dictate the pace and control games with barely a lapse.
Match Results: USA

Minimum target achieved
Denmark, meanwhile, achieved their tournament objective by beating Japan 3-2 in a shootout and finishing in the top four of their group. Even so, they lost their other three games heavily. At the home World Championship, Denmark conceded an average of 6.5 goals per game and scored just 0.75. They lost 10-0 to both Canada and Sweden. We may well see that scoreline again. The only factor that could complicate matters is motivation: Denmark were already thinking about the playoffs during the group stage, and now they have a chance to go a little further.
