Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Denmark could line up for their Euro 2020 semi-final with England on Wednesday.

Denmark manager Kasper Hjulmand has no need to change a winning formula for his side's Euro 2020 semi-final encounter with England at Wembley on Wednesday.

The Scandinavian side booked their place in the final four courtesy of a 2-1 success over the Czech Republic, and it would not be surprising to see Hjulmand keep faith in the same XI in the English capital.

Christian Eriksen continues to be closely observed after his cardiac arrest on matchday one, but Hjulmand is otherwise expected to have everyone fit and available for Wednesday's encounter after Yussuf Poulsen was fit enough to come off the bench against the Czechs.

The RB Leipzig man is pushing for a start here, but Kasper Dolberg followed up his brace against Wales with his side's second in the quarter-final and is in no position to relinquish his place up top.

An unchanged front three would see Dolberg being supported by the wide threat of Mikkel Damsgaard and Martin Braithwaite, while Thomas Delaney and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg are an immovable midfield pairing behind them.

Joakim Maehle's outside-of-the-boot assist for Dolberg's strike against the Czechs understandably made headlines, and on the other side, Jens Stryger Larsen will hope to keep Daniel Wass out of the team after crossing for Delaney to open the scoring in the last eight.

Simon Kjaer has battled back from his own fitness concerns to make himself available, and he is set to line up with Premier League trio Kasper Schmeichel, Andreas Christensen and Jannik Vestergaard in the rearguard at Wembley.

Denmark possible starting lineup: Schmeichel; Vestergaard, Christensen, Kjaer; Stryger Larsen, Delaney, Hojbjerg, Maehle; Damsgaard, Dolberg, Braithwaite
