This game is going to be a Group E battle as the places for the FIBA World Cup 2023 are open for taking. In this game, Denmark will encounter Iceland. More about DEN vs ISL Dream 11 will be given below.
Denmark has struggled to figure out their combinations and has lacked consistency on both ends of the floor. The minutes of different players keep shuffling and thus there is a lack of cohesion on defense at times. Iceland beat Denmark the last time around by a comfortable margin and may have more depth than the Danish men. However, they only lost by 2 points against Montenegro showing a lot of grit. Denmark may be thrououghly outmanned at the Forward and Center position and this is where Iceland can clinch an advantage.
Match Timing: 17 August, @ 11:30 PM Venue: Bemax Arena
The game will occur in the Bemax Arena in Podgorica which is located in Montenegro.
