Czech Republic are gearing up for a clash against Denmark at Baku Olimpiya Stadionu on Saturday in what is a match in the 1/4 finals of the European Championship.
Czech Republic enter the Euro 2020 as number 40 in the FIFA world ranking, thus signifying the gap between these teams as Denmark come here with a ranking of number 10.
Imagine Czech Republic reaching another final at the European Championships, 25 years after last doing it. Playing a final at Wembley just like in 1996. Not even the most optimistic supporter would have placed a bet on that before the start of the Euro 2020, but nevertheless the chance exits.
Denmark were close to down and out but somehow managed to claw their way to a second place finish in their group. Momentum is strong now coming back from the brink is such a fashion. They proved how well drilled they now are by putting four past Wales in the Round of 16. It was the first time a team scored four goals in two successive matches at the European Championships.
