Denmark make decision over Leeds United's Rasmus Kristensen for decisive Australia clash

Leeds United right-back Rasmus Kristensen has been named in Denmark's starting line-up to face Australia in their final Group D game.

Denmark will progress to the knockout stages if they win, unless Tunisia beat reigning champions France in the other game. If that is the case, then goal difference would decide between Denmark and Tunisia.

Kristensen started Denmark's first two games at right-wing back and will resume that role against the Socceroos.

The Red and Whites have failed to replicate their Euro 2020 heroics (which saw them reach the semi-finals) and have claimed just one point from a possible six.

After serving up a goalless draw against Tunisia in their opening game, Denmark lost 2-1 against France courtesy of a double from Kylian Mbappe.

Denmark (3-4-2-1): K Schmeichel; J Andersen, A Christensen, J Maehle; R Kristensen, P Hojbjerg, C Eriksen (c), M Jensen; A Olsen, J Lindstrom; M Braithwaite.
