After posting a third straight Group H win at the weekend, Denmark are within touching distance of reaching Euro 2024 as they take on San Marino on Tuesday.
If they win as expected and other results go their way, the Danes could seal automatic qualification for next year's finals; meanwhile, their hosts have yet to either score or pick up a point.
A crucial 3-1 win in Copenhagen keeps Kasper Hjulmand's men level on points with Group H leaders Slovenia, and the top two have now opened up a four-point gap to both the Kazakhs and Finland with three games left to play.
As a result, Denmark will qualify this week if they complete the formality of beating San Marino for a second time in the process, should Slovenia also avoid defeat against Northern Ireland and Kazakhstan draw with the Finns.
The Euro 92 winners do not have a potential playoff place to fall back on as things stand, after losing out to group winners Croatia in their most recent UEFA Nations League campaign, but games against Slovenia and Northern Ireland next month offer further chances to get over the line.
