Christian Eriksen can be the main man for Denmark

"Both teams have good recent form of finding the net, while Eriksen had an assist last time against Austria and has two goals in five for Denmark."

Back both teams to score in Denmark v Austria & Eriksen goal or assist at around 3.39/4

Monday's column is back Christian Eriksen to have a say in the goals during Denmark's game against Austria.

Denmark v Austria
Monday June 13
19:45 kick-off

We're nearly there - just two more rounds of what seems like a Nations League marathon to go, with Denmark facing Austria in Group 1 of the top division.

The players have likely had enough now of this post-season bonanza of international footbal, but it's been an entertaining spell and fills the gap left by the World Cup switching to winter.

Denmark top the standings in this intriguing group, which sees Austria second and surprisingly sees Croatia third and World Cup holders France in bottom spot.

The Danes won in France, then won their fourth in a row against Austria last week, before suffering a home loss to Croatia at the weekend, while Austria beat Croatia and drew with France.

Denmark have scored in 15 of their last 17 internationals, while Austria have scored in seven of their last eight away games and under Ralf Rangnick look even more dangerous.

Both teams to score here looks a fair shout at at 1.84/5.

And if we're looking for creativity for the hosts you have to look at Christian Eriksen, who ended the season superbly with Spurs.

Eriksen had an assist in the last game against Austria to make it three in six for club and country - but he's also scored twice in his last five Denmark outings.

So we'll take him in the score or assist market at 2.111/10 as he'll have his shooting boots on trying to make amends for their disappointing defeat last time out.

He's the subject of an OddsBoost on the Sportsbook where you can back him at an enhanced 3.7511/4 to assist a goal - but we're taking the cover shot by adding in the chance of a goal too.

Either way, he should have an impact here.
