San Marino will invite Denmark to the San Marino Stadium in the group stage of the UEFA Euro qualifiers on Tuesday.
The hosts' poor run in the ongoing qualification campaign continued on Friday, suffering a 3-0 away loss against Northern Ireland. They are at the bottom of the Group H table, having suffered defeats in all seven games thus far.
The visitors took another step towards securing direct qualification into the main event next year with a 3-1 home win over Kazakhstan. Jonas Wind scored in the 36th minute while Robert Skov bagged a brace. Kazakhstan were able to pull one goal back through Yan Vorogovskiy in the 58th minute.
They are in second place in the Group H table with 16 points to their name, the same as first-placed Slovenia. They need two wins from their remaining three qualifying games to ensure direct qualification.

San Marino vs Denmark Prediction
La Serenissima, the team at the bottom of the FIFA Men's rankings, have endured a poor run in the ongoing European qualifying campaign, suffering seven defeats in a row without finding the back of the net.
They have conceded 24 goals in these games, with nine of them coming in three home games. Across all competitions, they have scored just one goal in their last 11 home games, and their poor run is expected to continue in this match.
De Rød-Hvide are unbeaten in their last five games in the qualifiers, recording four wins. Interestingly, they have just one win in their last five away games in the qualifiers, scoring and conceding five times in that period.
Kasper Hjulmand has a full-strength squad available for selection and will look to wrap up the current ongoing campaign with a win. Considering the contrast in form between the two teams, a comfortable win seems to be on the cards for the visitors and the odds of a clean sheet also look good.
