Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Denmark could line up for their Euro 2020 clash with Belgium on Thursday.

Denmark manager Kasper Hjulmand must carefully check on the mental wellbeing of his players before their second fixture of Euro 2020 with Belgium on Thursday evening.

The Danes were forced to witness teammate Christian Eriksen suffer a cardiac arrest at the weekend as medics rushed to revive him, and while the playmaker is now on the road to recovery, some of Hjulmand's crop may understandably not be in the right headspace.

Should Thomas Delaney and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg - who missed a penalty in the weekend's 1-0 defeat - be good to go in midfield again, Brentford's Mathias Jensen should fill the void left by Eriksen.

Kasper Schmeichel and Simon Kjaer - two heroes of the day - were on hand to comfort Eriksen's stricken partner in Copenhagen, but the latter could not continue after witnessing what he did and will need to be assessed before this fixture.

Hjulmand would ideally be keen to stick with the majority of the team who featured from the first whistle against Finland, which would see Atalanta BC's Joakim Maehle operating as a left-back while Daniel Wass features on the right.

Jonas Wind struggled to make an impact as the focal point of attack, however, so Andreas Cornelius or Kasper Dolberg could push for a start against the world's number-one ranked nation.

Yussuf Poulsen and Martin Braithwaite tend to be deployed at the forefront of the attack, but both men could find themselves providing support from the flanks again, unless Hjulmand opts for more natural wingers in Andreas Skov Olsen and Mikkel Damsgaard.

Denmark possible starting lineup: Schmeichel; Wass, Kjaer, Christensen, Maehle; Delaney, Hojbjerg, Jensen; Poulsen, Dolberg, Braithwaite
