Christian Eriksen

Christian Eriksen has been called up to participate in Russia World Cup 2018 as part of Denmark’s national football team. This isn’t surprising at all since he’s one of the best players from the country that is in shape to play this year.

He’s also probably very keen to play at this tournament again as he has only done so eight years ago in 2010, where he was the youngest player to participate in World Cup of that year.

Today, Christian Eriksen has achieved way more than eight years ago. He is an attacking midfielder both in Denmark team and Tottenham Hotspur football club.

Christian Eriksen of Denmark: Facts and Stats

Christian Eriksen has played almost 80 matches as a member of Denmark national team and scored over 20 goals for his country.

While he is a really valued player in his Premier League club, Eriksen’s performance was arguably better on international matches, so it seems that world-class competition drives him forward rather than stresses him.

He’s been selected as the best Spurs player for two seasons and the best Danish footballer of the year for four years, three of which were consecutive, from 2013 to 2015.

In other words, he is at his peak right now, so Christian Eriksen odds World Cup are pretty good and if Denmark goes far into the competition, Eriksen will definitely be the player to thank for.

Christian Eriksen in Russia World Cup 2018

Denmark has a tough time in the World Cup 2018 qualifiers, ending in the second place of their group and just barely advancing after the victory against Ireland.

Eriksen did a lot during that time, though. In the group matches, he played ten times and scored eight goals, becoming the second most capped player in the group after the ultimate top scorer Lewandowski.

Then, in the match against Ireland, Denmark won 5-1, with Eriksen scoring his first ever international hat-trick and more than doubling his initial international goal count when considering the both qualifier rounds.

Despite being a midfielder, this made Christian Eriksen World Cup odds very high and today he’s usually spoken of as the most promising player in the team and the best attacker.

Christian Eriksen Top Scorer Odds

Despite the fact that Eriksen became one of the top scorers in the qualification, Christian Eriksen top scorer odds World Cup are 100/1, which is not a lot.

Gambling sites realise that he isn’t a real striker, nor is he as skilled as players like Neymar and Ronaldo. Finally, Denmark is unlikely to go to the finals, which means fewer opportunities for Eriksen to score as much as possible.

Nevertheless, we believe that he will have many chances to show his skills and teamwork abilities as their group shouldn’t be too difficult to advance from. While France is a difficult opponent, Peru and Australia aren’t so much.

Christian Eriksen is one of the best attackers and most promising players in the current Denmark squad and after his exceptional performance in the qualifiers, people expect him to shine during the tournament too.
