Having finished as runners-up in 2017, Denmark will be hoping to go one better and lift their first major trophy in Switzerland.
They also reached the semi-finals in 2013, but their record took a hit at the last Championship in England, with a surprise elimination at the group stage.
Their squad is packed full of international experience, but they will have to finish above one of either Germany or Denmark to qualify for the knockout stage in a competitive looking Group C in the upcoming tournament.

Denmark Manager: Andrée Jeglertz
Jeglertz took charge in 2023, following Denmark’s elimination at the round of 16 stage at the World Cup.
That brought the end the six-year spell of Lars Søndergaard, with Jeglertz the first non-Dane to lead the women’s national side.
The Swede was a professional player in his own right over a 13-year career, after coming through the ranks at hometown club Malmo. Having also previously managed Finland women, the greatest achievement of Jeglertz’s coaching career came in 2004, where he led Umeå IK to the UEFA Women’s Cup, the forerunner to the Champions League.
Denmark’s star player
Denmark Star Player: Pernille Harder
The former Chelsea star, and previous holder of the women’s transfer record, is still very much the star name in the Denmark squad.
Harder, 32, now plays for Bayern Munich, having left west London in 2023. A talented forward who is capable of playing centrally or on either wing, she has led the Denmark team for nearly a decade, having first been awarded the armband in 2016.
Denmark’s long-serving captain and all-time leading scorer is a two-time recipient of UEFA’s Women’s Player of the Year award and has 158 caps.
