Christian Eriksen and Rasmus Hojlund have been benched for Denmarks starting line-up against Portugal where Mika Biereth will make his debut from the start.

In his third game as coach for the Danish national team, Brian Riemer has decided to shake things up by making no less than six changes in the starting line-up compared to his last game. 

Brian Riemer has chosen to start with 22-year-old Mika Biereth, who has shown great form for AS Monaco in recent months scoring 11 goals in the last nine games in Ligue 1.

Consequently Rasmus Hojlund takes place on the bench.
