    This game is poised to be a real cracker. These are two teams tipped to go quite far in the competition. Denmark have gained this dark horse status and Pernille Harder is capable of doing anything she wants on the pitch.

  2. Team news

    Germany v Denmark (20:00 BST)

    Germany are without long-serving midfielder Dzsenifer Marozsan and Chelsea's Melanie Leupolz but midfielder Svenja Huth - 13 goals in 66 appearances for her country - captains the side.

    Chelsea keeper Ann-Katrin Berger is on the bench.

    Denmark include attack-minded Chelsea player Pernille Harder - one of the best players in the world - who has 68 goals in 134 appearances for her country.

    Everton's Rikke Sevecke, Reading's Sanne Troelsgaard and Manchester United's Signe Bruun all start.

  3. Germany v Denmark (20:00 BST)

    ..

    Hello!

    Welcome to what promises to be a cracker of a game as eight-times champions Germany take on Denmark.

    Spain have already laid down a marker in Group B with a 4-1 win against Finland so will either of these two sides respond to that with a big result to kick things off?

    You can watch the game live on BBC One and online from 19:45 BST.

  4. Record-holders to rekindle past glories?

    Germany have dominated European football over the years but last won the trophy in 2013

    No-one has enjoyed success at the European Women's Championship quite like Germany.

    They have won a record eight titles, including six of the last seven.

    However, they head into this tournament not quite as mighty as they once were. They have fallen to fifth in the Fifa rankings and did not make it past the quarter-finals at Euro 2017 or the 2019 World Cup.

    Will Euro 2022 see them rekindle past glories? Or will their faltering form at major tournaments continue?
