The Arsenal striker was a doubt for the last two matches and it appears he is a doubt for this one tonight, but we reckon he'll play and we think it is just media speculation surrounding his non appearance at training every other day.

Denmark coach Morten Olsen said: "He has been doing quite all right. It's by necessity that every other day he does not participate in the practise.

"Every time he has played we wait to see the reaction from his injury. There's always a doubt when we have injuries like that, so we will have to wait and see."

This is a crucial match for Denmark and they are going to need all their best players and we think Bendtner is one of them. If he doesn't play tonight we are going to revise our prediction form earlier and give it to the Japanese instead.
