The game starts at 8:45 p.m. UTC+1. It can be viewed live online thru FuboTV.

Denmark is currently at the fourth spot of the Group E table, two points behind third-place team Romania and four points below Montenegro and Poland who are tied at the top of the group with seven points each.

The Danes are on a downward spiral as of late with two straight defeats after winning their tournament-opener against Armenia.

Their last match was a 0-1 upset loss to 56th-ranked Montenegro on Oct. 11 also at their home field of Parken Stadium, Yahoo Sports reported.

Montenegrin forward Fatos Beciraj netted the lone goal of the match in the 32nd minute as he directed teammate Stevan Jovetic's cross towards the net of Danish goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel.

Schmeichel will not be available in this match versus the Kazakhs because of an injury. The Leicester City shot-stopper suffered a broken hand in a 0-0 Champions League draw with FC Copenhagen on Wednesday.

Schmeichel is ruled out for four to six weeks and could be replaced by Brondby's Frederik Ronnow in head coach Age Hareide starting eleven.

Meanwhile, Kazakhstan is still winless after three rounds of matches. However, they were able to pull off two draws for two points, including an impressive 2-2 stalemate with powerhouse squad Poland.

Their last game was a goalless tie with Romania at their home field of Astana Arena in the country's capital city of Astana also on Oct. 11, as per ESPN.

Kazakh striker Sergey Khizhnichenko almost broke the game's deadlock in the 21st minute but he was caught offside following a through ball from teammate Dmitriy Shomko.
