This penultimate round will first see France taking on Denmark at 17:30 hrs local time and then Spain battling it out against Germany at 20:00 hrs.

France came third in the same competition, beating Croatia 35:30. Denmark finished sixth at the Men’s 20 EHF EURO 2016.

In the quarter-finals in Algiers, France did not have to many troubles, eventually overcoming FYR Macedonia 33:17.
