ANTHEM TIME!

AND HERE THEY COME!
19:52
OUR TEAMS ARE TUNNELLED
And though ITV have given us no build-up, instead handing us one channel gabbing on about England, we've got Andros Townsend co-commentating, which is good news.
19:45
WORTH NOTING
Austria have won Group D, which means France, who were second, are in the same half of the draw as Portugal, Germany and Spain. Thus, while winning Group C might mean Netherlands next, it also means being on the opposite side to them lot - Gareth Southgate can't complain about his tournament luck.

SOMETHING I'VE LOVED ABOUT THESE EUROS
Is that every game is proper, with both sides having loads of fans making a row. I'm certain that won't change in this one, especially with so much at stake. I guess it's what happens when the host is central and easily accessible by road, train and plane, and also has a diverse population.
19:33
AS FOR DENMARK
They'll want Rasmus Hojlund attacking space in behind, but Serbia's back three make that difficult - he might be best advised to pull wider and look to isolate or go outside the wide centre-backs. Otherwise, they'll be looking for Christian Eriksen between the lines and Morten Hjulmand pushing on.
19:30
WHERE IS THE GAME?
Serbia are all about crosses and set-pieces, and it seems unlikely that'll change - though without Vlahovic and the still-omitted Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, they've fewer targets at which to aim. So they'll want to get the ball wide, and given some decent bench-options, won't mind sticking in the game until the last 20.
19:26
THREE CHANGES FOR SERBIA
Filip Mladenović, Dušan Vlahović and Dusan Tadic are all benched following last week's last-second escape against Slovenia. So Srdan Mijailovic is on the right of midfield with Andrija Zivkovic moving to the left; Lazar Samardzic replaces Dusan Vlahovic in attack - he'll be on the right - and Nemanja Gudelj is in in midfield. Consequently, they change formation from 3-4-2-1 to 3-4-3.
19:24
ONE CHANGE FOR DENMARK
Alexander Bah comes in for Rasmus Kristensen on the left side of midfield, but otherwise it's the same side that felt it ought to have beaten England last week. They'll line up in a 3-4-1-2 formation.

I'll write these down, then we'll discuss what they mean.

HELLO AND WELCOME
Are you sitting comfortably? Then I'll make you less so. Denmark qualify for the last 16 with a draw, as they'll be guaranteed to be one of the best third-place finishers; if they draw and England win, they finish second; if both matches are draw, second place will be decided on goals scored, so whichever team is involved in the higher-scoring draw will move on; if there's no difference, fairplay points will break the tie; and if that's level it'll be Denmark through as they're the higher-ranked.
Serbia qualify for the last 16 with a win, and will finish second if England don't lose; a draw or a defeat and they're out. 
Kick-off: 8pm BST
