Holland v Denmark: match preview The Premier League's Golden Boot, the PFA Player of the Year, the Football Writers" Footballer of the Year and, at least for this summer transfer window, the most sought after club striker in Europe. It is fair to say that 2012 has represented something of an annus mirabilis for Robin van Persie, yet speak to people in Holland and they will point at one gaping hole in his CV. "I am very calm and am in the form of my life," said Van Persie. This Euro is my fourth major finals. I am now mature, a lot more capable of handling the pressure. I have not had serious physical problems this season. I played at a high level for 38 matches with my club. It has been my best campaign. The fascination for Holland, however, is that in Schalke's Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, they have another striker in the form of his life. Huntelaar completed this Bundelisga season with 48 goals - surpassing even Van Persie's record at Arsenal - and also has a better international strike-rate, having scored 32 times in 53 games. Holland, though, are committed to a 4-2-3-1 system that will accommodate only one striker, with Van Persie's superior link-up play almost certain to ensure that he starts on Saturday. The Arsenal captain's gesture in allowing Huntelaar to keep the No 9 shirt also suggests a certain team harmony that has not always been Holland's strong suit. "I'll let Huntelaar keep the No 9 shirt as he is very attached to it," said Van Persie. The objective is to win the Euros and this match will set the tone for our tournament. Holland coach Bert van Marwijk, who confirmed that centre-back Joris Mathijsen is out with a hamstring injury , said: "I expect Denmark to be defensive and await the chance to counter-attack," Denmark also suffered a significant injury blow on Friday when midfielder Niki Zimling was taken away in an ambulance after an incident during training at Kharkiv's Metalist Stadium. His midfield place is likely to be taken by Christian Poulsen.
