The consensus
The equation for Australia is simple - a win against Denmark will guarantee them a round of 16 berth. A draw will also be enough for Australia to qualify, granted Tunisia do not beat France, as the latter will beat out the Socceroos on goal difference if that scenario takes place.
A loss against Denmark will see the Aussies bow out of the tournament, regardless of the result between France and Tunisia.
