WC2010 - Bendtner and Kjaer fitness battle

Denmark coach Morten Olsen is weighing up whether to risk Nicklas Bendtner and Simon Kjaer in their opening World Cup match against Holland on June 14.

Highly-rated defender Kjaer suffered a knee injury in a friendly against Senegal on May 27 while Arsenal striker Bendtner has been dogged by a thigh problem.

Denmark have other injury worries to contend with as goalkeeper Thomas Sorensen is still recovering from the dislocated elbow he sustained playing for Stoke in April.

Captain Jon Dahl Tomasson's bid to end his 13-match scoreless run is not being helped by a groin problem.
