Anders Bleg Christiansen (born 8 June 1990) is a Danish professional footballer who plays for Allsvenskan club Malmö FF as a midfielder. He also serves as club captain since 2020. A full international since 2014, he was part of the Denmark squad at UEFA Euro 2020.

Due to the moderate mutual intelligibility between Danish and Swedish, Christiansen speaks a less dialectal version of his native language to the Swedish press as Malmö captain. He became fully comfortable with comprehending Swedish speech after several years in the country. This caused reactions when the Swedish broadcaster began an interview with him in English in 2020, only for Christiansen to respond that he preferred to do a cross-lingual interview instead.

Christiansen grew up as a supporter of English club Liverpool. During his professional career he has admitted it became a 'bit more distant'.

Christiansen has represented the Denmark national team in three friendlies. After a successful spring in Malmö he got called up by former Malmö coach Åge Hareide in May 2016, but had to decline after suffering a thigh injury. He was, surprisingly to most, included in the 26-man squad for the UEFA Euro 2020 tournament by Denmark coach Kasper Hjulmand.
