Netherlands to avoid missing Euro 2024

Netherlands to avoid missing Euro 2024

Netherlands meet with Greece in a crucial match, which may cost them their chance of qualifying in the Euro 2024. Currently, in their group standings, these two teams are just next to each other, battling for their qualification in the Euro 2024. From their standings, it was Greece who has a better chance of qualifying, sitting at the second, while Netherlands is at the third. Greece is with a three points lead, so a loss for the Netherlands means bidding goodbye for their spots in the Euro 2024. These two teams are coming from different results here. Netherlands suffered a 2-1 loss against France, while Greece is from a 2-0 win against Ireland. Moreover, this is already the 11th meeting between these two teams. This meeting is on October 17, 2023, at 2:45 AM (GMT+8).

Netherlands suffered a 2-1 defeat against France in Amsterdam due to injuries. Kylian Mbappe made goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen’s senior international debut, and Quilindschy Hartman’s debut goal was a consolation. The Netherlands’ second defeat from five games in Group B leaves them third in a five-team section, with winnable fixtures against Ireland and Gibraltar. The Netherlands will have their Nations League feats to fall back on if their top-two dreams crash and burn, having qualified for and hosted last year’s finals. However, defensive deficiencies forced Oranje to settle for fourth place. Despite this, the Netherlands managed to win 3-0 against Greece in a qualifier, marking their eighth win from 10 contests against the Pirate Ship. Ronald Koeman’s three first-half goals helped the Netherlands secure a 3-0 victory against Greece.

Wout Weghorst, who sustained an unspecified issue last game is available for this match. However, Donyell Malen, who replaced him, might also be a starter here, as he had an impressive game.

Euro Qualifiers: Greece

Greece is close to a first Euros appearance since reaching the 2012 quarter-finals, following a group-stage exit in the 2008 edition. The Pirate Ship’s men travelled to Dublin to replicate their narrow victory over the Republic of Ireland four months ago. After surviving early scares, they turned the screw with a powerful header by Georgios Giakoumakis and a scuffed shot by Dimitrios Pelkas. The Pirate Ship secured their second-placed standing in Group B, three points behind France, and an emphatic win over the Netherlands would see them join Les Bleus in Germany with a game to spare. However, the Pirate Ship still has three points ahead of the Dutch and must host France in their final Group B fixture next month. Despite the worst-case scenario, Poyet’s men will earn a ticket to the playoffs.

Greece are without no new injuries coming into this game, as well as suspension here. Moreover, expect that there will be no changes in their squad, following the result of their last game.

Prediction:

Netherlands (1.5)
Odds: -0.80
