Netherlands vs France Betting Preview
The Netherlands emerged triumphant with a 2-1 victory over Poland in their inaugural match. Wout Weghorst made a remarkable impact coming off the bench in the 83rd minute. Anyway, Ronald Koeman's men initially fell behind, displayed some vulnerability in defending set pieces, and also struggled to handle the fast Polish counterattacks. Despite these setbacks, the Oranje are in good form having won 8 out of their last 10 games. Their only defeats came at the hands of France and Germany.
France secured a narrow 1-0 victory over a tough Austria team, courtesy of an unfortunate own goal by Max Wober. This hard-earned win came at a high price, as Kylian Mbappe sustained a broken nose, rendering his return date uncertain. Les Blues are also in impressive form, having only encountered defeat in two out of their last 19 international matches within regular time, both of which were friendly encounters with Germany.
Regarding head-to-head encounters, France has emerged victorious in seven out of the past eight meetings between these nations, including both home and away matches last year. In fact, they found themselves grouped together during the Euro 2024 qualification stage.
Best Odds
Netherlands are 5/2 with Betfair, with France at 13/10 with QuinnBet to claim victory in the match. A draw is priced at 12/5 with BetMGM.
Probable Line-Ups
Netherlands (4-2-3-1): Verbruggen; Dumfries, De Vrij, Van Dijk, Ake; Veerman, Schouten; Simons, Reijnders, Gakpo; Depay.
The Netherlands have no fresh injury concerns following their triumph over Poland. Donyell Malen looked bright as a substitute and may replace Xavi Simons in the attacking lineup, providing Jeremie Frimpong as another viable option. Gini Wijnaldum's impactful performance from the bench may earn him a starting berth, while Wout Weghorst, despite his heroic display as a substitute, is not expected to feature from the off in this encounter.
France (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Kounde, Saliba, Upamecano, Hernandez; Kante, Rabiot; Dembele, Griezmann, Coman; Thuram.
Didier Deschamps faces a great uncertainty with Mbappe's nose injury, leaving his return date up in the air. The Real Madrid-bound forward might potentially miss two weeks of action, prompting Kingsley Coman, Olivier Giroud, or Randall Kolo Muani to step up and fill the void. On a positive note, Eduardo Camavinga and Aurelien Tchouameni from Real Madrid have recovered from their ankle and foot injuries respectively, providing potential options from the bench for Deschamps.
Netherlands v France Predictions
Without the talent of Kylian Mbappe, France could encounter difficulties finding the back of the net. Looking at their recent track record against the Netherlands, France has emerged victorious in seven out of their last eight encounters, including the qualifying matches where they won 4-0 at home and 2-1 when playing in Amsterdam. Anyway, Mbappè scored four of Les Bleus’ six goals against Oranje in those two games.
Without their standout player, this time the story might unfold differently, making the "Netherlands and draw" double chance quite tempting. We can observe that the odds for the 1X Double Chance are shortening, indicating that significant bets are being placed on this outcome.
Furthermore, five out of the last seven meetings between these teams have witnessed over 2.5 goals, and in 13 of the Netherlands' previous 15 internationals, three or more goals were scored. Hence, we can anticipate a high-scoring game, and our pick in the Correct Score market is a 2-2 draw.
Cody Gakpo looked brilliant against Poland, and we have confidence in Liverpool striker to register one or more shots on target.
