Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Netherlands vs Italy

Netherlands

The Netherlands failed to succeed at home and lost in the Nations League semi-finals to Croatia. The Oranges seemed to save that game in the last minutes of the match, but still fell in extra time and ended up with nothing, and now they will play in a duel for third place.

In the new match, Ronald Koeman can afford to experiment with the squad and give a chance to play to those players who did not take part in the previous meeting. On the side of the Netherlands will be the support of local fans, who are clearly expecting a stronger game from their favorites in the new match.

Italy

The Italians also lost in an embarrassing way, the team conceded the decisive goal in the last minutes of the match against Spain. The team of Roberto Mancini was in no way inferior to their opponent and even took the lead, but the goal of the Italian team was canceled after the intervention of the VAR.

Like the Dutch, the Italian team can afford to rotate their squad for the Nations League bronze medal. For the Italian team, such a game is a match with increased responsibility, in which the result will still come first. This means that Mancini's wards will want to return home with at least one victory.
