Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Netherlands vs France

Netherlands

The Dutch national team in 2024 managed to take part in four friendly matches, achieving three victories and suffering one defeat. The “flying Dutchman” misfired on March 26, losing away to Germany 1:2. After that, Ronald Koeman's boys turned on, defeating Canada (4:0) and Iceland (4:0) in two matches in a row. The “orange” also started well at the Euro, beating the Polish team 2:1 in the first round. Accurate strikes from Gakpo and Weghorst brought victory to the Netherlands.

The Netherlands are in good form, having won 8 of their last 10 matches. The Orange should definitely make it to the playoffs.

France

In preparation for the tournament, the French national team managed to take part in four friendly matches, scoring two victories, drawing once and suffering one defeat. Just a week before the Euro, Didier Deschamps' boys met with the Canadian national team, where the team did not show the best result, drawing 0:0 at home. Already in the official match, the “roosters” showed themselves to be much more persistent, managing to break the resistance of the Austrian national team 1:0. The French won thanks to an own goal from Weber.

The French have not only positive emotions after the Euro. Mbappe broke his nose in the opening game of the tournament, so he may miss the meeting with the Orange.

Game Totals Prediction

The Dutch national team barely managed to take three points in the first game of the tournament; the team has a margin of safety, but it still needs to be realized. France also did not show great football at the start of the Euro, plus they lost their captain for some time. In a head-to-head meeting, the teams will have a draw, guaranteeing access to the playoffs. But I still think that the experience and class of Deschamps’ guys will allow them to achieve success: victory for France – 2.28.
