The Netherlands are confidently performing at the play-off stage, although it should be noted at once that their opponents were Romania and Turkey. At Euro 2024, the Netherlands had France as their top opponents, the game with them ended in a draw, but it was Ronald Koeman's wards who were closer to victory.
Although England's game is criticised, the national team under Southgate's leadership can reach the Euro finals for the second time in a row. At this tournament "three lions" won only 1 match, all other games ended in a draw, in the playoffs the English in both matches were very close to the exit, but the team compared the score at the very end of the game.
Bookmakers give a slight preference to the England team, as the "three lions" have a stronger squad, but still on the level of play the Netherlands are not inferior to their opponent, the greater the chance that today England will play a draw.
Prediction: Netherlands double chance. We recommend the “1X” bet, odds 1.52
