Hungary vs Netherlands prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - Oсtober 11, 2024
In the third round of the UEFA Nations League in Division A, Hungary will face the Netherlands. The match will take place in Budapest on Friday, October 11, with kickoff scheduled for 20:45 Central European Time. The prediction for this match has been prepared by experts from Dailysports.
Hungary
The Hungarian team has recently accustomed their fans to decent results. They narrowly missed advancing to the knockout stage of Euro 2024, and their start in the Nations League has also been disappointing.
A 0-5 loss to Germany and a goalless draw at home against Bosnia are not the best results. It seems that Hungary will fight for third place, but they are capable of challenging stronger teams.
Netherlands
The Netherlands performed well in the European Championship, reaching the semifinals. Ronald Koeman's team missed out on a win against England only in the final moments of the match.
In the Nations League, the Dutch scored five goals against Bosnia and Herzegovina and then drew with Germany. While their attack is strong, conceding four goals in two matches suggests some defensive issues.
Match Facts
- Hungary has not scored in their last two matches.
- The Netherlands has conceded two goals in three consecutive matches.
- Hungary averages 1.3 goals per game at home, while the Netherlands averages 2 goals per game when playing away.
Probable Lineups
- Hungary: Gulácsi, Orbán, Botka, Dárdai, Nagy, Schäfer, Bolla, Csoboth, Sallai, Szoboszlai, Varga.
- Netherlands: Verbruggen, J. Timber, Van Dijk, De Ligt, Dumfries, K. Timber, Gravenberch, Reijnders, Malen, Simons, Gakpo.
Head-to-Head
In head-to-head encounters, the Dutch have a huge advantage, having won the last eight matches. Hungary hasn't beaten the Netherlands since 1984.
Prediction
Hungary may be able to put up a fight, but it will be difficult to take points from a strong Dutch side. I predict a clean victory for the visitors.
