Poland vs Netherlands prediction and betting tips - June 16, 2024
The Sunday game day at the 2024 European Championship will kick off with a match at the Volksparkstadion in Hamburg, where Poland and the Netherlands will face off. Here is the prediction for this match from the Dailysports expert team.
Poland
The Polish national team received a relatively easy qualifying group, yet the "Eagles" managed to finish only in third place in their group, which included Albania, the Czech Republic, Moldova, and the Faroe Islands. Consequently, Poland had to secure their place in the tournament through the playoffs.
In the first match, they convincingly defeated Estonia 5-1 at home. However, the decisive qualification match against Wales was settled only in a penalty shootout after a dull 0-0 draw. In June, Poland played two friendly matches, defeating Ukraine 3-1 and Turkey 2-1.
Netherlands
The previous European Championship saw the Dutch national team eliminated in the first round of the playoffs by the Czech Republic. In the Euro 2024 qualifiers, the Netherlands recorded six wins and two losses in their matches against France, Greece, Ireland, and Gibraltar. This was enough to secure second place in the group and a spot in the main tournament.
In preparation for the European Championship, the "Oranje" played four friendly matches. In the spring, the Netherlands thrashed Scotland 4-0 at home, then lost 1-2 away to Germany. In June, the Dutch defeated Canada and Iceland with identical scores of 4-0.
Interesting Facts About the Match and Head-to-Head History
- In recent years, the teams have met in the Nations League, with the "Oranje" winning three out of their last four encounters.
- The "Total over 2.5 goals" bet has played out in three of their last five matches.
