Prediction: 0-0
England
A spot in the EURO 2024 final will be at stake when Netherlands and England go head to head at Signal Iduna Park on Wednesday evening. Netherlands came from behind to beat Turkey 2-1 in the quarter-finals, with Liverpool ace Cody Gakpo once again helping the Oranje emerge triumphant. Barring any fresh injury worries, Ronald Koeman is unlikely to make changes to the starting XI that faced Turkey.
The Three Lions, on the other hand, defeated Switzerland on penalties following yet another under-par performance. Anyhow, we believe that there is a big value in betting on under 2.5 goals as England are defending pretty well. Luke Shaw is pushing for a start as well as Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi, who returns from suspension. In their last meeting at the European Championship finals, back in 1996, England crushed Netherlands 4-1, but a low-scoring affair is on the cards this time out.
Highlighted Player (Harry Kane):
Widely regarded as one of England’s best strikers at the moment, Harry Kane enjoyed a meteoric rise at Tottenham Hotspur, scoring 21 Premier League goals during the 2014/2015 campaign to be voted PFA Young Player of the Year.
The highly rated striker went on to surpass that achievement the following season as he helped Tottenham Hotspur mount a serious title challenge for the first time in club’s recent history and he made seamless transition to international football. Kane scored four goals in his first ten appearances for England to prove he was here to stay and at the same time established himself as a first choice striker in Roy Hodgson’s squad ahead of the Euro 2016 finals.
Kane is a modern striker, who is extremely dangerous in the opposition box, but it was some outstanding goals from distance as well as link-up play with teammates that earned him an excellent reputation in world football. Kane is expected to lead both Tottenham and England in years to come, that is if he can resist the lure of top European clubs that continue to cast admiring glances his way.
Highlighted Team (Netherlands):
Netherlands are well known for the colour of their shirts. The orange colour is the symbol of the Dutch national team and that is the reason why they got a nickname the Oranje. Netherlands won the 1988 European Championship in West Germany, with the team beating the Soviet Union in the title game.
A number of top-class players were part of the Netherlands national team that won the Euro 1988 trophy, with the likes of Ruud Gullit, Marco van Basten, Frank Rijkaard and Erwin Koeman all starting the match against the Soviet Union. However, many people consider Johan Cruyff the best player in the history of Dutch football. Cruyff won three European Cups with Ajax as a player and he clinched the European Cup with Barcelona as a coach.
Johan Cruyff is well known as “the father of modern football”. Netherlands participated in the World Cup final on three occasions (1974, 1978, 2010), but they have yet to win the prestigious trophy. The Oranje welcome their rivals at Amsterdam ArenA, Philips Stadion and Stadion Feijenoord.
