The first and last place teams will face off in Nations League Group A in Group 4. It will be a clash between the unbeaten Netherlands and Wales, who are not putting in a convincing performance that should keep them in the top group of the Nations League.
The Netherlands are in fantastic form. They have been unbeaten for seventeen games in a row. They have played three matches in the Nations League this year, winning twice and drawing once.
The last match was a draw, when they were 0:2 down against Poland, but managed to level the match. In addition, Memphis Depay failed to convert a penalty in injury time, which would have completed the Dutch turnaround.
The Netherlands lead the group with seven points, three ahead of Belgium and Poland. Last-placed Wales have just one point from three games played. It managed to draw 1-1 with Belgium. However, if they want to stay up, their performances so far will not be enough.
Wales and the Netherlands have played each other once this year. The Dutch were the winners, winning 2-1 in Wales. Koopmeiners sent the Netherlands into the lead shortly after the start of the second half. In injury time, they managed to equalise thanks to a goal by Norrington-Davies.
The Welsh joy didn’t last too long, however, as another goal fell in injury time. For the second time it was the visitors who came through and it was Weghorst who secured three points for his side.
Never in the history of the game had Wales managed to beat the Netherlands. Moreover, in the last eight matches between the two sides, they have always scored at least two goals.
The Netherlands are clearly the favourites, with a comfortable position in the table and the home support playing into their hands. We expect the home team to win and score at least two goals against their opponents again.
