Greece vs Netherlands: preview and betting tips
In the group from which France is already certain to qualify for the final championship, the runner-up will most likely be decided on Monday evening. The favourites will of course be the visitors, but the home team, driven by a boisterous crowd, will want to catch the favourites by surprise.

After years of footballing impotence, Greece is once again pulling out all the stops. But in this case, it may well turn a corner. Friday’s win in Ireland moved the team into second place in the group, three points ahead of the Dutch.
The Netherlands played their match against France and lost 1: 2, with the phenomenon Kylian Mbappé scoring twice. However, everything bad can be good for something, the Netherlands have already played both matches against France, so only the easiest opponents are waiting for them.
Group situation
Greece hold second position three points ahead of their opponents today. The Dutch, however, have one game less and a win from their first match. A draw today will not be enough for the home team if they want to qualify.
Another fact that doesn’t play into the hands of the home team is that they still have a rematch with France, who are already assured of promotion, but even if they don’t play with their best, the quality of their selection will be completely different.
Key players
On the home side, Liverpool player Konstantinos Tsimikas is definitely among the stars, he may not make many appearances in the English giant’s jersey, but he has a key role in the national team. In the match against Ireland he scored an assist for the first goal and he will definitely want to repeat his feat today.
Greece’s top scorer is Georgio Masouras, a striker with Olympiakos. He has 3 goals in 6 games on the club scene. The fact is that last season he had 4 goals in 33 games in the league, so at the start of this one he is already at last year’s goal tally.
The most prominent figure on the Dutch side is definitely defensive leader Virgil van Dijk. A man who is one of the few defenders to be shortlisted for the Ballon d’Or in his career. It is he who holds the Dutch defence, although his last game against France didn’t go so well.
With injuries to Memphis Depay or Frenkie de Jong, Leipzig’s offensive midfielder or winger Xavi Simmons is the biggest threat. He jumped into his new engagement in Germany headfirst and has 3 goals and 4 assists in 11 games. If the Greeks can neutralize him, they will increase their chances of keeping a clean sheet.
