Netherlands

After a 0-4 defeat in their opening qualifier against France, the Dutch bounced back with three consecutive wins, climbing to second place in Group B. They trail the group leaders, France, by six points but have a game in hand. In their last three Euro 2024 qualifiers, the Netherlands scored eight goals and conceded just once.


Key absences include forwards Cody Gakpo and Memphis Depay, goalkeeper Mark Flekken, and defender Matthijs de Ligt, all sidelined due to injuries.


  • The team has won 8 of their last 10 Euro qualifiers (1 draw, 1 loss).
  • At home, the Dutch have won their last four Euro qualifiers with an aggregate score of 14-1.
  • At least 3 goals have been scored in the Netherlands' last 7 home Euro qualifiers.

France

The World Cup runners-up are the undisputed leaders of Group B. France has won all five matches in the current qualifying campaign with an aggregate score of 11-0. Alongside Portugal, France is one of the two teams that have kept a clean sheet in the current qualifiers. Their winning streak in Euro qualifiers has now reached seven matches.


Due to injuries, several key defenders, including Jules Kounde, Dayot Upamecano, Axel Disasi, and William Saliba, could not join the squad.


  • France's unbeaten run in Euro qualifiers stands at 12 matches (11 wins, 1 draw).
  • The team has scored in 12 consecutive Euro qualifiers, scoring at least twice in 8 of those matches.
  • France has won "to nil" in their last five away Euro qualifiers.

Netherlands vs. France: Match Prediction

The hosts will be highly motivated after their heavy defeat in the first-round match against France. Since 1961, the Netherlands has only suffered such a heavy defeat twice, both times against France. The previous 0-4 loss to the "Les Bleus" was during the 2018 World Cup qualifiers. However, the first-round match of the current qualifiers was an away game for the Dutch, and several key players were absent from the squad.


France will also be motivated, as a win will secure their spot in the Euro 2024 finals. Therefore, we can expect both teams to be active. Given the significant defensive absences, it will be challenging for the visitors to maintain their clean sheet streak against a motivated Dutch side. However, France's 12-match scoring streak in Euro qualifiers is unlikely to be interrupted.


Therefore, my prediction: Both teams to score – yes
