Netherlands vs Poland Predictions

• Four of the Netherlands’ last five home games ended in -1 handicap-busting wins.
• Netherlands lost just three of the 17 all-time H2H meetings.
• Poland head into this clash on the back of their heaviest defeat in over a decade (6-1 vs Belgium).

A rocking Rotterdam can help the Dutchmen fly

The home of Feyenoord, De Kuip, welcomes the Netherlands national side for their first home game of this Nations League campaign and what a run it has been so far, with back-to-back away wins igniting Dutch dreams of reaching the grand finals if only they can keep up their red hot form.

Highlighting their strength in depth, Louis van Gaal switched out every player from their opening day 4-1 win over Belgium in the 2-1 success over Wales last time out. The iconic manager is blessed with an embarrassment of riches and as such, expect a strong display no matter the starting XI.

The latest victory extended the Dutch unbeaten run to 11 games, their longest such run since almost ten years ago! Combine that with a dominant all-time H2H record with Poland (W8, D6, L3) and we could be in for some more Dutch dominance.

Poland need a monumental bounce back

Despite racing into a 1-0 lead last time out, Poland ended up falling to their worst defeat in over ten years last time out (6-1 vs Belgium). That defeat was only their second by a 5+ goal margin in this century, so picking themselves up mentally must be a priority for Poland.

Compounding matters for Poland is the fact that they have won just one Nations League group away game since the introduction of the competition (W1, D2, L3) and that was against Bosnia… the lowest ranked team that they have faced in the competition so far!

We predict that Netherlands will simply have too much for Poland to deal with in this clash and as such, we are taking them on in the -1 handicap market. As for the correct score, we are siding with a relatively straightforward 2-0 home win.
