Football prediction Netherlands vs France: Hard to stop Mbappe

France and the Netherlands are the two strongest teams in Group B of the EURO 2024 qualifiers. It is no surprise that they occupy the top two positions in the rankings and are close to the final round. The French team has 15 points after 5 wins. Meanwhile, the Netherlands has only played 4 matches, won 3 and their only defeat was the loss to the French team in the first leg.

Kylian Mbappe scored two goals in the opening qualifying match between the two teams. The captain of the French team has four goals in five appearances. The attacking stars of the reigning world runners-up are all in good form when they return to the national team. Coach Didier Deschamps has many options.

Mbappe was in good form in the EURO 2024 qualifiers.

In the most recent match - against Ireland, the French team launched 25 shots. In the past 5 matches in the qualifying round, France launched a total of 98 shots (29 on target) and have not conceded a single goal. The defeat in the 2022 World Cup final has absolutely no negative effect on Les Bleus' stable performance.

The Dutch team is in a difficult position, even though they are playing at home. In addition to the quality of the squad being inferior to the opponent, coach Ronald Koeman's team also does not have the strongest force in tonight's confrontation. They lost many key players due to injury, in which the most important names are Memphis Depay, Cody Gakpo and Jurrien Timber.

In the first leg, the Dutch team only lost to Mbappe. They controlled the ball equally, creating opportunities similar to the French team. However, doing that again in the rematch with a patchwork lineup is a very difficult task for coach Koeman and his team.

Expected lineup Netherlands vs France

Netherlands: Verbruggen; De Vrij, Van Dijk, Ake; Dumfries, De Roon, Veerman, Blind; Simons, Weghorst, Malen

France: Maignan; Pavard, Konate, L. Hernandez, T. Hernandez; Tchouameni, Rabiot; Dembele, Griezmann, Mbappe; Giroud

Prediction: Netherlands 0-2 France
