Finland - Netherlands: betting tip (cf 3.90) and bets on the World Cup qualifying match

Current form

The Finnish national team made a good bid for a possible entry into the World Cup finals, scoring four points in the opening two rounds of the qualifying tournament. However, the team has not yet met with the main favorites. We managed to beat Malta with a minimum score of 1-0 on the road. Then there was an away draw with Lithuania (2:2). In the game against the Lithuanians, we can say that the Finns lost two points, as they confidently spent the opening period, led 2-0, could have scored more than once, but instead allowed the opponent to score two goals. As a result, with four points, the national team approaches the upcoming meeting in second place, two points behind Poland. Of course, so far all tournament layouts are conditional, since the main favorite of the group, the Netherlands, are joining the fight only today.

If the Finns started the qualifying tournament for the World Cup with dignity, then the team completely failed the Nations League draw in Division B. We failed to score a single point in six matches. Of course, the opponents were not easy (England, Greece and Ireland), but one could hardly expect such a complete failure, especially when it comes to attacking (only two goals scored).

It should be noted that after an unsuccessful performance in the League of Nations, the Finnish national team underwent a change of coach. The team is currently headed by Jacob Friis, who previously worked on the coaching staff of Augsburg, Germany.

Current form

The Dutch national team has not been stable lately. This is largely due to the fact that Ronald Koeman is leading a generational change in the team. The Orange team's results are not the most outstanding right now: only one victory in seven previous matches. Nevertheless, some progress is worth noting.

In the League of Nations, the national team qualified for the playoffs only from the second place in the group. The German squad could not compete equally, and the gap at the finish was five points. In the quarterfinals, the Dutch played Spain, and there was a bright two-legged confrontation. At first, the opponents drew 2 in the Netherlands.:2. In the second leg in Spain, again, at the end of 90 minutes, the numbers on the scoreboard were 2:2, in extra time, the opponents exchanged goals and only in the penalty shootout did the Spaniards advance to the semifinals. Definitely, equal fights with the reigning European champion demonstrated the serious potential of the Orange.

Due to their participation in the playoffs of the League of Nations, Ronald Koeman's wards are only starting to compete in the qualifying tournament for the World Cup today. It should be noted that the Dutch finished their last World Cup selection on a nine-match unbeaten streak (seven wins and two draws).
