Northern Ireland v Netherlands Team News

The Oranje had to play under so much pressure last time out in a game against Belarus as the likes of Germany and Northern Ireland were hot on their tails. They handled the overwhelming pressure pretty well racing to a 2-0 lead so early in the game before hitting a brick wall soon after.

The goals were no longer forthcoming and they were forced to play a deep defensive line, thanks to the high pressing of the Belarus team in the second period. Their pressure soon paid off however, netting a goal, albeit, a consolation as the Dutchmen held on to their lead to secure maximum points.

Northern Ireland, on the other hand, had the mighty German machines to contend with on away soil. Heading into the game as slight underdogs given the sheer dominance in terms of talent within the German ranks, the Irishmen fell to a late 2-0 defeat at the death.

Micheal O’Neill can give his players a pat on the back for the resilience and tenacity they showed throughout the game, despite losing in the end.

With the race for qualification heated up in Group C and these two teams actively involved in this race, it is expected to be a fierce fixture, this one. Due to home advantage, Northern Ireland stand a chance of walking out of this match with a major upset. They do not realty have so much to lose.

Tipping the Green and White Army for the win will be a tricky move however, given the quality of the opponents on the cards. The safest punt will be Netherlands heading home with maximum points considering their form and talent at their disposal.

If my memory is right, this is the same Netherlands team that performed so well in the Nations League and lost in the final of the same tournament. Their desire to get back to the top tier of world football should spur them to the win in Belfast come tomorrow evening.
