Germany vs Netherlands Prediction & Betting Tips (14 October)

In September, Germany started this new Nations League campaign in a very good way by inflicting a real correction on Hungary 5-0 before taking a good point in the Netherlands three days later 2-2. Back at a very good level since the arrival on the bench of Julian Nagelsmann in September 2023, Germany showed great promise during Euro 2024 played on its soil. Jamal Musiala's teammates displayed one of the most attractive games of the competition. Leaders of their group, they then dismissed Denmark in the round of 16 2-0 before narrowly falling against the future winner, Spain, in the quarter 1-2 after extra time. During the last meeting, the Netherlands perfectly launched this new edition of the Nations League with a convincing success against Bosnia-Herzegovina 5-2 before sharing the points, at home, against Germany 2-2.

Present at Euro 2024 this summer, the Oranje blew hot and cold. Little to their advantage during the group stage, they had to settle for 3rd place, behind Austria and France. The Netherlands then rose to dominate Romania in the 8th 3-0 and Turkey in the quarter 2-1 before narrowly losing to England in the semi-final 1-2.

After Euro 2024, Germany opened a new chapter by taking note of the international retirements of Neuer (Bayern Munich), Kroos (retired), Gündogan (Manchester City) and Müller (Bayern Munich). Furthermore, for this gathering, it is necessary to mention the packages of the goalkeeper ter Stegen (Barcelona, ​​42 sel), the essential Musiala (Bayern Munich, 6 goals in 36 sel) as well as the attackers Havertz (Arsenal, 19 goals in 53 sel) and Füllkrug (West Ham, 14 goals in 22 sel). We also note the absences of full-back Raum (Leipzig, 26 sel), midfielder Can (Dortmund, 48 sel) and winger Sané (Bayern Munich, 13 goals in 65 sel). In the offensive sector, Wirtz (Leverkusen, 4 goals in 25 seasons) and Gnabry (Bayern Munich, 22 goals in 45 seasons) are expected to play a major role in this rally. Behind, we find captains such as captain Kimmich (Bayern Munich, 93 sel) and Rüdiger (Real Madrid, 74 sel). Many elements are missing for the Netherlands during this gathering.

Either by choice or injury, defenders Aké (Manchester City, 53 sel), Timber (Arsenal, 17 sel) and van Hecke (Brighton, 1 sel), midfielders de Jong (Barcelona, ​​54 sel), de Roon (Atalanta , 42 sel), Koopmeiners (Juventus, 21 sel), Veerman (PSV, 16 sel) and Schouten (PSV, 13 sel) and the attackers Depay (Corinthians, 46 goals in 98 sel), Weghorst (Ajax, 13 goals in 41 sel) and Bergwijn (Al-Ittihad, 8 goals in 35 sel) are absent. Captain van Dijk (Liverpool, 76 sel) is, however, very present, as is right-back Dumfries (Inter, 60 sel) who lost his starting place with his club. In midfield, Reijnders (AC Milan, 17 sel) and Gravenberch (Liverpool, 14 sel) should start. Often to his advantage with the Oranje, Gakpo (Liverpool, 13 goals in 32 seasons) is there as are the other offensive players Simons (Leipzig, 3 goals in 22 seasons) and Zirkzee (Manchester United, 1 goal in 3 seasons).
