The Netherlands started the competition with a convincing home win of 5:2 against Bosnia. However, this remains the only win for the team in the group and they need more points if they want to finish second and continue to the playoffs. In their last eight home matches, the Netherlands has six wins, one draw, and one loss, with the draw being 2:2 against Germany in this group, and the loss being 1:2 against France during the Euro qualifiers.
Hungary started with a heavy 0:5 defeat as a guest to Germany. In their last match, they managed to win 2:0 as a guest against Bosnia. This puts them on equal points with the Netherlands and makes this a direct battle for second place in the group. Hungary drew 1:1 at home against the "Tulips," who have been a tough opponent for the Hungarians lately. Before that draw, Hungary had suffered eight consecutive losses to the Netherlands, and we have to go back to 1984 for the last Hungarian victory over this opponent.
Prediction: Netherlands to win and over 1.5 goalsI expect the Netherlands to ultimately achieve victory at home, even if Hungary does not give up easily, and it would not be surprising if there are more than one goal in the match.
