The Netherlands had low expectations before the start of EURO 2024, but Ronald Koeman’s team have exceeded all possible targets to reach the semi-final stage.
Their chances of that appeared to be slim following the group stage after winning just once in three matches to finish third in Group D. However, they have grown into the tournament and showed excellent character in their quarterfinal showdown with Turkey after netting twice in the final twenty minutes.
The win on Saturday saw them achieve a first semi-final showdown at the EUROs since 2004, and their attacking quality could be an important factor to consider this week. Only Spain and Germany have netted more goals than the Dutch so far this summer.
However, the Netherlands have lost four of their last five semi-final appearances at the EUROs.
| Recent Form (all competitions, most recent first) | W-W-L-D-W |
| Key Players to Watch | Cody Gakpo, Xavi Simons, Virgil van Dijk |
| Team Strengths | Excellent attacking quality, especially in the wide areas. |
| Team Weaknesses | Unproven midfield at this stage of an international tournament. |
The aim for Gareth Southgate and his England squad before the start of the tournament was clear- to win a first major tournament since 1966.
They will be a prominent selection when making a Netherlands vs England prediction this week, but the Three Lions are still yet to show their very best level of performance. England needed penalties to overcome Switzerland on Saturday, but they showed excellent calmness under intense pressure to overcome the Swiss.
However, it remains a major concern that England are yet to click into gear in the final third, having won just once in five matches in normal time this summer.
Meanwhile, they have scored just five goals in Germany, which is four fewer than their rivals on Wednesday. However, compared to the Netherlands, England at least have recent winning experience in the semi-finals after overcoming Denmark at this stage at EURO 2020.
| Recent Form (all competitions, most recent first) | D (W on Pens) – W (AET) – D- D-W |
| Key Players to Watch | Jude Bellingham, Declan Rice, Luke Shaw |
| Team Strengths | World class talent across the field. |
| Team Weaknesses | Attacking players yet to find their best form. |
England have recorded just one win in their last nine matches against the Netherlands, with their only success coming in March 2018 (0-1). It is important to consider before making a Netherlands vs England prediction that the Three Lions have won just 27% of their matches against the Dutch.
However, England were 4-1 winners at EURO 96 against the Netherlands, which was the latest meeting between the sides at a major tournament.

The Netherlands look capable of asking big questions of this England defence on Wednesday, and one of their star players to this point has been Liverpool’s Cody Gakpo. The 25-year-old is the joint highest scorer at this European Championship after netting three goals and one assist in five matches in Germany.
Luke Shaw’s return to fitness could be a massive boost for England this week. The Man United defender came off the bench in Saturday’s win over Switzerland, and he could be handed a first start this summer against the Netherlands.
At the very least, Shaw will offer some balance to the England side, which could allow the attacking players to have more freedom to flourish.
A lot was made of England’s potential return to a back three on Saturday, but in truth, they still operated in a very similar system as they had in their four previous matches.
However, the fact that the Dutch could dominate possession this week means that a traditional return to a back three could be a likely solution for Gareth Southgate.
Luke Shaw’s return to fitness will likely see him slot in as the left-wing back, while Bukayo Saka could play more advanced following the struggles endured by Phil Foden this summer.
The Netherlands will once again deploy a 4-2-3-1 formation, with England likely needing to play close attention to Xavi Simons in the number ten role.
Southgate is unlikely to allow his team to lose their shackles in this semi-final showdown, meaning that the Three Lions are expected to deliver another workman-like performance. However, unlike other teams in history, this England side has an uncanny ability to win ugly at major tournaments.
We expect both teams to score on Wednesday, but we expect the Three Lions to progress to the final. A sound EURO 2024 prediction would be for a draw in 90 minutes before Southgate’s side progress in extra time.
Declan Rice has been one of the standout players for England at the EUROs this summer. The Arsenal man has registered one assist in five matches and six efforts on goal.
Rice’s bursts from midfield have seen him make four runs into the attacking third, and he could be excellent value in the betting to register a third shot on target this summer against the Netherlands.
