Football commentary Netherlands vs Austria (23:00, June 25). Expert opinion, score prediction, expected lineup for the Netherlands vs Austria match in the EURO 2024 group stage.
Football prediction Netherlands vs Austria
After two matches, the Netherlands is the team holding the top spot in Group D with 4 points and is above France thanks to the number of goals scored despite having the same goal difference of +1. Winning Poland 2-1 in the opening match, the Orange Hurricane had an important draw against the strongest opponent in the group, the French team, and now the opportunity to win a ticket to the next round with the Netherlands is very big, even being the top spot in the group if they overcome Austria in the final match of the qualifying round.
In the match against France, Koeman and his team, despite being underestimated, had a fair performance against the candidates for the EURO 2024 championship. Even if Xavi Simons' goal had been recognized, it would have been a perfect three points for the Netherlands. However, the referee's decision, although controversial, cannot be reversed in the end, and the Netherlands will aim for another win, because this is within their reach.

On the other side of the field, the Austrian team was questioned before this EURO season when it was missing many key players, including top central defender David Alaba. However, up to now, everything has gone smoothly for coach Rangnick and his team. The 3-1 victory over Poland in the last round showed that the Austrian team was very worthy of a ticket to the next round because they now have 3 points, the opportunity is extremely bright even if they lose to the Netherlands and have 3rd place in Group D.
Certainly, the goal of getting points will be the priority of both teams. The Netherlands only needs a draw to get a direct ticket to the round of 16, while the Austrian team also prioritizes safety because they have a good goal difference in 3rd place.
Netherlands vs Austria
In terms of force, the Netherlands will keep the same squad that played in the draw with France. It can be seen that coach Koeman has a very fast attack line with the quartet Simons - Frimpong - Depay and Gakpo. Of course, to maintain the attacking power, behind them is a safe defense commanded by captain Van Dijk.
On the Austrian side, their dynamic midfield with Laimer-Sabitzer-Baumgartner played extremely well in the match against Poland. With the only change in the attack coming from the center forward position Arnautovic, coach Rangnick has more attacking options and this framework will be used in the next match.
Expected lineup Netherlands vs Austria
Netherlands:Verbruggen; Ake, van Dijk, de Vriji, Dumfries; Rejinders, Schouten, Simons; Gakpo, Frimpong, Depay.
Shirt:Pentz; Posch, Trauner, Lienhart, Mwene; Seiwald, Laimer, Baumgartner, Sabitzer, Grilitsch; Arnautovic.
Notable stars Netherlands vs France
Xavi Simons:Simons is the most consistent player in the Dutch attack, averaging 7.4 points per game. This is the type of striker that any defense must fear because of his great speed and smart movement. In the match against France, Leipzig's new player played outstandingly and had a goal disallowed.
Marko Arnautovic:Arnautovic was benched for the first game and when he came on against Poland he scored. The experience of the striker, who has played in the Premier League and recently won Serie A with Inter Milan, will no doubt be key in the upcoming match.
Form and head to head Netherlands vs Austria
With superiority in class, force and quality of play, it is not difficult to understand why the Dutch team has won all 5 recent meetings with Austria, most of them were easy victories with a difference in score. However, the performance of the two teams in the last 5 matches is similar with 3 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss.

Expert opinion
The Netherlands are superior in both strength and class. Coach Koeman's team has more stars and has always known how to defeat its opponents in meetings over the past two decades. If they play without too much calculation, the Netherlands can still defeat their opponents.
The Netherlands currently has a defense with many good players such as Van dijk, Ake, De Vriji, Dumfries. The solidity of this quartet will be too big a challenge for the strikers on the Austrian team. In addition, coach Rangnick is not likely to focus too much on attacking in the match against the Netherlands, so this match will hardly have many goals.
Prediction: Netherlands vs Austria: 1-0
