Latest Wales Women vs Netherlands Women team information
The biggest piece of good news for the Wales women's team ahead of their opening match at EURO 2025 is the return of defensive leader Sophie Ingle. The former Chelsea centre-back has fully recovered from an ACL injury that kept her out of the entire 2024/25 season. Ingle's presence provides an important mental support for the Welsh defence, especially when they have to face very strong opponents such as the Netherlands, France and England in Group D. On the other side of the front line, the Netherlands also welcomes the remarkable return of key striker Vivianne Miedema. After a long time out due to injury, the Man City striker is now ready to join and aim for the milestone of 100 international goals - she currently has 99 goals for the national team. With a near-full squad, coach Andries Jonker has all the players to deploy his signature attacking style.

Latest Wales Women vs Netherlands Women football prediction
The match between Wales Women and Netherlands Women in Group D of EURO 2025 is a clash between a rookie and a candidate for the championship of the tournament. For their first time in the continental playground, Wales Women wrote a fairy tale when they overcame Slovakia and the Republic of Ireland in the play-off series. However, their dream is facing a harsh reality when they have to face top names such as France, England and especially the Netherlands - their opponents in the opening match.

Although Wales played bravely in the qualifying round, their strength and experience are still big questions in the continental arena. The team's recent form has not been very positive, winning only 1 of the last 5 matches and suffering heavy defeats against Italy and Denmark. On the contrary, the Netherlands are having a good start with a 2-1 victory over Finland thanks to a double from Vivianne Miedema - who is expected to be the highlight of this year's campaign.
In terms of head-to-head, the Netherlands are completely superior with 4 wins in all 4 previous meetings with Wales, including a devastating 5-0 victory in 2017. In addition, Oranje also had an impressive start at EURO 2017 and 2022 and it is very likely that a similar scenario will repeat itself against an inexperienced Wales. With superior force, diverse attacking ability and the goal of creating a goal difference advantage before meeting France and England, the Netherlands are expected to enter the game proactively, apply continuous pressure and quickly decide the match situation.
