Arriving at Euro 2024 on a five-match winning streak, Poland will play their fifth straight major tournament this summer. They hope to advance past the knockout phase despite being in a challenging group-stage draw. However, that hope has been dashed by Robert Lewandowski suffering a recent injury, which leaves the team without a good luck charm for Sunday’s opener.
The Poles finished third in a weak qualifying group, but defeated Estonia and Wales. They beat Estonia in a dramatic penalty shootout, to scale through the playoffs and into a draw for the finals. This month, Poland played two warm-up friendlies, after defeating Ukraine 3-1, they also won Turkey 2-1 on Monday. Five different players scored, providing hope in Lewandowksi’s absence.
Betting On Netherlands
- 1XBet Spread: -1
- 1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5
- 1XBet Moneyline: 1.593
Now competing in their 11th European Championship, the Netherlands won the trophy back in 1988, when Marco van Basten delivered a remarkable volley to lead them to the final. Since then, only the Germans have often made it to the semi-finals. But, the Netherlands have not reached the final four in 20 years and they want to break that record.
Fighting favourites France and improving Austria in Group D, the Oranje’s first challenge would be to advance to the knockout rounds successfully. After winning Canada 4-0 last week, they destroyed Iceland by the same scoreline on Monday and won four of their last six matches. The only teams left standing were France and Germany. The Dutch team will be confident entering tomorrow’s match.
MatchPlug Prediction For Poland VS Netherlands
Both Poland and Netherlands have been stalled by injuries, but they cannot afford any form of self-pity, given the calibre of teams in their Group D. Without a prominent striker, the Netherlands still have potential scorers in their squad, so they should exploit Poland’s attacking woes for this opener.
Final Prediction: Poland Moneyline.
