The Czechs have no major injury concerns heading into the game.
Netherlands vs Czech Republic Preview
While question marks remain over the Netherlands’ defensive solidity, their firepower up-front remains impressive.
De Boer’s men have scored at least twice in each of their last 10 matches in all competitions and their eight goals at Euro 2020 have come from four different players, with Gini Wijnaldum responsible for three strikes.
The Netherlands should be be confident of continuing their strong scoring form this weekend considering Czech Republic have kept just one clean sheet in their last eight matches, and conceded four goals against Italy in a friendly earlier this month as well as twice against Estonia in a World Cup qualifier in March.
Netherlands vs Czech Republic Tips and Predictions
The Dutch are priced at 4/5 (1.80) to score over 1.5 goals which looks like an excellent option, given their record in the final third this year and in Euro 2020.
