Netherlands vs Germany Prediction and Betting Tips | September 10th 2024

Netherlands will welcome Germany to Johan Cruijff ArenA (Amsterdam Arena) in the UEFA Nations League on Tuesday. Both teams enjoyed a winning start to their campaign, scoring five goals each.

The hosts registered a comfortable 5-2 home win over Bosnia and Herzegovina last week thanks to goals from Joshua Zirkzee, Tijjani Reijnders, Cody Gakpo, Wout Weghorst and Xavi Simons. They conceded a goal in either half.

The visitors overcame Hungary 5-0 at home in their campaign opener. Interestingly, all five goals were also scored by different players. Niclas Füllkrug scored in the first half while Jamal Musiala, Florian Wirtz and Kai Havertz scored in the second half.

Aleksandar Pavlović, a second-half substitute, opened his goalscoring account for the senior side in the 77th minute.

Netherlands vs Germany Prediction

Oranje bounced back well from their bitter loss to England in the UEFA Euro 2024 semifinals with a thumping 5-2 win last week and will look to continue that momentum here. They scored five goals for the first time this year but conceded at least two goals for the third time in five games.

Ronald Koeman had to intervene in a training clash between Jurrien Timber and Wout Weghorst on Sunday. Both players started from the bench against Bosnia and might remain on the bench here. Matthijs de Ligt was at fault for both goals against Bosnia and might be dropped to the bench.

Die Mannschaft registered the biggest win in the Nations League first matchday and will look to build on that form. It was just their second win in the competition since 2020. They are winless in their last four away games in the competition and might struggle here. Julian Nagelsmann is expected to field a similar starting XI from last week.

Considering the current form of the two teams, a high-scoring draw will likely ensue.
