North Macedonia v Netherlands Betting Tips [21 June 2021]

The Netherlands go into this final Group C game against North Macedonia having already won the group. They have won both of their games, whereas their opponents have been defeated twice. The Dutch side began their campaign with a 3-2 win over Ukraine who are now in second place, ahead of Austria on goal difference. That should have been a better win as they led the match 2-0 in the second half and ended up needing a late goal to get the victory.  It was a bit easier against Austria in their second match with a goal in each half seeing them to a 2-0 win over Austria. That was their fourth clean sheet in their last six matches. What we need to know about the Dutch side is how will they get on when having to play away from home. Their match in the last sixteen will be in Budpapest and only two of their last six away fixtures have been won, one being in Gibraltar. What will be interesting in this game is the line-up they field. Will they make several changes with the group being won?

It's been a bit of a nightmare so far for North Macedonia. Both of their matches have ended in defeat with five goals conceded. That's left them with no points and can't finish in the top three so are out of the tournament. Their campaign began with a 3-1 loss to Austria, though it was 1-1 with 12 minutes remaining. Another defeat followed when being beaten 2-1 by Ukraine. They are letting in too many goals and up against a high-scoring Netherlands a third loss looks likely here. Three of their five goals conceded were scored in the first half. Back the Netherlands to win with them ahead at both half and full time. Leave placing your bet til the teams have been named to determine the size of your stake. It's also possible that North Macedonia will make changes now they can't make it into the last sixteen.
