Netherlands vs Poland Prediction & Betting tips
The new season in the Nations League starts and the Elftal from Holland is currently less about sporting success than about who will inherit Ronald Koeman as a bond coach. Some well-known players should be in the raffle. Louis van Gaal has even got himself back into position and expressed his interest in a third term as national coach.
In the two international matches against Poland and Italy, the former assistant coach Dwight Lodeweges will initially look after the Elftal on an interim basis. With two convincing victories, he could even have good prospects of taking over the European champions from 1988 full-time. In any case, the Dutch have enough quality in their squad to win the upcoming duels.
Overall, the best bookmakers between Holland and Poland give a clear forecast of a home win. This assumption is grist because the Polish team is foregoing their captain and superstar Robert Lewandowski, who was given a few days of vacation after winning the Champions League with Bayern.
In the meantime, however, the Poles have a solid team that may not be counted among the top European leagues, but can also be a stumbling block for the top teams. However, the odds comparison of the betting base does not indicate that a tip for a Polish point win or even victory between Holland and Poland can be successful.
Holland:
The Nations League did not really get into the hearts and minds of the fans. So once again as a reminder: Holland is the runner-up in this competition after losing to Portugal in the first edition in the final. In general, however, the focus is still clearly on the European Championship in the coming year and the Nations League only serves as preparation.
If we take the last matches in the EM qualification as a basis, then the Dutch are among the favorites to win the Nations League among the bookmakers tested by the betting base. Of the last six international matches, Elftal won five and only played one draw – although still under Ronald Koeman as bond coach.
Few Dutch people are happy that the coach has left FC Barcelona. After all, there are still almost ten months to the EM, so that a new coach still has enough time to leave his handwriting behind.
On Friday Dwight Lodeweges is still responsible and he has to do without some important players. Matthijs de Ligt and Stefan de Vrij are probably the most famous players who are not part of the game. Daley Blind and Davy Pröpper are also missing. But Memphis Depay has returned to Elftal after a long injury.
Poland:
The Poles have sovereignly qualified for the EM 2021. Overall, the team is reasonably balanced, but without Robert Lewandowski the Polish team is a whole lot weaker. In numerous games, it is the Bayern attacker who makes the difference and secures the points with a significant number of goals.
It is not for nothing that the Poles have been unbeaten in five games and have won four. Lewandowski has scored five of the last nine goals. Overall, however, his quota in the national team has been significantly better over the past few years. The bottom line, however, is that the attacker in Amsterdam will be absent everywhere.
For this reason alone, the odds on an away win between Holland and Poland should hardly play a role.The balance of power is clear, and Jerzy Brzeczek will need to rehearse the worst. What happens if Robert Lewandowski is absent due to an injury?
Overall, the Poles have everything else on board that has rank and name. It is noticeable that Lewandowski’s two old Dortmund buddies, Jakub Blaszczykowski and Lukasz Piszczek, did not receive an invitation for the two international matches against Holland and Bosnia. Otherwise only Michal Pazdan is missing as a better known player.
