Netherlands vs Austria head-to-head statistics
The Netherlands have an excellent recent record against Austria, winning each of the last six meetings. Austria hasn’t beaten the Netherlands since 1984.
Netherlands vs Austria preview
This match will take place on 06/25/2024 at Olympiastadion (Berlin), with kickoff at 12:00 PM EST.
The Netherlands have made a solid start at Euro 2024, earning four points from their first two games. They could (and should) be sitting on six points if not for a controversially disallowed goal. It’s fair to say that English officials and VAR have had a rocky relationship, to put it mildly.
Nonetheless, the Dutch are well positioned to qualify and will aim to do so as group winners with a victory over Austria, which
is entirely plausible.
Austria, after losing to France in their opening match, bounced back with a crucial win over Poland on match day two.
Following a decent performance against France, Ralf Rangnick’s team entered their second game with confidence, scoring early through an unlikely source, Gernot Trauner, who netted his first international goal since 2020. Poland equalized after half an hour, but Austria regained the lead with a well-taken goal by Christoph Baumgartner, followed by a penalty from veteran Marko Arnautovic.
Austria arguably defeated Poland more convincingly than the Netherlands did, so they have every reason to feel confident ahead of this clash.
Netherlands vs Austria betting picks
As we approach this decisive Group D match, one bet stands out from a value perspective.
Over 3.0 Goals Asian Handicap
The Dutch could theoretically play for a point, which would see them through, potentially as group winners, depending on the outcome of the France vs. Poland match. However, that’s not their typical style. This Netherlands team is built to attack and should feel capable of exploiting an Austrian defense that has yet to keep a clean sheet in Germany.
Moreover, Austria has shown no fear since their opening match against France, while the Dutch defense has not been particularly solid, suggesting that Rangnick’s team will also look to attack.
Considering this, coupled with the offensive talent on both sides, ‘Over 3.0 Goals Asian Handicap’ looks slightly overpriced at odds of +137 with bet365.
Historically, final group games tend to be more open, and the playing styles of both teams suggest we’ll see plenty of goals. In fact, at least three goals have been scored in all but one of the Netherlands' last seven games, with more than three goals in four of those.
