Netherlands vs Italy Prediction, Team News, & Form Analysis
Netherlands:
Netherlands will not stand to gain a lot other than pride in the third-place play-off. Ronald Koeman has suffered a string of defeats since taking over from Louis van Gaal and a victory in his upcoming match would do the team a world of good even if it does not provide titles. Matthijs de Ligt will not be available for the finals after picking up a calf injury.
Predicted Line-Up:
Bijlow, Ake, Botman, Dijk, Dumfries, Jong, Wijnaldum, Roon, Bergwijn, Gakpo, Simons
Italy:
Italy suffered a narrow loss against Spain and the team are looking to bounce back immediately. There were decent chances for the Italians but there could be changes in the starting line-up, as Roberto Mancini could go for a new set of players. Italy were not great in possession against Spain and things are unlikely to improve against Italy as well.
Predicted Line-Up:
Donnarumma, Dimarco, Bastoni, Acerbi, Lorenzo, Verratti, Jorginho, Barella, Pellegrini, Retegui, Chiesa
Player to Watch: Xavi Simons
Xavi Simons had a strong season with PSV and he was able to come up with 19 goals in 34 games. Crucially, he was able to end the season on a strong note for PSV while also coming with a decent performance in the recent game against Croatia.
