USA vs Netherlands Expectations
- We expect to see a US win, as the Yankees defeated the Netherlands 2-0 in the 2019 Women’s World Cup final.
- One or perhaps two goals is the most we can expect, as the Dutch did brilliantly to keep Portugal quiet in their opening game.
- We don’t think both teams will score. After all, Vietnam couldn’t make a single shot at target against the US Side.

As you can see from the USA vs Netherlands odds above, it’s the US side that is considered the expected winners at -153 (59.0% win probability) ahead of this Women’s World Cup duel. The Netherlands barely have a 19.0% shot at the three points. We explained in our article already that we expect to see very few goals. Perhaps Under 2.5 Goals at -142 (58.82%) or BTTS – No at -130 (56.52%) is what we’ll see at Wellington Regional Stadium between these two sides.
USA vs Netherlands Lineups & Team News
USA
We all remember the 2019 Women’s World Cup, don’t we? The Yankees won the final versus the Netherlands with a 2-0 score in a performance to savor at Groupama Stadium. The Dutch were simply not good enough then, and we’re sure that Thursday’s brawl isn’t going to be much different. USA only got better over time, and with Morgan in the best shape of her life, we’re sure that USA will not only give the Netherlands a run for their money on the 27th, but the team will advance to the round of 16 with ease.
Predicted lineup – Naeher (GK), Fox, Ertz, Girma, Dunn, DeMelo, Sullivan, Horan, Rodman, Morgan & Smith
Netherlands
The Dutch surprised no one with their 1-0 victory over poor Portugal at the start of the FIFA Women’s World Cup this year. What was surprising was the fact that the Netherlands scored only once via defender-in-chief Stefanie van der Gragt. Sure, the Dutch seem doomed ahead of Thursday's brawl, but we still believe the European side has the required arsenal to advance to the round of 16 and ruffle a few feathers.
Predicted lineup – van Domselaar (GK), Spitse, van der Gragt, Janssen, Groenen, Pelova, Brugts, Roord, van de Donk, Martens & Beerensteyn
Player to Watch: Stefanie van der Gragt
Not only did Stefanie score the winning goal for the Netherlands against the Portuguese ladies, but the 30-year-old remained on the pitch for the entire game! She’s the heart and soul of the Netherlands’ starting XI, so it’d be quite surprising to see the coach bench her while she’s on top of her game.
We believe that defender-in-chief Stefanie van der Gragt will be the biggest obstacle the US team will have to overcome in order to record a much-needed victory on Thursday, as Stefanie did well to keep Portugal away from the goal.
