Netherlands vs Hungary Prediction

Netherlands Form

In the previous three games, Netherlands drew 2-2 with Germany, lost 1-1 against Hungary and 1-0 against Germany. Netherlands claimed a modest two wins in their past six internationals. They also drew two and lost two, scored 11 goals and conceded nine.

Hungary Form

Hungary look solid currently after going three matches unbeaten, which started by drawing 0-0 against Bosnia-Herzegovina. They followed that up by sharing the spoils with Netherlands in a 1-1 draw, before taking out Bosnia-Herzegovina in a 0-2 win. Hungary won twice, while also recording two draws and two defeats in their last six internationals. The scoreline from these matches says eight goals conceded and four scored.

Netherlands delivered some rather mediocre results so far in the Nations League A. As they enter their penultimate group match on five points, they know they most likely need three points to stay in the race for the next round. Hungary enter the fifth Nations League A group match on five points and need to go all-in chasing a win. A draw might be enough to keep them in the race for the next round, but are they willing to depend that much on Lady Luck? To be in with a sound chance of seeing the next round, a win is needed for Hungary.

Anything but a home win for Netherlands will be a massive surprise, and with goals flowing freely Hungary could be in for a hammering.

Netherlands conceded a goal in their 6 most recent matches.
