Netherland will square off with Denmark in one of the most intriguing international friendlies this Saturday night at Amsterdam ArenA with kickoff at 22:45.
Both Netherlands and Denmark have already booked their places in this year’s FIFA World Cup finals in Qatar, with the Dutch finishing at the top of the Group G with 23 points from 10 matches, while the Danes claimed 27 points from 10 matches in Group F to finish at the top, four points above Scotland.
Therefore there is little to fight for in this match, but considering the squads and the teams’ forms we expect an intriguing fixture here. Netherlands have gone unbeaten in their last seven matches claiming five victories and two draws in the run and are coming off a 2-0 win over Norway.
They will therefore be looking to pick up where they left off as they prepare for the coming UEFA Nations League campaign in June.
Meanwhile Denmark have only lost one of their last seven matches, falling to a 2-0 defeat to Scotland in their final Group F fixture, which ended their six-match winning streak. They will therefore be looking to bounce back to winning ways as they look to build momentum ahead of the upcoming continental Nations League.
