Florin Niță GK vs. Bart Verbruggen GK
Florin Niță, Romania’s rock at the back, has shown treating solidity and possesses a rather good save rate, thirteen saves though has conversely let in three goals in the tournament. How Fondrik can stop Dutch who have been quite goal-shy will be key to Romania’s chances.
At the other end, Bart Verbruggen has also been equally effective for Netherlands having made a clean sheet and having 3 goals against him to his name. He will have to excel when matched with Romanian attackers, who have been anything but prolific in front of the goal.
The Attacking Edge of the Netherlands: Oranje Onslaught: Netherlands’ Top Scorers
Perhaps, the strongest weapon in the Netherlands team has been the rampaging offensive line, namely Cody Gakpo, and Memphis Depay. Gakpo, in particular, scored two goals from seven attempts and Depay, who has played a very instrumental role supporting the team even with his single goal average thus the Netherlands has been averaging 2.4 goals in their last five games. Now it’s up to the Romanians to use the virtues to break a defense they have conceded 1.5 goals per game.
Romania’s Struggle and Glimmer of Hope: Counter-Strike: Romania’s Offensive Stand
The rankings are generally somewhat in favor of the Romanians, even though some stats of Romanian football are a tad worse; Razvan Marin and Nicolae Stanciu emerged as the two shining stars in this case. Their leading scorers Marin, with two goals, and Stanciu in the other had to seize any silly mistake by the Dutch defenders. Their task however is colossal but certainly achievable if they want to focus on set pieces as well as the counter attacks.
Romania Betting Trends
Romania’s recent form hardly instills a lot of confidence in them, falling short of having won a single match in their last 5 matches against the Netherlands and hardly able to get victories at home. That is an aspect that they have been known to surrender more goals than they gain hence it will be a major aspect to cover if they are to overcome the statistics.
Netherlands Betting Trends
On the other hand, Netherlands have a strong statistical record of four victories in the last five match-ups against Romania and sound away record. They are among the most possessed defensive formations that when they incorporate a robust attack make them very hard to deny ground.
Romania vs. Netherlands Betting Picks
Pointing out at the results of the previous games, the current performance, and the prognosis results it can be stated that Netherlands are the favorites of this match. This should be enough to tackle a Romanian side that has not found its form and fluency.
Anyone searching for the best betting sites online should make a bet on the Netherlands to win with the spread. This is exactly why odds for players like Cody Gakpo for anytime goalscorer prop bets could also be deemed valuable at the present time. Based on previous occasions, this match should continue to display the above features where the Netherlands dominated the game and Romania could barely penetrate a solid Dutch defense line.
Score Prediction: Netherlands 2, Romania 0
