Liverpool striker Cody Gakpo who has scored in four of his last eight international appearances is one of the first names in Ronald Koeman’s team-sheet. He is expected to play a starring role for the Oranje in the Nations League.

Germany vs Netherlands Prediction

Germany’s national football team has made a great start to their Nations League campaign, and are currently leading the group table following their 2-1 win over Bosnia on Friday night. They were held to a 2-2 draw by the Netherlands in the last meeting back in September and have won three of their previous five meetings against the Dutch. Die Mannschaft’s superior defence has been key to their recent form in European competitions.

Netherlands’s national football team who are currently second on the group table will not have a worse chance to return to winning ways than this tie. The visiting side had an impressive run at Euro 2024 this summer and it will be a closely contested affair on Monday night.

Predicted Score: Germany 2-1 Netherlands
