Why United States is a good play versus Netherlands

Even if injured star Christian Pulisic isn’t ready, the United States’ style could make things very difficult for the Netherlands.

The U.S., along with Australia and Switzerland, is one of the most patient teams at this year’s WC. The United States put on a clinic on how to force a draw versus a soccer nation facing a power in the 0-0 match against England.

The USA didn’t push when they didn’t see an opportunity and not pushing frustrated England until the very end. If the United States plays the same way on Saturday, they could force extra time and then penalty kicks. During penalty kicks, anything can happen.

Why Netherlands is a good play versus United States

Player to player, the Orange tower over Team USA. The Netherlands are loaded with top UEFA League starts like one of the best backs in soccer, Virgil van Djik.

de Jong, Depay, and Bergwijn are also great. But the real star of the Netherlands has turned out to be Gakpo. The 23-year-old PSV striker has scored 3 goals at the World Cup. Gakpo has a chance to win the Golden Boot.

Final Betting Analysis: United States vs Netherlands

With Gakpo at the top and Depay, who also has exceptional striking skills, playing underneath, it’s going to be very difficult for the U.S. to prevent the Dutch from scoring at least 1-goal in this match.

More than likely, the Dutch score 2. No doubt, the United States will make enough adjustments for a goal on their side. But van Djik and the rest of the backline won’t yield more than 1.

So when it’s all said and done, the U.S. will play a terrific match, but won’t move on to the quarterfinals. The Netherlands win this contest 2-1.
