Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson expects a comfortable Dutch win.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Netherlands to win and both teams to score | 7/4 (bet365) | The Netherlands beat Serbia 2-1 in Belgrade last time out and return to Eindhoven as heavy favourites against a side in disarray, bottom of the group with four straight defeats. Serbia remain without the injured Dusan Vlahovic and Aleksandar Mitrovic, but they have shown they can find a goal, and the Dutch have not been watertight at the back under Xavi Hernandez. Backing a home win with both teams scoring reflects Dutch dominance and a likely Serbia consolation. |
| Mexx Meerdink to score anytime | 10/11 (bet365) | Mexx Meerdink scored both goals in the Netherlands’ 2-1 win in Belgrade and has emerged as the standout attacker of the early Xavi era. With Cody Gakpo injured, Meerdink leads the line against a Serbia defence that has conceded six times in three games. At home and dominant, the Dutch should create plenty, making Meerdink a strong candidate to score again in Eindhoven. |
