The Netherlands will be confident of securing a safe passage to the round of 16 on Tuesday afternoon when they face Qatar in their final group game.

Qatar have proved to be limited opposition, and their World Cup elimination has already been confirmed.

For the Netherlands, they may have been disappointed to have been held to a draw in their previous group outing against Ecuador, with Louis van Gaal bemoaning his side’s ability to retain possession of the ball effectively, but they are in control of their destiny.

In many ways, this may feel like a bit of a dead rubber, but how will this one unfold?

Netherlands vs Qatar Predictions

Ahead of kick-off, we have scoured the markets and picked out a couple of tips for you to consider adding to your Netherlands vs Qatar picks.

Netherlands to Put Qatar to the Sword

While the 1-1 draw against Ecuador was rather uninspiring, the Netherlands are top of Group A by virtue of goal difference. Van Gaal’s men will go through if they avoid defeat.

And history is on their side. Apart from in 1978 versus Scotland, the Netherlands have never failed to lose their final World Cup group game.

Qatar, meanwhile, are hoping to avoid the ignominy of defeat in all three group games, and they became the first host nation to exit after two group games.

Felix Sanchez’s men will be looking for a morale booster, and while the Netherlands have ridden their luck at times, they should coast through.

If Van Gaal’s men acquit themselves well, look after the ball properly, and attack with verve, then they should overpower Qatar.

They could well fire home a few goals and I fancy the Oranje to win at a canter. A 4-0 scoreline would not be beyond the realms of possibility, which is trading at 9/1 odds in the Correct Score markets at online sportsbooks.

Cody Gakpo to Wrap Up Proceedings

So far, Cody Gakpo has turned a lot of heads and he has been in mesmerizing form at this year’s renewal of the World Cup.

He has been influential, netting two goals, and his left-footed strike against Ecuador was something to behold when he dispatched a shot into the top corner of the net after just five minutes.

Gakpo’s record for the quickest goal at the World Cup may have been swiftly usurped by Canada’s Alphonso Davies, but Gakpo is a livewire, and he will be a handful for Qatar.

And Gakpo could well enhance his reputation further with another goalscoring contribution against Qatar. This season, Gakpo has had 34 goal involvements in 28 games, so more often than not, he makes an impact.

The 23-year-old could well emulate Dennis Bergkamp (1994) and Wesley Sneijder (2010) by scoring in three consecutive World Cup appearances for the Dutch. If you like the goalscorer markets, then Gakpo is available at an eye-catching 11/2 odds to round off the scoring by bagging last.
