The Netherlands and Montenegro both failed to register wins on Match Day 4 of the World Cup qualifiers in Europe. The two face off in Round 5 and each one of them has the chance to go top of Group G as Netherlands hosts their first ever meeting. The Dutch had to come from behind in Norway to register a point in their 1-1 draw and have seven points, in second place, same to Montenegro, who are third. Davy Klaassen scored the Netherlands’ equalizer after Erling Haaland’s opener and they will be hoping for a better outcome at home. The Dutch go to the home game the stronger side here, with six wins in their last nine matches and they have scored two or more in three of the last five matches. They have four straight wins in World Cup qualification matches at home, and in that run, they’ve scored two or more goals and kept three clean sheets.

Montenegro are also coming from a draw, an impressive fightback to claw themselves from 2-0 down after 30 minutes to draw 2-2 with Turkey. They are still in search of their first win in the group since beating bottom placed Gibraltar in the first round of matches. Montenegro are winless in their last four matches, losing two and drawing as many. They have one clean sheet in their last five games and have conceded five goals in just their last two matches. The two goals scored against Turkey marked the fourth time in five World Cup qualification matches that they’ve scored two or more goals. In World Cup qualifiers, Montenegro have no clean sheet in five, with both sides scoring in four which also ended in over 2.5 goals. Each of their five away matches in World Cup qualifiers also ended in over 2.5 goals, with both teams scoring in four.
