Romania vs Netherlands Prediction & Picks - Euro

 by Edgar Jibran | in Euro Picks

The last matches in the EURO 2024 round of 16 schedule will be disputed next Tuesday, July 02nd, where the confrontation between Romania and Netherlands will be the first game of the day starting at 10:00 am Central Time, being necessary to remark that both teams had such an inconsistent performance during the group stage, so even when the bookmakers’ odds are taking Netherlands as the absolute favorites to win this match, they shouldn’t be overconfident.

In this regard, Romania has already achieved a great success during this edition, as they weren’t taken into consideration as strong contenders to qualify for these instances, being unthinkable to see them as leaders of the Group E. However, that scenario happened and ironically, that didn’t help enough to avoid strong opponents like Netherland so early in the playoffs.

Romania - Netherlands: Form Analysis

Romania’s performance has been full of duality during the group stage as they couldn’t keep the same offensive performance showed during their match against Ukraine (3-0) in which they took advantage of the errors that the Ukrainian squad committed, and that lack of efficiency is concerning during the preview of such an important confrontation against Netherlands.

On the Dutch case, they are one of the biggest disappointments of the group stages as they were completely dependent of the performance from other national teams to get into these instances after being unable to take advantage of the bad defensive level that France and Austria had during the group stage. Nonetheless, they showed a great mental and physical strength after tying the match against Austria two times before losing 2-3.

Romania & Netherlands Squad Analysis

When looking at both teams’ squads, there’s an evident difference between them as the Romanian team doesn’t have any player on the current best clubs in the world, but Marin, Stanciu and Hagi have proven their quality in the midfield, creating connections with their offensive line, but most importantly, being able to work closely with the defenders to avoid gifting dangerous opportunities for their opponents.

Meanwhile, Netherlands’ case could be compared with England, because even when they have world class players in their team, the expected functionality from them isn’t being reflected yet, so most of the Dutch fans are really disappointed and frustrated with the head coach, Ronald Koeman, who has showed to be very unflexible on giving more offensive freedom to players like Aké, Gakpo, Simons and Dumfries.

Romania - Netherlands Key Points

  1. Romania has scored more than 1 goal in only one out of their last five disputed matches, streak that must be concerning for the head coach.
  2. Netherlands proved to be very superior to their group opponents, dominating the possession and the generation of offensive plays, but showing a weak defensive line against Poland and Austria.
  3. Romania has received goal first in 5 out of their last 10 disputed matches, situation that is clearly showing the defensive issues that the Romanian squad has.

Our Romania vs Netherlands Prediction

To conclude, this matchup is going to be a very interesting challenge for Romania, but it’s a fact that if they keep playing on the same way they did against Belgium and Slovakia, their chances of qualifying for the quarterfinals will be practically null against one of the most talented national teams as Netherlands, so the pick for Romania – Netherlands is: Netherlands Win and Over 2.5 Goals!

Prediction:

Netherlands Win and Over 2.5 Goals

Romania vs Netherlands - Other Interesting Picks

Under 0.5 Goals By Romania

The offensive performance displayed by the Romanians during their last 2 games of the group stagers was a real shame, so against a very solid defensive the most likely scenario is that they will be unable to have many chances to score.

Over 2.5 Cards for Romania

As this match most likely will be the last for Romania in this competition, the pressure could turn into frustration if they're unable to compete during the first 60 minutes of the match, so covering the 2.5 cards spread is almost a fact.
