Poland vs Netherlands Prediction

The Dutch national team qualified for the final stage without any significant problems. They won 6 out of their 8 games, only failing to beat France. No surprise that betting sites believe that the Dutch are the favourites.

Poland performed poorly in their qualifying group, along with quite average sides. They lost 3 of their 8 games. These were the matches against Albania, Czech Republic and even Moldova, occupying 153^rd place in the FIFA rankings. Besides, Poland have quite a poor record for the European Championships. In 2021, they lost 2 of their 3 games in the group stage (against Sweden and Slovakia).

The head-to-head games statistics proves a Dutch advantage, as the Netherlands have won 3 out of the last 4 official games they have played against Poland.

Our prediction is Netherlands to win at .
