[Football- Euro 2024 Qualifiers] 10.9/ 20:45 Ireland- Netherlands
With Koeman as head coach, the Netherlands style of play is more offensive than under previous Dutch coach van Gaal. It took some games for the players to internalize and implement the new plays and strategy. Koeman achieved only one win out of his first four games. However, in his fifth and most recent game against Greece a couple of days ago, Koeman's offensive style of play came to fruition. Netherlands looked sharp and attuned. They downed Greece 3-0 in the first half. It is expected that Koeman fields the same starting eleven as against the Greek national team.
Ireland's headcoach needs to do a few changes. Two defenders suffered an injury during the last game against France. They will not be able to play. This makes the Irish left side on defense particularly vulnerable. As a consequence thereof, Dutch right wing striker Simons is an appealing value prop @ +155 for scoring or assisting. Simons as goalscorer @ +275 could also be worth considering.
Beyond that, the way Ireland's national team plays is somewhat similar to the Greek one. The way Netherlands play is somewhat similar to France's one. In their last game, Netherlands won 3-0 against Greece and Ireland lost 2-0 to France. Making the game against Ireland a favorable matchup for the Dutch national team which is eventually aligned with Koeman's offensive strategy.
