Greece vs Netherlands prediction
Greece will try to make a late rally to try and snatch the runners-up position when they welcome Netherlands on Monday evening in their Group B return match. They started this campaign on a high with back-to-back wins against Gibraltar and Ireland. But they were quickly brought back to reality when the rubber met the road with back-to-back losses to France and Netherlands before they bounced back with a 5-0 trashing of the group’s whipping boys Gibraltar and an impressive 2-0 win at Ireland last time out. That win elevated Guy Poyet’s side to 2nd place in the group, with 12 points, 3 clear of 3rd placed Netherlands but having played a match more than them.
Netherlands have found their footing after a slow start to the qualifiers and are now angling either at direct qualification or at the very least a runners-up spot in Group B. They have won three games on the trot, including a convincing 3-0 win over Greece when they hosted them back in September. They however couldn’t replicate that form against France in midweek as they lost to them for the second time and now they have their work cut out if their hopes of a runners-up place are to hold. Coach Koeman is well aware of the massive expectations of the Oranje army and he will certainly be willing his charges to finish off the job here.
With both teams eager to get going early here and settle into the game, we fancy an end-to-end encounter that could lead to goals coming in either way. There have been showers of goals whenever these teams meet and this game is likely to maintain this trend given what is at stake. As such we are going for at least 3 to be scored here as our main Greece vs Netherlands prediction.

Prediction 2: Netherlands to Score in Both Halves
Netherlands have scored in both halves in 2 of their last group games. They have a balanced attack in the starting lineup and some potent options off the bench at the disposal of Koeman. We expect him to be measured in his approach here as he tries to hold onto what is at hand already as opposed to throwing caution to the wind and losing it all. Oranje dominated the reverse game and although the home team will have something to say here, they still have enough quality to repeat the performance here. We fancy them to do just that here and we backing Netherlands to score in Both Halves in this match with very good odds for this option available at Paripesa.

Prediction 3: Greece Over 2.5 Bookings
It’s a do-or-die affair for the home side here. They are desperate to get the win that will not only upset the odds in this game but also give them a chance to execute a coup and dislodge the Dutch from the runners-up spot.
We fancy Greece to play with desperation here. They will look to tackle aggressively especially so when things will not go their way or when time is running out to make any meaningful change to the outcome. They picked up 4 bookings last time these teams met and there is every likelihood of that happening again. In light of this, we feel there is great value in backing Greece to pick up at least 3 bookings in this game as our final Greece vs Netherlands prediction
