It\u2019s almost certain that, along with France, the Netherlands and Austria will get to the knockout phase. The only question is from which position on the Group D table? Obviously, the No. 1 spot is the most cherished one, as the team that wins it will get to play against the third-placed team from Group A, B, or C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Right now, the Netherlands is occupying that spot, but to stay there, the Dutch would probably need a big win over Ralf Rangnick\u2019s Austria. We say \u201cprobably\u201d because it also depends on the outcome of the other Group D game, which we\u2019ve analyzed in our France vs. Poland preview<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Both teams have been great since the start of the Euros. Despite losing 1:0 to France in the first round, the Austrians did very well in that game. Then, in the second round, they obliterated Poland 3:1 showing that they\u2019ve got plenty of weapons in the arsenal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Dutch beat the Poles 2:1 in the opening round, then went on to play 0:0 with France. It was a goalless draw, but it wasn\u2019t a snooze fest. In fact, we witnessed plenty of exciting chances on both ends, with the even scoring a goal that was ruled out after a VAR intervention.<\/p>\n\n\n\nBefore Betting on Netherlands vs. Austria<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
