The Netherlands enter in this game as favourites and the bookies see them far ahead of their opponents today. Hungary made a very bad start of this Nation League campaign. Marco Rossi's team were beaten 0-5 away by Germany in their first game and could only manage a goalless 0-0 draw at home against huge underdogs Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was the first time in 11 home matches that Hungary failed to score, but at least they maintained their impressive home winning streak without loss. However, they will have to put in a much better performance on Friday in Budapest against the Netherlands, against whom they have lost every time for over 4 decades. Netherlands, on the other hand, have started their campaign strongly with a 5-2 win over Bosnia and a thrilling 2-2 draw with Germany. Ronald Koeman's team will be looking to get back to winning ways as they aim to win their group for the third time in four seasons. After all, Netherlands suffered only two defeats in their last twelve away games and are hardly worried that this positive trend could suffer another setback in Hungary. Netherlands have regularly scored a lot of goals in recent matches against Hungary. |
