The Dutch national team continues its preparations for Euro 2024, where they will certainly be among the contenders for the highest places. The Orange traditionally play well at major international tournaments. They almost always make the playoffs, and in the past decade they have twice won medals at world championships. Qualification for Euro 2024 turned out very well for the Oranges, they finished second in the standings and got a ticket to Germany. After that, they started to play friendlies. In March, they defeated the Scots - 4:0, but lost to the Germans - 1:2. In June, they also played once, being stronger than the Canadians - 4:0.

Iceland's star moment came last decade, when for the first time in the country's history they made it to the continental championship and then to the world championship. Moreover, at Euro 2016 they even managed to reach the quarter-finals, which is a phenomenal achievement for such a modest nation. But after these two tournaments, the Vikings went downhill. The qualifying tournament for Euro 2024 also turned out badly for them, as they took only the fourth place in the standings. By comparison, the Luxembourg national team scored seven points more. There was a chance for the Icelanders to travel to Germany via the UEFA Nations League. They reached the final in the knockout stages, but lost to the Ukrainians 1:2. In June, they played a friendly match against England and sensationally won 1:0.

The Dutch national team is approaching the start of Euro 2024 in excellent condition. The Orange won five of the last six games, and the first friendly against the Canadians in June ended in a 4:0 victory. They are unqualified favourites in the upcoming clash with Iceland. The last two face-to-face meetings remained behind the Vikings, but it was in qualifying for Euro 2016, that is a long time ago. Since then, the Oranges have improved, the Icelanders have seriously slowed down, so now we can bet on the victory of the Netherlands.
