Netherlands take on the USA in the round of 1/8-finals of FIFA World Cup 2022. The match will be played on Saturday, December 3rd at Khalifa International Stadium (Doha).
The Dutch team under mentorship of Louis van Gaal is the fair favorite for the match against the US team. Oranje confidently reached the playoffs of the 2022 World Cup from the first place in the group, while the Stars and Stripes crawled out there only due to the hardest victory over Iran. The Netherlands team confidently took first place in Group A, having dealt with the hosts of the World Cup and the Senegal team, as well as drawing with the South Korean team. Gradually, the Dutch will only add during the tournament. Experienced van Gaal knows his job well. One of the main discoveries of the tournament is Cody Gakpo. The 23-year-old PSV striker has scored goals in all three matches of the 2022 World Cup. Cody is in great shape and ready to show it in the upcoming match. But the most important thing is the form of the Netherlands national team, which won 7 wins and 2 draws in the last nine matches.

The US team was able to break into the playoffs only in the final match of the group stage of the 2022 World Cup. The "Stars and Stripes" in a difficult battle turned out to be stronger than the Iranian team, beating the Asians with a score of 1:0. So far, in general, the US team looks too raw at the World Cup in Qatar. With all the talent of young players, they definitely lack teamwork. Success in the match against the team of Iran interrupted the US team's five-game streak without a win. In terms of playing conditions, the Stars and Stripes are definitely inferior to the Netherlands, as well as in terms of the class of teams.
The teams of the Netherlands and the USA faced each other four times, always in friendly matches. In an official battle, the clubs will meet for the first time in Qatar. So far, the Dutch have won 3 out of 4 matches. Up to 1.94 are offered by bookmakers for the success of the Netherlands national team in the upcoming game of the 1/8 finals of the 2022 World Cup. The US team goes as underdog for 4.42 with 3.50 for a draw. Without a doubt, the wards of Louis van Gaal will have to surpass the US team in regular time, converting their superiority in the class.
Prediction for the match: Netherlands to win.
