Netherlands vs Scotland Predictions & Betting Tips

Defensive injuries in both squads sets us up for an entertaining clash in Amsterdam on Friday night. De Vrij and Hartman have both left the Netherlands training camp, and Sven Botman has also been ruled out with a long-term ACL injury ahead of their clash with Scotland. The Tartan Army also had Grant Hanley and Scott McKenna withdraw, leaving both sides with weakened backlines. The Netherlands have conceded in seven of their last eleven home games, including two against Wales, Poland, and Denmark. They also have a selection of poor shot-stopping goalkeepers. Verbruggen has been in and out of the Brighton side all season and ranks in the bottom 7% on post-shot expected goals per shot on target, which measures how likely a keeper is to save a shot on target. Flekken has conceded 52 goals from 44.80 expected and ranks in the bottom 20% in save percentage. Scotland have scored in seven of their previous ten away games, including one in France. They have allowed an average of 1.77 xG away from home and conceded two or more in six, so they are vulnerable against a good attacking Dutch side. Defensive injuries to already susceptible defences makes 4/5 on over 2.5 good value.
