Netherlands vs. USWNT Prediction & Pick
The United States played far from its best game on Friday and still emerged victorious by a score of 3-0 and held Vietnam to zero shots. It goes to show how this roster of stars stacks up against the competition. There’s a reason the USA remains the favorite to hoist the trophy when all is said and done.
The Netherlands is a much better opponent than Vietnam, but fading the United States is not the way to go. Team USA is 8-1-1 (W-D-L) in its last 10 Women’s World Cup group stage matches and 4-1-0 (W-D-L) in its last five matches against the Netherlands. That is the kind of dominance worth backing.
I’ll trust manager Vlatko Andonovski’s team to pull away with a goal in the second half on Wednesday.
FINAL SCORE PREDICTION: USA 2, Netherlands 0
USWNT vs. Netherlands Best Bet
Scoring has been hard to come by at the World Cup as nine of the first 15 group stage matches have resulted in less than three total goals put on the board. The United States and the Netherlands each earned shutout wins to kick things off, which speaks to the talent found on the defensive end of the pitch. Three of the last five head-to-head matchups have seen less than three goals scored as well.
