Netherlands drew 2–2 with Turkey in Matchday 1 in a match they should have won. Memphis Depay scored twice but defensive lapses at the back cost them two points. Ronald Koeman’s side have the individual quality to win this group but need to tighten up. Van Dijk’s leadership will be critical against Sweden’s direct game.
Sweden put five past Tunisia in Matchday 1 — a dominant display that confirmed they are genuine Group F contenders. Alexander Isak was unplayable, scoring twice and creating two more. Their 4-4-2 has pace all over the pitch and Victor Nilsson Lindelöf’s organisation at centre-back makes them difficult to break down.
Netherlands have the quality edge but Sweden arrive in excellent form. Isak is too good to be kept out for 90 minutes and van Dijk’s backline has already shown it can be breached. Netherlands win, both teams score — that’s the market.
