Prediction: 5-0
Gibraltar
Netherlands and Gibraltar face each other at De Kuip in a David-vs-Goliath clash. The Oranje experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-0 loss to France, but they are seen as hot favourites to beat the minnows on home soil. All Cody Gakpo, Matthijs de Ligt, Joey Veerman, Sven Botman, and Bart Verbruggen should miss out through illness, while Denzel Dumfries is back from suspension. Even though both Frenkie de Jong and Steven Bergwijn are sidelined with injuries, home win should be considered as Ronald Koeman has a number of high-profile footballers to choose from.
Both Davy Klaassen and Donyell Malen are pushing for recalls to the starting XI. The visitors, on the other hand, suffered a 3-0 loss to Greece in the opening match of their EURO 2024 qualifying campaign, and they face yet another uphill task in Rotterdam. In their last meeting in a competitive match Netherlands hammered Gibraltar 6-0, and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Memphis Depay):
Memphis Depay is a Dutch winger who started his professional career at PSV Eindhoven. During the 2014/2015 Eredivisie campaign the pacey footballer was on Manchester United’s radar and on June 12, 2015 the Premier League club confirmed the signing of the Dutchman. Many people expected that he would impress in the 2015/2016 Premier League season, but the former PSV ace played below expectations for the Red Devils, scoring only two goals (one assist) during the season.
After playing only for league games for Man Utd in the 2016/2017 season, Memphis Depay was sold to Olympique Lyon on January 20, 2017. Depay signed a four-and-a-half year deal with les Gones for a fee of around £16 million. The Dutch winger was producing fine performances for Lyon in the 2016/2017 season; he scored five goals for the club, while providing eight assists for his teammates.
Memphis Depay made his senior debut for Netherlands on October 15, 2013 in a 2-0 win over Turkey. Depay did well to win the 2011 European Championship with Netherlands U17 team.
Highlighted Team (Gibraltar):
Gibraltar played their first unofficial match against Jersey in the 1993 Island Games. The Gibraltarians suffered a 2-1 loss to Jersey, but they did well to hold Slovakia to a goalless draw in their first official international match. Gibraltar participated in the 2016 World Cup qualifiers and they were drawn in Group D alongside Germany, Poland, Georgia, Republic of Ireland and Scotland.
They failed to impress on their debut in the World Cup qualifiers and it has to be noted that the minnows suffered a loss in each of their ten group games (goal difference 2:56). Gibraltar recorded their first ever win against Malta on April 6, 2014 and that is considered the team’s biggest success.
Danny Higginbotham, who played for the likes of Manchester United, Southampton, Sunderland, Stoke City and Sheffield United during his professional career, has three caps for Gibraltar national football team and he is considered the greatest player who whore Gibraltar shirt. The Gibraltarians play their home games at Estadio Algarve, speaking of qualifying matches.
