It’s Match day 3 in Group D and with three teams contesting to see who will come 1st, 2nd and 3rd, this game will see ‘the Oranje’ go head to head with ‘Das Team’ in what could be a winner-takes-all battle. While the Netherlands will be looking to emulate their previous 1988 Euros win and get past their last tournaments Group 16 knock out, Austria are entering the Euros for only their 4th time and attempting to supersede their last 16 finish, which is the highest they have managed before this tournament. With France likely to beat Poland and just a single point separating the three sides, let’s take a look at what the latest Netherlands vs Austria odds have to say about things, and learn who the bookies believe will win on the day.
At the time of writing, according to BetVictor, the latest betting odds on the Euro 2024, have Netherlands as the favourites for now, with odds of 11/10* meaning a £10 bet would return £21 if true. Austria aren’t too far behind however at 12/5*, with the same £10 staked paying out £34, while a draw is currently priced at 9/4*, so a £10 wager would pay £32.50 if the two sides are tied at the end of the game. With the Dutch side sitting in 7th place according to the FIFA Men’s world standings table and the Austrian side some 18 places lower in 25th position, it’s unsurprising that the Netherlands are favourite to overturn their opponents on the 25th June at 5pm, when they meet at the Olympiastadion Berlin.
With Netherlands head coach, Ronald Koeman, hoping his captain Virgin van Dijk will draw the best from their key striker, Memphis Depay, in his efforts to overtake the country’s highest ever goal scorer, the infamous Robin van Persie, Austria’s coach, Ralf Rangnick will look to his captain, Marcel Sabitzer and the country’s highest capped player, vice-captain Marko Arnautović, to fill the void left behind by injured David Alaba, and motivate his players to pick up all three points in what will be be a hard-fought game. Despite Netherlands having the lead on the bookies vote, we think that Austria will want to prove how much of a upcoming star they can truly be on the global stage, and might do enough to hold the Dutch to a draw when the two teams come to blows.
