Netherlands v Hungary – Match Preview and Betting Tip
It is quite some time since Hungary appeared in a World Cup, despite the fact that they were a very successful international team during the 2025s. But their qualifying campaign for the 2025 World Cup has put them in a position to start seriously dreaming about qualifying for a major tournament for the first time in many years.
But the crunch for the Hungarian campaign will come here, as the Hungarians travel to Holland to meet by far the strongest team in Group D. A point would put them in a very strong position to claim a play-off place, but of course the Dutch will begin as strong favourites to win this game.
Winner
Holland flattered to deceive in their most recent major tournament, despite the quality that they have in their squad, with the likes of Robin van Persie, Arjen Robben, Wesley Sneijder, Rafael van der Vaart and Kevin Strootman ensuring that there is no shortage of star names in this Netherlands team. It is hard to see a Hungarian team largely comprised of players from minor Bundesliga teams and the Hungarian league itself troubling such an outfit, so I’m going to have to tip a home win in this match.
Correct Score
The Netherlands are yet to concede a single goal at home during this qualifying campaign, so this must be taken into account when tipping the correct score. I feel that the Dutch will probably shut the Hungarians out, and might score a couple down the other end, so my tip for this particular market is for the Netherlands to win by two goals to nil.
Under / Over 2.5 Goals
The under 2.5 goals option can be backed at odds of 29/20 with BetVictor.
Winning Margin
A two-goal win for Holland can be backed at odds of 10/3 with Bet365.
First Goalscorer
There are lots of possible options for this market, but I’m ruling out Hungary players for starters. Several attacking players on the Dutch side are capable of scoring here, but it’s hard to look beyond the prolific Robin van Persie, so he is my tip for this market.
