In a round of 16 match the Netherlands face the USA with a berth in the quarterfinals at stake Netherlands is the betting favorite in this match at -105 with the USA at +325 and a draw at +225.
The Dutch are the winners of Group A with seven points in three matches and in those three only gave up one goal.

The USA also only gave up one goal in their three group matches but only scored two. In their last match they beat Iran 1-0 to punch their ticket to the knockout stage but the young squad has to play better against Netherlands, who are a great tactical squad.
Netherlands
Pundits have been a little critical of the Dutch side, as in their three matches they only have eight shots on goal but have scored on five of them.
Holland is nearly at full strength but DF Jeremie Frimpong suffered an ankle injury in practice on Tuesday and may miss the USA match.
One thing the club is concerned about is that two key players in Matthijs de Ligt and Nathan Ake will miss out on the quarterfinals if they receive another yellow card.
The star of the team so far in the tourney has been emerging star Cody Gakpo, who has found the back of the net in all three of the group matches.
The Netherlands have been solid in the midfield and on defense and they will be facing a USA squad that has two key strikers that are not 100%.
USA
The USA squad is the second youngest in the World Cup and that has showed at times. However, the midfield play has been great as has the defense.
The midfield trio of Weston McKennie, Tyler Adams, and Yunus Musah was more than solid in the last match facing Iran and they have played great the whole tournament.
The USA has two big injury concerns for this match with the FW duo of Josh Sargent and Christian Pulisic. Pulisic scored the lone goal in the win over Iran but was injured on the play and never returned to the pitch.
It was reported that he even went to the hospital after the match but he stated he is determined to play against the Dutch.
Sargent was also injured in the Iran match, where he played well. Matt Turner has been solid in goal in the World Cup anchoring the defense. While that defense for the US has played well, they have made some errors but luckily it did not cost them.
The USA have the youth and the talent but can they now step up and beat a world power on the biggest stage?
Big question.
The Yanks have not had much success against European teams at the World Cup, as they have not beaten a UEFA team since the 2002 World Cup and in their last three knockout stage matches against them, they lost all three.
Free USA vs. Netherlands Prediction: Netherlands -105
The Dutch have not lost in 18 straight matches, have progressed to the knockout stage in every World Cup they have played in since 1934, and in the last 32 years have only lost in the knockout stage twice.
Too bad for the Yanks it will not be a third time this time around. The team has two key strikers with injury concerns and that is
for a squad that has only scored two goals in their last three matches.
The USA will play good defense but that defense will be cracked by the tactical Dutch squad, which is why they will win 2-0 and advance to the World Cup quarterfinals.
