Netherlands (W) Team Overview
The Netherlands have stuck with the same roster that featured in the opening week of the tournament. The squad still boasts a wealth of experience and has been aiming for a more versatile approach, increasingly utilizing the middle of the net. This tactical shift has made the Dutch attack less predictable compared to the start of the season.

Editorial Prediction
The Netherlands head into this clash as favourites, boasting greater international experience and a strong head-to-head record against their opponents. However, this prediction isn’t about the outcome but rather the Dutch team’s scoring output. The Netherlands have scored fewer than 93.5 points in each of their last six Nations League games, and they’ve also failed to surpass that mark in their five most recent meetings overall. Given that Ukraine are known for making life difficult for teams at their level and often drag matches into tight battles, the Dutch could once again struggle to reach such a high total. Our pick: Netherlands total under 93.5 points.
