We’ve assessed the football betting odds for the game and put together our expert. sports betting tip. So read on to find out how you can get the best possible value from this key matchup.

The Netherlands World Cup campaign has been relatively smooth so far. They topped a tough group that included world champion the United States, conceding just one goal in the process. After a tense 1-0 win over Portugal and an entertaining draw with the US, the Dutch cut loose to thrash Vietnam 7-0 in their final group game.

Defence has been key to the Dutch success so far, they have conceded just one goal, and have looked extremely solid at the back. At the top end of the pitch, Jill Roord is leading the way with three goals so far.

Before the tournament, few people gave South Africa much chance of progressing from their group. Following just one point from their opening two games, qualification looked even more unlikely, but a stunning 3-2 win over Italy booked their place in the last 16 for the first time ever.

The star of that victory over the Italians was Thembi Kgatlana. Her last minute winner capped off a brilliant all round display, and the South Africans will be looking for more of the same against the Dutch.

The Netherlands and South Africa have played each other three times previously, with the Dutch winning all three encounters. Most recently, they met in a 2022 friendly, which the Netherlands won 5-1. This will be the two sides first ever meeting in a World Cup.

In putting together our statistical highlights for the game, we have looked at the key information that will help you find a betting bonus for the fixture.

Unsurprisingly, betting apps have the Netherlands as huge favourites for the game. They are as short as 1/5 for the win, with South Africa at 12/1. If you think the game will be all square after 90 minutes, the draw can be found at 5/1.

This looks a step too far for South Africa, who are probably the weakest of the last 16 teams. In contrast, the Dutch look equipped to make a deep run in the tournament and will be confident of easing through this game.

Clearly, backing a team at 1/5 is not the most adventurous of betting moves, but it is the only viable option here. Our recommendation is to use this selection as part of an acca that includes some of the more even looking last 16 games.
