Team news
The Netherlands will be without the services of a number of their first-choice attackers, as Donyell Malen and Steven Bergwijn have been ruled out and Memphis Depay is an injury doubt, owing to a hamstring injury. Davy Propper is also unavailable as the Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder picked up a knock in training, paving way for the likes of Luuk de Jong, Ryan Babel and Donny van de Beek to start for the Netherlands.
Myron Boadu has been AZ Alkmaar's goalscoring sensation this season and the youngster could feature for some point for the away side, as he aims to make his debut. The 18-year-old was rewarded for his tally of seven goals in 11 league appearances with his first call-up to the national team and will be eager to make his mark, as the Netherlands are short-staffed upfront.
Injured: Steven Bergwijn (hamstring), Donyell Malen (ankle), Davy Propper (knock)
Doubtful: Memphis Depay (hamstring)
Suspensions: None
Predicted XI
Netherlands predicted XI (4-3-3): Jasper Cillessen, Joel Veltman, Virgil van Dijk, Matthijs de Ligt, Daley Blind, Frenkie de Jong, Donny van der Beek, Georginio Wijnaldum, Ryan Babel, Luuk de Jong, Quincy Promes
