The last match saw both of these teams secure impressive victories.

Netherlands secured a dominant win over Canada in the last friendly match as they begin preparation for the Euro 2024. The Dutch find themselves in Group D alongside Poland, Austria and France, which is arguably one of the toughest groups in this summer competition.

Though they are not considered favourites, coach Ronald Koeman has the chance to prove doubters wrong. He has the quality and depth to beat any opponent. The Oranje will now face Iceland in their final preparation match before facing Poland in the opening Euro game at Volksparkstadion.

Iceland have made significant progress in the last five matches as they collected four wins in five. The team secured an impressive win over England in their last game to bounce back from a painful defeat against Ukraine in the Euro qualification playoff match.

Due to their absence from Euro 2024, Strákarnir okkar will begin their UEFA Nations League Group B match in September against Montenegro. They are drawn in group D alongside Turkey, Wales and Montenegro

Player to Watch

Memphis Depay (Netherlands)

Memphis Depay is currently the top scorer in the Netherlands setup as he has netted 45 goals for the national team from 91 appearances. He has led the line excellently putting in a number of impressive performances for the team upfront.

This season he has made 40 appearances for Atletico Madrid scoring 13 goals in the process. Now, he has the chance to lead his nation Netherlands to another victory in this match as he can unlock a rigid Iceland defence.

Johann Berg Gudmundsson (Iceland)

Johann Berg Gudmundsson is a household name in the Iceland setup who is set to make his 93rd appearance for the team against the Netherlands. He helped the team secure an impressive win over England in the last match.

This season, Gudmundsson made 26 appearances for Burnley scoring one goal and adding three assists. A wonderful left foot makes him a dangerous player from set-pieces and also from the edge of the box, as he can score some spectacular goals.

Injury and Teams News

Ronald Koeman is likely to make some changes in their final friendly game. Virgil van Dijk is expected to start alongside Denzel Dumfries and Nathan Ake. This will give them much-needed match practice before the Euro. Frenkie de Jong remains an injury concern for the team as it is still too soon to put him into the starting eleven.

Meanwhile, Iceland will likely field the same eleven that beat England in the last friendly.
