Tunisia vs Netherlands: All-time head-to-head record ahead of FIFA World Cup 2026

Tunisia and the Netherlands will meet each other on June 26 IST.

Tunisia and the Netherlands will play their last Group F clash at the FIFA World Cup 2026, both teams still hoping to reach the knockout stage. It’s a showdown with a lot on the line at the end of the group.

The Netherlands started with a draw against Japan but won their second game of the campaign 5-1 against Sweden. Tunisia, however, were beaten by Sweden and Japan and are looking for their maiden points of the tournament.

Both teams are in different moods after their respective series and have different goals in mind. The Netherlands are hoping to come out on top in the group, while Tunisia will want to finish their campaign on a high.

Tunisia vs Netherlands: What happened the last time both sides faced each other?

The only previous meeting between the two nations took place in April 1978 in an international friendly. The Netherlands secured a 4-0 victory, with the match serving as preparation for the 1978 FIFA World Cup.

Since then, the teams have not crossed paths in either friendlies or competitive tournaments. Their Group F clash at the FIFA World Cup 2026 will therefore mark the first competitive meeting between Tunisia and the Netherlands.
