Top Netherlands vs. Sweden predictions
After examining Sweden vs. Netherlands from every angle, Green is leaning Over 2.5 total goals (-150). These teams combined for seven goals in their openers. Brighton midfielder Yasin Ayari scored twice against Tunisia, and goals from Alexander Isak, Viktor Gyökeres, and substitute Mattias Svanberg made up for the rest against Tunisia. Virgil van Dijk and Crysencio Summerville both found the net for Sweden against Japan.
Green notes that, on paper, Netherlands have some of the best defensemen in the world, but they were “surprisingly porous” against Japan. On the other end, “Sweden’s defense looks a little suspect,” Green notes. “The Swedes have conceded in their last seven games, so it’s hard to see them keeping the Dutch attack at bay for 90 minutes.” See Green’s best bets for Sweden vs. Netherlands at SportsLine, and you can bet the Over 2.5 goals at FanDuel here:
