England Women vs Netherlands Women

England are aiming to bounce back from their opening defeat when they face Netherlands in their second Group D fixture at the UEFA European Women's Championship.

The defending champions need a win to keep their title defence alive but face a Netherlands side full of confidence after a solid win. Both teams are known for their attacking style of play and could be set to produce goals in this one.

England Women News

England began their title defence with a 2-1 defeat to France in their opening fixture. They fell two goals down before Keira Walsh pulled one back three minutes from time.

The Lionesses must now attempt a quick turnaround in their next game to keep their campaign alive. However, their recent form has been erratic, with Sarina Wiegman's team picking up four wins and suffering three defeats from their last seven matches across all competitions.

England often look sharp going forward, scoring in their last nine matches across all competitions, with the last six fixtures producing over 2.5 goals. Four of their last five matches have also offered up over 1.5 goals in the first half.

Netherlands Women News

The Netherlands began their Women's Euros campaign with a comfortable 3-0 victory over Wales. Vivian Miedema opened the scoring before the break while Victoria Pelova and Esmee Brugts added further goals in the second half.

That result maintains a solid recent run for the Netherlands, who are unbeaten in seven of their last eight matches across all competitions. They have picked up five wins in that run and manager Andries Jonker will be keen to carry that form into their next game.

The Netherlands often show their quality going forward and have scored in nine of their last 10 matches across all competitions. Nine of those 10 matches have also produced over 2.5 goals while three of the last four fixtures have served up over 1.5 goals in the first half.

Head to Head

England have seven wins and three draws, while the Netherlands have picked up three wins from 13 previous matches. The Lionesses claimed a 3-2 victory in the last meeting during the 2023 UEFA Nations League.

Verdict

England Women v Netherlands Women

England come into this clash desperate for a result but face a Netherlands side that can hold their own. Both teams have scored in their last four meetings, which have produced over 2.5 goals and a repeat is on the cards here.

Both sides like to make fast starts and with four of England's last five matches producing over 1.5 first-half goals, a similar pattern is expected.
