Netherlands team news
Ronald Koeman’s side comes into this match in good spirits after a convincing 2-0 win over Finland in their group opener, a result that snapped a three-game winless streak and reaffirmed their status as group favorites. The Dutch are unbeaten in their last eight home internationals and have a formidable record against Malta, winning all previous meetings without conceding a goal.
There are no reported injuries or suspensions in the Dutch camp, so key players like Virgil van Dijk, Frenkie de Jong, and Cody Gakpo should be available.
Malta team news
Malta’s qualifying campaign has started poorly, with just one point from their opening three matches and no goals scored. Their most recent outing saw them hold Lithuania to a goalless draw, but they have struggled to create chances, registering a low expected goals tally and failing to score in their last four matches.
There are no fresh injury concerns in the camp.
