Goaloo Analysis
Finland showed promise in the last qualifying cycle, securing third place in their group and earning a Euro 2024 playoff spot via the UEFA Nations League. However, their hopes were dashed by Wales in the first round. Their recent Nations League campaign in Division B was disappointing, as they lost all matches, resulting in relegation.
Finland began the current tournament targeting six points but struggled, narrowly defeating Malta (1-0) in a tight contest before squandering a two-goal lead against Lithuania (2-2). Their attack relies heavily on Joel Pohjanpalo, who has netted 15 goals this season for Venezia and Palermo, nearly securing promotion for the latter. The striker has already opened his account in this campaign, scoring against Lithuania.

Goaloo Prediction
The Netherlands, meanwhile, reached the Euro 2024 semifinals, navigating a tough group stage with mixed performances. Despite a shaky Nations League run—finishing second with just two wins—they pushed Spain to penalties in the playoffs, with Xavi Simons shining (18 G/A for Leipzig this season). While the Dutch lack an elite striker, their well-rounded squad should comfortably handle Finland’s direct style. Expect a controlled 0-2 victory, with the Netherlands (-1.5 handicap) a solid bet as their attacking quality prevails.

Pick：Netherlands Handicap (-1.5)
