The matchup between Frenkie de Jong and Tunisia's midfield could decide the game early. If the Netherlands dominate possession as expected, Tunisia may spend long periods defending deep and relying on counterattacks.
Netherlands to Win
The Netherlands have been one of the strongest attacking teams in the tournament, while Tunisia have struggled badly against quality opposition. With qualification and potentially first place at stake, Oranje should approach this match with intensity and control from the opening whistle.
Tunisia may show greater resistance than in their previous outings, but the quality gap between the sides is substantial.
