Argentina vs. Netherlands Odds, Prediction
Other than Argentina’s upset loss to Saudi Arabia, both Argentina and the Netherlands have been performing very well at the 2022 World Cup. The Netherlands (ranked No. 8) have seen a relatively breezy path to the quarterfinals, winning group A and eliminating the USA with a 3-1 victory in the round of 16. Lionel Messi’s No. 3-ranked Argentina squad, meantime, recovered from their shocking opener loss with decisive wins over Mexico, Poland, and, most recently, Australia.
Given their high rankings and impressive performances so far, Argentina vs. Netherlands is shaping up to be a very close match. And oddsmakers agree, giving Argentina the slight edge with moneyline odds of -152 compared to +126 for the Netherlands (FanDuel).
Be sure to use one of the above streaming services or a VPN to watch Argentina vs. Netherlands online today.
