The Netherlands is a team with massive historical ties in the FIFA World Cup, and even though the team hasn’t won a single World Cup trophy, they’ve had incredible moments at the competition. The team has been close to winning the competition for many years.
However, they’ve been unlucky. In this year’s competition, they are paired with the host, Ecuador, and Senegal. The team would have to win at least two games to secure a spot in the competition’s knockout phase. They have a formidable team that can challenge for the title.

FIFA World Cup Netherlands' Record
Historical Events
The team’s history at the world cup started in 1934 when they were knocked out of the competition in the round of 16. In the following competition, they were also removed in the round of 16. And it wasn’t until 1974 before they got back into the fray, and they went to the finals, finishing second in the competition.
The team went on to another final in the following competition, but the result was the same as the last one. After that, they had a rollercoaster of events and only made it to another final once, where the result didn’t change, and they remained without a world cup trophy. The Netherlands soccer team betting is the same.
How well have they done in previous World Cups?
The team’s best finish in the competition is second place. They haven’t won the competition since they started qualifying. Aside from finishing second, the team has gotten third and fourth-place finishes once. They’ve been knocked out of the quarter-finals once, and on multiple occasions, they’ve crashed out of the competition in the round of 16.

Expected FIFA World Cup Team Roster
Van Gaal has his work cut out for him because of the array of talents in the team. And with a limited number of slots available for different positions, we believe only a few players have solidified their position in the team. However, below is our expected FIFA World Cup team roster for Qatar.
World Cup Schedule
After the draw, the team was added to Group A, where they would face Senegal, Ecuador, and Qatar. The team will play the AFCON champions in the first match to open their world cup competition. And after that, they will take on Ecuador for the second game of the group stages.
Finally, the team would play Qatar to wrap up the group phase. If they can win their group, they would have to face the team that finished second in Group B. Therefore, the team may play England, Iran, the USA, or Wales.
