THE PREDICTION

England did well to reach the semi-finals of the Nations League after coming through a tough group with Spain and Croatia so confidence will be high. Their recent form has been excellent although the condition of some of the players is seemingly questionable after a long season.The Dutch should not be underestimated however as they overcame France and Germany, especially after the terrific performances by Ajax this season, and they will seriously test England in what should be a high-scoring game.
