- The Netherlands are without a win in their last four EURO final tournament matches (D2 L2)

- The Netherlands have only failed to score in one of their last 20 U21 EURO matches (includes qualifying)
- The Netherlands have conceded more than one goal in only two of their last 14 U21 EURO matches (includes qualifying)

THE PREDICTION
The Netherlands come into this on the back of their second 1-1 draw of the tournament. The first one came against a determined Romania despite the Dutch having more than 70% possession, the second a fairly even game in which they led Germany until the 84th minute. It means that they need to beat Hungary and hope there is a winner in the Romania-Germany game, otherwise they are out. Their side of the deal should happen as Hungary are the only team to be eliminated from the tournament after two matches following their second defeat of the tournament against Romania.
