Holland vs Denmark World Cup betting

Holland are many people's tip for the World Cup but with the news that Arjen Robben has been struggling for fitness they have already received one massive blow. If they are to have any hope of winning the World Cup they really have to be beating Denmark who are a solid but slightly average side. Holland have some great attacking talent in their team but during qualifying we saw their defensive qualities, they kept a brilliant eight clean sheets in ten games. They also managed to win all of their qualifying games which is no mean feat so you would be expecting them to beat Denmark.

Denmark have some decent players but they don't have the strength in depth of the likes of Holland. Like Holland they proved they have a mean defence during qualifying, in their eight games they kept five clean sheets and conceded a single goal in two more of those games so everything points to a low scoring game here between the two European sides.

Holland vs Denmark odds and tips

With Denmark being a decent team the odds on Holland winning the game are actually pretty good and it looks well worth having a bet on Holland to win the game. This game just has to be a low scoring encounter so under 2.5 goals is a great bet, it would be somewhat of a surprise if there was even two goals in this match. With a low scoring match expected and a victory for Holland you must consider Holland winning 'to nil', it is hard to see Denmark scoring a goal so Holland should only have to win the game for that bet to come in. Most likely winning scorelines for Holland are 1-0 and 2-0, an early goal for Holland might lead to a 2-0 win but we think the most likely scorline is going to be 1-0 to Holland.

Holland have plenty of players who can score goals, with fitness doubts about Arjen Robben and Robin Van Persie always likely to pick up injuries it could be best to back Dirk Kuyt to get the goals for Holland at this World Cup. He plays a much more attacking role for the Dutch then for his club side Liverpool and that means he is often overpriced by the bookies in the goalscoring markets. With not many goals expected back him only to score the first goal, not in the anytime scorer market.

Holland vs Denmark best bets

Not the most likely winner in the Holland v Denmark match, but at the prices the best bet has to be Holland to win 1-0. Both teams don't concede many goals, only once in qualifying did Denmark concede more than one goal and Holland should be happy to win their first match 1-0 to get the three points.

A similar bet to the best bet but this one is shorter odds and more likely to come in. Under 2.5 goals looks an outstanding bet for this match given we are only expecting one goal, it is almost impossible to see there being three goals in the match and we wouldn't even put you off backing under 1.5 goals, although under 2.5 goals is the recommended bet.
