Netherland will be looking to make it back-to-back wins in the Euro 2024 qualifiers when they travel to Aviva Stadium to take on Republic of Ireland. The visitors are heading into the match on the back of a dominant 3-0 victory against Greece on Thursday, while the boys in Green were beaten 2-0 by France last time out. The hosts are currently languishing at the fourth spot in Group B with just three points to their name from four games, only above Gibraltar, who are yet to open their account, and three points adrift of second-placed Netherlands, who have a game in hand.

Ireland began their European Championship qualification campaign back-to-back defeats against France and Greece, before getting the better of Gibraltar 3-0 on June 20. However, the Boys in Green couldn’t extend the wining run, losing to France at Parc de Princes on Thursday. Les Bleus opened the scoring through Aurellen Tchouameni’s stunning strike inside the opening 19 minutes before Marcus Thuram doubled the lead three minutes into the second-half. It was a dominant performance from the 2018 World Champions, having close to 70% ball possession and recording 25 shots with five of them on target, while Stephen Keny’s side attempted just two efforts on target.
Netherlands, on the other hand, put three goals past Greece without reply at Philips Stadion last time out thanks to Denzel Dumfries’ first-half play-making masterclass, providing assists to Marten de Roon, Cody Gakpo and Wout Weghorst to get on the scoresheet. It was Ronald Koeman’s side’s second win from six competitive games, while other four ended in defeats. Nevertheless, they are sitting pretty in Group B behind runaway leaders France, who ended the Netherlands’ five-game unbeaten run away from home in Euro qualifiers with a 4-0 thrashing six months ago.
Republic of Ireland probable starting lineup: Bazunu, Collins, Egan, Duffy, Browne, Cullen, Molumby, McClean, Ogbene, Idah, Knight
Netherlands probable starting lineup: Flekken, Geertruida, De Vrij, Van Dijk, Dumfries, De Roon, De Jong, Blind, Simons, Gakpo, Weghorst
