Netherlands vs Greece betting prediction
The Netherlands host Greece on 13 November 2026 at 19:45 in the UEFA Nations League, Matchweek 5. The two sides sit first and second in this competition, separated by nothing but the order of the table, and both are unbeaten so far. That makes the result harder to call than the standings suggest, and we have a clear view on where the value sits.

Recent form: scoring Dutch against careful Greeks
Across all competitions, the Netherlands' last four matches brought two wins and two draws, with goals 7:5. The 1-1 at home to Germany was the result that did not quite fit, while the 2-1 win in Serbia and the 2-1 at home to Serbia showed a side that keeps finding the net. The 2-2 in Greece is the other draw in that run.
Greece's last four matches in all competitions also read two wins and two draws, with goals 5:3. Their wins came 2-1 in Serbia and 1-0 in Germany, and both of their home results were goalless or level in nature: a 0-0 with Germany and the 2-2 with the Netherlands. They have not conceded in half of their last four, which is the kind of record that makes us slow to back a heavy home win.

Head-to-head favours the Dutch
The last three meetings belong to the Netherlands, who won two, drew one and lost none, with goals 6:2. The most recent of them ended 2-2 in Greece. Before that the Netherlands won 1-0 in Greece and beat them 3-0 at home. Greece have not won any of those three games, and that record weighs on our thinking about the result.

Tips on corners and cards
Correct score prediction
Best bet for Netherlands vs Greece: Over 2.5 goals
Our main tip is Over 2.5 goals at odds 1.64 (chance 60%). We think the goals are the better angle here, and the reasons are straightforward.
- The Netherlands had more than 2.5 goals in 3 of their last 4 matches in all competitions.
- Greece had more than 2.5 goals in 2 of their last 4 matches in all competitions.
- The bookmakers expect about 3 goals in total in this match.
- The market gives the over 60% at best odds of 1.64.
The bet wins on 2-1, 3-0 and 3-1, and loses on 2-0, 1-0 and 1-1. A scoreline like 2-0 or 1-0 would be enough to lose it, so this is a bet that needs at least three goals to land. We think the Netherlands' scoring habits make that a sensible wager.
Another tip: Netherlands to win
Our second tip is Netherlands to win at odds 1.53 (chance 63%). We would not stake heavily on it, but we like the Dutch to take the points. They have won 2 of their last 4 and lost none of them, and they are level with Greece on 8 points while holding the top spot. At home they have one win and one draw without defeat, and they won 2 of the last 3 meetings while Greece won none. The bet wins on 2-0, 1-0, 2-1, 3-0 and 3-1, and loses only on a 1-1 draw.
Other prices worth a look
If you want to spread the risk without going against either tip, a few of the other lines fit this match. Over 1.5 goals at odds 1.20, with a chance of 80%, is a short price that sits comfortably beside our main pick. Netherlands -0.5 at odds 1.52, with a chance of 64%, wins only if the Dutch win by one goal or more, which suits anyone who likes the home side. Both teams to score at odds 1.71, with a chance of 55%, is the choice for those who expect Greece to find the net at least once.
Our verdict on the goals and the result
We would back the goals first and the Netherlands second, and we would not touch a Greece win on the market's numbers at 6.37. Greece are a side that keeps things tidy and wins away, but the Dutch have scored in most of their recent matches and have the better head-to-head record. We expect the home side to score more often than they concede, and we think the three-goal line is the one to watch.
