Netherlands vs Japan FIFA World Cup Betting Insights
Cody Gakpo excels when he is playing for his country. How will he do today against Japan?
This matchup is huge for the final rankings and while both sides are expected to qualifiy from the group, only one of them can finish top of the standings and get better seeding for the remainder of the tournament. The Dutch are favored, but slightly on the ML today. They come in ranked 8th best int he world and have a strong backing of fans and bettors alike, who think they can make a run in this tournament.
Japan on the other side are ranked 18th in the Fifa World Rankings and havent lost a match since Sepetemebr 9th in 2025. They have beaten teams like Scotland, England, Brazil and Paraguay in Friendlies over the course of the last year and are in great form for todays matchup.

Netherlands vs Japan FIFA World Cup Picks
Ristu Doan was the only multi-goal scorer for Japan at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar
Best Bet: Netherlands vs Japan Both Teams to Score (-120 on Luck Rebel Sportsbook)
Love this line with 2 teams who love to attack and have good attacking options. The Netherlands ill have Memphis Depay, Cody Gakpo, Donyell Malen and more expected in their attack. While Japan are just as formidable with Takefuso Kubo, Ritsu Doan, Daichi Kamada leading their lines.
Japan impressed in the 2022 World Cup. They managed to beat both Germany and Spain, while hitting both teams to score in both of those games. Japan then lost to Croatia on penalties, but not before again hitting the BTTS. Japan may not have the name power but they play brilliantly together and are coming into this game on brilliant form.
I think both sides are able to score atleast 1 goal in what should be a facinating game to watch today.
Side Player Prop: Ritsu Doan Over 1.5 Shots (-120)
Doan was a standout player in the 2022 World Cup and currently leads the Japanese side in shots over his last 10 starts. Doan averages 1.76 shots per game for the Japan side and has put up 2+ shots in friendlies against England, Bolivia, Brazil, Ghana and Paraguay recently.
