Top World Cup Bets On Holland at the World Cup

Holland To Win Their Group

Holland have some decent opposition in their group (Denmark and Cameroon) but they are still not in the class of Holland and the Dutch managed to win every game in qualifying proving they are a team that has a winning mentality.

Holland To Be Eliminated In Quarter Final

Teams that win their group often get a relatively easy game in the Second Round and you would very much expect Holland to reach the quarter final as a minimum, but Holland have often looked unbeatable early and then crashed out, they have only gone better than the quarter final once in 20 years.

Holland To Beat Denmark 'to nil'

Holland proved how good they are defensively in qualifying by keeping six clean sheets and Denmark are another low scoring and low conceding team so this has the look of a low scoring game that Holland should win with a clean sheet.

Wesley Sneijder To Be Top Holland Scorer

Wesley Sneijder loves to get involved in attacks from midfield and has a great scoring record for Holland. At his most recent major tournament, Euro 2008, he scored twice to make him the joint top scorer for Holland.

Wesley Sneijder To Score Anytime Against Japan

The fact Sneijder is a midfielder and Holland have some talented attackers makes the Inter Milan midfielder a great price to score anytime in most matches. Holland could get most goals against Japan so that is the best game to back him to score anytime.
