The United States Men's National Team will try to advance to the quarterfinals of the World Cup for just the third time in history when the Americans square off against the Netherlands in a Round of 16 match on Saturday. The last time the USA reached the quarterfinals came in 2002, when the Americans beat rival Mexico in the Round of 16 before falling to Germany, 1-0, in a controversial quarterfinal match. The only other time the Americans advanced past the Round of 16 came in the inaugural World Cup, in 1930, when they reached the semifinals of the 13-team tournament.
Kickoff is 10 a.m. ET. The Netherlands are the +100 favorites (risk $100 to win $100) in its latest USA vs. Netherlands odds from Caesars Sportsbook, with the USMNT the +300 underdogs. A 90-minute draw is priced at +220. The over/under for total goals scored is 2.5.
Before you lock in your Netherlands vs. USA picks or World Cup 2022 predictions, you need to see what proven soccer insider Martin Green has to say.
After working in the sports betting industry for several years, Green became a professional sports writer and handicapper and has covered the game worldwide. Since then, his European soccer picks have been spot-on. Green has generated almost $35,000 for $100 bettors since the 2017-18 season, and he has his finger on the pulse of the game all over the globe.
Green knows that the Dutch have a red-hot goal scorer in Cody Gakpo. The 23-year-old forward for PSV has scored in each of the Netherlands' three matches so far in the World Cup. As of Wednesday, his three goals were tied for the most in the tournament.
Green also has taken into account that the Americans have played solid defensively so far in Qatar. Led by goalkeeper Matt Turner, centerback Tim Ream and defensive midfielder Tyler Adams, the USA have conceded only one goal in three matches, and that came on a penalty kick. Turner has faced just seven shots on goal, making six saves.
Now, Green has taken a close look at the USA vs. Netherlands match from all sides, and we can tell you he is taking the Under on the goal total. He also has two other best bets, including one that pays almost +300, and a full breakdown of this World Cup Group Round of 16 match. You ABSOLUTELY need to see his picks and analysis before making any selections of your own.
