Mbappe has been in sparkling form at Real Madrid of late, netting a brace to seal a 2-1 comeback win at Villarreal on the weekend. France\u2019s last two away games saw them beat Belgium 2-1 and Italy 3-1, impressive form on the road which we can see them extending.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Spain to beat Netherlands @ 2.43<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This should be a close-fought battle between two of the best international sides in the world. The Netherlands and Spain are hard to separate in the odds market as a result, but it is hard to look past the reigning European champions. After winning Euro 2024, Luis de la Fuente\u2019s side went unbeaten in their Nations League group campaign, winning the last five on the bounce. Even without the injured Rodri, La Roja are a force to be reckoned with &#8211; as the Dutch may find out this week.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Portugal to beat Denmark @ 2.18<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Portugal are another side who went unbeaten in their Nations League group campaign, although they only won four of the six matches. However, those victories included a 5-1 thrashing of Poland and Roberto Martinez\u2019s side will certainly be eyeing the trophy they won back in 2019. With key defender Ruben Dias back in the fold and captain Cristiano Ronaldo still scoring goals at the age of 40, we are predicting Portugal to secure a priceless first-leg win in Scandinavia.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Italy vs Germany: Draw @ 3.11<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A match fit for a European Championship or World Cup final graces the quarter-final stage of the Nations League, what a treat for football fans! Italy will know a first-leg advantage is crucial if they are to progress, as Germany are a formidable opponent on home soil (a 7-0 win over Bosnia &amp; Herzegovina and a 5-0 victory over Hungary in the group stage). Julian Nagelsmann\u2019s side struggled a tad on their travels, though, drawing twice and winning only once. But when the lights shine brightest, the Germans usually rise to the fore and a draw in Italy would be a fantastic result.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When you choose NetBet Sport, you can enjoy a whole range of top-quality sports and markets.
