Command Analysis

Netherlands

Netherlands national team is in a great physical condition and they have completely deserved a top spot in the standings with 20 points. Team has only one defeat in the current tournament - they failed to pick up points in the match against Turkey (2:4).
In the previous round Netherlands surprisingly dropped points. They failed to beat a modestMontenegro side (2:2), conceding two goals at the end of the match.

Norway

Norway national team found themselves at the 3rd position in the group before the ultimate match, but not a long time ago they had a chance to fight for the top spot. They still have a chance, but they need to beat the Netherlands and to expect a mistake from Turkey. Team has been in the 2nd spot for a long time, but failed miserably in the previous round.
Scandinavian side dropped the points in the match against one of the main underdogs of the group, Latvia (0:0).

Tip and bets
In our opinion, a bet on the favourite is the best decision here. Oranges are in a great form now and even despite a slip-up in the previous match they still want to get into the World Cup from the 1st spot, otherwise, they can not only to end up in the play-offs, but also to drop to the 3rd spot.
Visitors lost their main star and they are not scoring many goals recently.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (-1,5) on Norway
We don't think that both teams will be able to score today. Teams will fight for a World Cup spot, so both teams need to play accurately, visitors will probably park the bus in an opportunity to find a chance on counter-attacks. In this case, we are expecting goals to flow.
Our second bet is on both teams to not score
