Holland vs Mexico Betting Preview Pt 2

With Mexico’s goalkeeper Ochoa emerging as one of the stars of the World Cup (conveniently when he is currently looking for a new contract and a potential move), there really is every chance that he can keep the Dutch side at bay throughout the opening 90 minutes.

Holland play with an electric attacking unit spearheaded by Robin Van Persie and pacey winger Arjen Robben. The pair combined to make a major statement early on in the tournament with their incredible performance against the defending World Cup champions Spain.

Look for them to try to strike early and often in this one and it will be interesting to see how the Mexican defense copes with their ability to get behind defenders and attack on the break as well. 

With Louis Van Gaal proving that he has a fierce tactical nous during this tournament, you might expect to see the Dutch pull something new and offer up some different tactics to what they have been doing previously in the World Cup. He has made some excellent adjustments during the matches with several individuals coming off the bench to score. 

In regards to outright qualification, look for Holland trading at a slim 1/2 price tag to progress to the next round of the competition by any means while Mexico remain at a very hefty 13/8 listing. Should the match go to extra time or penalties, Holland are favoured to win in extra time at a 10/1 price while they are only 11/1 to win the match on penalties. 

Mexico are trading at around 20/1 to win the match in extra time while they are considered more likely to win by penalties with a 12/1 price tag currently being floated.
