Team Reviews
Netherlands U19
Netherlands U19, coached by Peter van der Veen, leads Group B with a perfect 6 points from two matches in the 2025 UEFA U19 Championship in Romania, securing a semifinal spot. They defeated Germany 3-0 on June 14, 2025, with goals from Ayoub Oufkir (45’, 90+2’) and Kees Smit (90+5’), and Norway 2-0 on June 17, 2025, at Ilie Oana Stadium, Ploiești. Their form shows 4 wins and 1 draw in their last five competitive matches, averaging 2.0 goals scored and 0.4 goals conceded per game. Key players include Sparta Rotterdam’s Oufkir, a dynamic winger with 5 goals in qualifiers, and midfielder Smit, who drives late attacks. The Netherlands’ strengths are their clinical finishing, high pressing, and defensive solidity (clean sheets in both matches), but their reliance on late goals could be tested by England’s resilience. They qualified as Group 2 winners, defeating Ukraine 4-0.
England U19
England U19, led by Will Antwi, is second in Group B with 2 points after two draws: 2-2 against Norway on June 14, 2025, and a historic 5-5 comeback against Germany on June 17, 2025, at Arcul de Triumf Stadium, Bucharest, rallying from 5-1 down with goals from Josh King (35’), Ethan Wheatley (52’), Reiss Russell-Denny (55’), Zach Abbott (61’), and Jesse Derry (63’). Their form includes 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss in their last five, averaging 2.6 goals scored and 1.8 goals conceded. Key players include Tottenham’s Mikey Moore, who scored a late penalty against Norway, and Fulham’s King. England’s strengths are their attacking depth and fighting spirit, but defensive lapses (conceding 7 goals in 2 matches) and Moore’s late ankle injury against Norway, which may sideline him, are concerns. They qualified by topping their elite round, defeating Portugal 1-0.
Head-to-Head
The Netherlands and England have met 10 times since 2007, with England winning 4, Netherlands 3, and 3 draws. Their last encounter was a 2-2 draw in a 2023 qualifier, with England’s Dane Scarlett and Netherlands’ Kees Smit scoring. Matches are often high-scoring, with 75% producing over 2.5 goals. England’s 4-0 win in the 2017 U19 EURO semifinals is their biggest victory, while the Netherlands’ 3-0 win in 2013 qualifiers marks their largest margin. The Netherlands’ recent dominance (unbeaten in their last 3 against England) gives them a slight edge.
Predicted Score: Netherlands U19 2-1 England U19
The Netherlands are likely to score through Oufkir or Smit, while England may respond via King or Wheatley. The Dutch’s defensive discipline should edge out England’s attacking surge, but Moore’s potential absence and England’s defensive issues may prove decisive. The match, broadcast on BBC iPlayer, could see cards if England’s urgency leads to fouls.
