Qatar will face Netherlands at Al Bayt Stadium at 15:00 UTC in the Fifth match of Group A in the world cup.

The Netherlands want a victory against Qatar in their last group match.This match is important for Netherlands,who have not yet qualified for the Round of 16.

There is even a possibility that netherlands will be eliminated only if they lose this game.Therefore, the Dutch team will go out today to beat the relatively weak Qatar by scoring as many goals as possible.

On the other hand, this is an opportunity for Qatar to get its maiden victory, having been eliminated from the World cup early.

Qatar can block the Netherlands' way because there is no tension about the result for them.Anyway, let's hope for a great match at Al Bayt Stadium.


TEAM NEWS

Qatar

 

As for Qatar, it seems we shouldn’t expect Felix Sanchez to stray far from his established line-up. They may be out but their Spanish coach is desperate to avoid his team becoming the first World Cup hosts to exit without winning at least a point.


Netherlands


 

No-one scored more goals in European qualifying for Qatar 2022 than Memphis Depay, but we have yet to see the Netherlands talisman start a match at the tournament itself. 

With Matthijs de Ligt one yellow card away from a suspension, expect Jurrien Timber to retain his place at the back. 


TALKING POINTS

- The Netherlands have won all four of their FIFA World Cup matches against Asian sides, scoring 11 goals and conceding just once. This is their first ever meeting with Qatar in any competition.

- This is the Netherlands’ fourth FIFA World Cup match against a host nation – they lost the 1974 and 1978 finals to Germany and Argentina respectively, before beating Brazil in the third place play-off in 2014.

- Only in 1978 (2-3 vs Scotland) have the Netherlands lost their final group stage match at the FIFA World Cup (excluding second group phases), winning four and drawing three.

- Qatar have lost both of their 2022 World Cup matches; no single host nation has ever lost as many as three matches at an edition of the tournament.

- The Netherlands have scored with three of their four shots on target at the 2022 World Cup, although they only managed one in their 1-1 draw with Ecuador. Since 1966, their fewest total shots on target in a group stage at the World Cup is 10 in 1990.
