Match Preview
The Netherlands were unfortunate to land in such a demanding group alongside Sweden and Croatia, against whom they still managed to offer solid resistance. I am backing Oranje to secure a consolation victory over underdogs Georgia and cover a –6.5 handicap.
Netherlands Playing for Pride
The Netherlands were beaten in both of their matches so far, which confirmed their elimination from the European Championship 2026. They now enter the final round playing purely for pride.
They were heavy underdogs against co-hosts Sweden in the opening round but delivered a competitive performance, particularly after the break, before eventually falling 36–31. Rutger ten Velde was the standout performer with nine goals.
Oranje were level with World Championship 2025 finalists Croatia for the opening 20 minutes of their second-round clash, but struggled to maintain offensive efficiency and eventually suffered a 35–29 defeat.
Georgia Showing Spirit but Falling Short
Georgia’s opening match at Euro 2026 was respectable despite their underdog status, as they went down narrowly 32–29 to Croatia. They even held a 12–6 lead in the first half and were later ahead 23–21 before fading in the closing stages.
The second-round clash against co-hosts Sweden was far less competitive, ending in a convincing 38–29 defeat. Giorgi Tskhovrebadze delivered an outstanding individual display, finishing the game with 11 goals.
This marks just Georgia’s second appearance at the European Championship, after finishing as the 18th-ranked team in the previous edition two years ago.
Verdict
Netherlands cruised past Georgia when the two sides met at the previous European Championship, and a similar outcome could be on the cards here. Their performances against favored Sweden and Croatia were respectable, so backing Oranje to win and cover a –6.5 handicap looks like the right play.
