Jakarta, CNN Indonesia —
Duel Holland vs Argentina in the quarterfinals World Cup 2022 became one of the highly anticipated big matches on Saturday (10/12) in the morning WIB. The following is the Netherlands vs Argentina prediction for the 2022 World Cup.
The match between the Netherlands and Argentina will take place at the Lusail Iconic Stadium.
Both teams will certainly look committed to fighting for a ticket to the semi-finals. The Netherlands are undefeated at the 2022 World Cup. Out of a total of four matches played so far, De Oranje has won three.
Meanwhile, Argentina missed the start, but showed a better performance in the knockout stage. After falling 1-2 to Saudi Arabia in their opening match, La Albiceleste went on to back-to-back victories over Mexico and Poland. Argentina’s winning trend continued as they successfully beat Australia by a score of 2-1 in the round of 16.

The Netherlands are not favorites against Argentina. However, De Oranje actually has the potential to present a big surprise even if they are labeled as a team that plays pragmatically.
The Netherlands will do everything possible to kill the Messi movement. With La Pulga’s limited movements, Argentina will struggle.
On the other hand Holland is superior in terms of speed. The strength of Denzel Dumfries and the speed of Cody Gakpo will put Argentina in difficulty.
I expect the Netherlands to win 2-1 and one goal will be scored by Gakpo.

Talking about Argentina today cannot ignore Messi, half of the Albiceleste’s life. Messi will still be the 100% fighting Messi, but Messi needs collective help.
If you rely only on Messi, Van Gaal can kill La Pulga. The pragmatic style of play of the former Ajax architect could put Argentina in difficulty.
Equal individual quality in both teams will add to the toughness of the match, so I predict Holland-Argentina will finish 1-0 in 90 minutes for the Holland team.

Argentina learned a valuable lesson as they lost 1-2 to Saudi Arabia in their opening group stage match. Subsequently, Lionel Messi cs kept shooting and successfully gobbled up victories in every match.
Holland cannot be underestimated by the presence of a talented young star, Codu Gakpo. However, the Netherlands have yet to find a worthy opponent on their way to the knockout stages.
Messi’s magic in Argentina is still a great force that is difficult for the Netherlands to match. I suspect Argentina will emerge victorious with a score of 2-1.
