The Netherlands and Morocco were tipped by many pundits as value bets to go all the way in the 2026 World Cup and their clash in the early hours of Tuesday morning is arguably the pick of the last-32 ties . Both nations arrived at this tournament in fine form and performed with credit against some tough opponents during the group stage.
Each team featured in a penalty shootout during the knockout rounds four years ago and it would be no surprise to see this contest settled via spot-kicks. We can certainly envisage it being a close encounter, so 2/1 for a draw at the end of normal time is our first Netherlands vs Morocco prediction.

Form Guides
Netherlands form guide
The Dutch were only defeated on penalties by eventual champions Argentina in the quarter-finals four years ago and then reached the semis at Euro 2024 , so hopes were high in the Netherlands World Cup 2026 camp of another bold showing this summer. After kicking off their Group F campaign with a 2-2 draw against Japan , Ronald Koeman ’s side romped to an impressive 5-1 victory over Sweden before beating Turkey 3-1 .
Koeman understandably declared himself “happy” with how things are going, saying: “I wanted first place in the group, and we finished that way.” Having only featured as a late substitute in game one, Brian Brobbey has made a big impression in two subsequent starts, netting three times . The Sunderland striker is now on the radar of some of Europe’s biggest clubs after really catching the eye with his direct and aggressive approach.
For those seeking a decent payout on this match, a BOYLE Sports price boost of 14/1 for Brobbey to bag at least a brace of goals is worth considering in our World Cup tips today.
Morocco form guide
The Atlas Lions got as far as the final four in Qatar and look determined to prove that was no fluke. Morocco were the better team in a high-octane first half when drawing 1-1 with Brazil before beating Scotland 1-0 and then twice coming from behind to see off Haiti 4-2 . Inspirational captain Achraf Hakimi declared: “We’re proud of what we did, but now we need to recover well and get ourselves ready for what’s next.”
Ismael Saibari will be well known to their next opponents, having followed up a fine season with PSV by scoring in all three group-stage games and 11/4 for him to net at anytime again here is tempting. It has also been noticeable how Mohamed Ouahbi ’s men have looked to begin each match at a high tempo, which has led to plenty of early chances at each end.
With that in mind, 4/1 for both teams to score in the first half here is another value pick for our Netherlands vs Morocco betting tips.
