Andres Noppert will hope to build on his solid form through this World Cup with a place in goal.

Frenkie de Jong has arguably been Netherlands’ best player this tournament, and retains his place in the double pivot alongside Marten de Roon. Daley Blind flanks them to the left, with Denzel Dumfries on the right.

Barcelona have a second representative in this lineup, with Memphis Depay taking his place as one of the two strikers. He is assisted by Cody Gakpo alongside him, while Davy Klaassen starts as the no. 10.
