    The second EURO 2024 semi-final takes place at Borussia Dortmund’s Signal Iduna Park on Wednesday evening.

    The Netherlands and England will compete for a place in Sunday’s final, with one of Spain and France waiting to face the victor of Wednesday’s showdown.

    In this preview, Forebet covers all the key stats, trends and analysis ahead of the clash. Keep reading to find out what our AI algorithm predicts.

    Let’s start by looking at the Netherlands, who came from behind to claim a 2-1 victory over Turkey in the quarter-finals.

    Samet Akaydin put Turkey ahead in the first half, before Stefan de Vrij equalised midway through the second half, with a Mert Muldur own goal sending the Dutch through.

    The Netherlands have now won three of their five matches at Euro 2024, drawing 0-0 with France before losing 3-2 against Austria.

    Impressively, Ronald Koeman’s men have netted nine goals in Germany (1.8 goals per game), scoring over 1.5 goals in four of their five matches.

    As for England, they booked their place in the semi-finals with a penalty shootout victory over Switzerland, following a 1-1 draw between the teams.

    Bukayo Saka cancelled out Breel Embolo’s opener in the 80th minute, before the Three Lions converted all five of their spot kicks to reach the last four.

    Still, Gareth Southgate’s side have only managed to win one of their five Euro 2024 matches in normal time, drawing each of the previous four.

    It is also worth noting that England have scored just five goals in Germany (1 goal per game), keeping only two clean sheets on their way to the semi-finals.

    Head-to-head: The Netherlands have won three of their last four meetings with England, most recently securing a 3-1 victory in the Nations League back in 2019.

    To make matters worse for the Three Lions, they have managed to win just one of their previous nine matches against the Dutch across all competitions.

    Team news: The Netherlands’ Cody Gakpo leads the Golden Boot race with three goals and one assist, with Memphis Depay and Xavi Simons set to join him in attack.

    On the other hand, Southgate switched to three centre-backs last time out, but the England boss could change his formation again with Marc Guehi returning from suspension.

    Considering that England head into the semi-finals on the back of four straight draws, they will likely push the Netherlands all the way on Wednesday.

    Forebet predicts that the Netherlands and England serve up a low-scoring draw, sending the contest to extra time with the possibility of penalties.
