Is there a clear favorite in the <a href="https://www.archysport.com/2022/01/what-is-the-policy-of-the-powerful-musashifuchu-senior-who-does-not-teach-too-much-to-play-an-active-part-in-high-school-baseball-full-count/” title=”What is the policy of the powerful Musashifuchu senior who "does not teach too much" to play an active part in high school baseball? | Full-Count”>WBSC second round matchup between the United States and the Netherlands? Good question which deserves a detailed answer in our forecast. According to direct matches, the total advantage is with the North Americans (6-0). So, it makes sense that bookmaker odds reflect existing situations.
UNITED STATES
The United States entered the tournament as one of the leading contenders for the final title. However, during the break, they regressed noticeably. The team composition remains one of the best in the arena. However, current conditions are not very optimistic. Last night, the representatives of North America suffered a very unpleasant defeat against the Puerto Ricans (0:1), recording six hits. Over the distance, however, Mike Scioscia’s team must catch up. Especially since the group is quite simple.
The Netherlands
The Netherlands is also not inclined to settle for minor successes, which motivates constant progress. Last fall, the team won bronze at the European Championship, but they didn’t stop there. Yesterday, the Europeans defeated the Panamanians in an uncompromising fight (9:8), securing an impressive advantage at the end of the first four sets (7:3). However, it is unlikely that the “Tricolores” will continue to please with such impressive offensive efficiency. Especially considering there won’t be any easy walks.
Editor’s prediction
In the final part, we attest that the meeting must take place in an open manner. Teams desperately need to win convincingly to build confidence in their own abilities, and we expect them to delight fans with a bright fight with an unexpected outcome. The total plus is the priority choice for the match.
