-----------------------------------------------------------------
Netherlands
The Netherlands do not have any major injury issues getting into this contest, and Ronald Koeman should be able to field his full strength line up. The Oranje are likely to shape up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Bart Verbruggen in goal.
Denzel Dumfries and Nathan Ake are likely to be deployed as the full-backs. They will look to help out defensively and join in during attacking transitions. Virgil van Dijk will start at the heart of the defence alongside Micky van de Ven.
As for the midfield unit, Jerdy Schouten will start alongside Joey Veerman. They will look to provide defensive cover to the side and break up opposition attacks. Tijjani Reijnders will start as the central attacking midfielder here, and he will look to create goalscoring opportunities in the final third.
Xavi Simons and Cody Gakpo will start in the wide areas. They will look to add goals and creativity to the side. Finally, Memphis Depay will lead the line for the Netherlands against England.
England
Marc Guehi has already served his one-match suspension, while Jude Bellingham has been handed deferred suspension. So, England will be able to field their key players for this game. The Three Lions do not have any major injury worries either.
England will shape up in a 4-3-3 formation, with Jordan Pickford in goal. Kyle Walker and Kieran Trippier will be deployed as the full-backs. They will look to help out at both ends of the pitch here. John Stones will start alongside Marc Guehi at the heart of the defence.
Declan Rice will start as the defensive midfielder here, and he will look to protect the back four and break down opposition attacks. Meanwhile, Jude Bellingham and Kobbie Mainoo will add control and drive to the side alongside him. Finally, Harry Kane will lead the line for England against the Netherlands, with Bukayo Saka on his right and Anthony Gordon on his left.
Netherlands possible starting lineup:
Verbruggen; Dumfries, De Vrij, Van Dijk, Ake; Schouten, Reijnders; Malen, Simons, Gakpo; Depay
England possible starting lineup:
Pickford; Walker, Stones, Guehi; Saka, Mainoo, Rice, Trippier; Bellingham, Foden; Kane
Prediction: Netherlands 2-1 England (after extra time)
While each game sees a fresh page written, England's history against their Dutch counterparts has been littered with defeats: of all nations they have faced more than 20 times to date, only versus Brazil do they have a lower win-rate (27%). That trend could continue in the Euro 2024 semi-finals, as the Oranje's talented attackers are starting to click and will surely punish another tame Three Lions performance. If Southgate's side cannot improve, they are set to miss out on the final.
