Netherlands seeks victory over Japan, how the teams line up

The Dutch and Japanese national teams will face off in an interesting matchup for Group F at the 2026 World Cup.

The "Tulips" team takes the field with the status of favorites on paper, also supported by historical statistics, as in the past three matches against the Asians they have not lost a single match, recording two wins and a draw.

However, Japan is considered a dangerous opponent that has repeatedly shown that it can make things difficult for any major team thanks to its fast and organized play.

A few minutes before the opening whistle, both coaches have put an end to all dilemmas by announcing the official formations that will take to the field of play.

OFFICIAL FORMATIONS

Netherlands : Verbruggen, Dumfries, Van Hecke, Van Dijk, Van de Ven, Reijnders, De Jong, Gravenberch, Gakpo, Summerville, Malen.

Japan : Suzuki, Ito, Taniguchi, Watanabe, Doan, Sano, Kamada, Nakamura, Kubo, Maeda, Ueda.
