The Netherlands have made it to the World Cup Final on three previous occasions (1974, 1978 and 2010) but have never been crowned champions.
A 5-1 win over Sweden last time out had some punters revising their pre-tournament predictions and now expect the Dutch to go far this summer.
They're in pole position to top Group F but can't afford a slip-up against already-eliminated Tunisia if they want to set up a tie with Morocco in Monterrey in the Round of 32.

Tunisia vs Netherlands predictions
Tunisia already know they're heading home after this game, so there's every chance the players' minds will be on a well-earned break.
The Dutch, on the other hand, will not be short of motivation and will need to keep up their momentum if they are to progress past an impressive Morocco side in the Round of 32.
Cody Gakpo and Brian Brobbey both have two goals apiece at this tournament and on current form, you wouldn't bet against either adding to that when facing a Tunisia outfit that has conceded nine in two games.
This one may not be as much of a rout as people expect, though, given the Netherlands' seven goals have come from a cumulative Expected Goals (xG) total of 3.4.
It suggests the Dutch finishing has been above average but probably won't continue in the same vein. That said, Tunisia's nine prior concessions and lack of motivation if they concede early could make for an unsavoury scoreline if heads drop.
Tunisia vs Netherlands score prediction
The Netherlands have too much star quality and firepower for a team like Tunisia at the best of times, never mind when they're on form and feeling confident.
It should be a routine win for the Dutch, who are strong favourites to top the group.
- Prediction: Tunisia 0-3 Netherlands
