Netherlands are the leaders in Group G, with 10 points from four games, and while a win against Malta would not mathematically guarantee qualification for next summer's World Cup, it would make it an extremely likely prospect.
Malta, meanwhile, are pretty much doomed, sitting bottom of the group with two points from five games. Only a win would keep them mathematically alive, but even then it's nigh-on impossible to see them winning their remaining two games while the other results fall their way as well.
This is the second time these sides will have met in the group. The first ended in an 8-0 win for the Netherlands – are we in for another drubbing?
