Cody Gakpo has shown flashes of quality in the final third for the Netherlands at Euro 2024 and while his overall shot tally (seven) from three games is on the modest side, the 25-year-old’s accuracy has been of an impressively high standard.

Gakpo managed to find the target with four of seven shots in the group stage and two of those efforts found the net (vs Poland & Austria), in fact, the wide attacker has tested the opposing keeper at least once in each of his three starts at the tournament so far.

The forward’s 57.1% shot accuracy percentage is the highest figure in the Netherlands’ squad and Gakpo’s right foot is reliable enough to lodge at least one shot on target again against Romania on Tuesday.

The Romanians conceded 15 shots on target across their three group matches – a tally that suggests the Netherlands should have sights of goal in Munich. Expect Gakpo to be at the front of the queue when those opportunities are manufactured.

Marius Marin is Romania’s chief enforcer in midfield and though he is walking a suspension tightrope, he is unlikely to take the edge off his tackles in Munich.

The 25-year-old has committed four fouls at Euro 2024 so far, though three of those indiscretions were racked up in one sitting when Romania faced Belgium, and Marin is likely to be just as aggressive against the Netherlands on Tuesday.

In his last 14 competitive appearances for the Tricolorii, Marin committed at least one foul on nine occasions and at least two in seven of the same games, and with Romania expected to cede ground and possession on Tuesday, the hard hitter’s love of a meaty challenge should be on display again.

Yet to commit a foul at Euro 2024, Bah is liable to come under far more defensive scrutiny in this match. He averaged 1.18 fouls per 90 with Benfica in the Portuguese top-flight this season.

Preparing to come into direct competition with Maximilian Mittelstadt during periods of this match. The Germany wing back who has been fouled on nine occasions so far in Euro 2024, winning at least two in every game he has played.

If Bah sits back – he is likely to be the more defensive of the two Danish wing backs – he will come into direct confrontation with Florian Wirtz, who may only have won one foul at Euro 2024 but won 1.02 fouls per 90 with Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga. Should Wirtz be taken off, the equally tricky Leroy Sane is his likely replacement.

Dutch captain Virgil van Dijk hasn’t been at his imperious best at Euro 2024 and the 32-year-old has looked awkward and uncomfortable in his defending more than once at the tournament.

Van Dijk’s feathers were rarely ruffled for Liverpool in last season’s Premier League when the towering centre-half averaged just 0.6 fouls per game across the 2023/24 campaign, however, his foul count has been on the rise in Germany.

The shaky-looking defender committed six fouls across three runouts in the group stage for the Oranje and was collared for a free kick at least once in each of those three fixtures.

Against Austria on matchday three, van Dijk performed with an uncharacteristic nervousness and a haul of three fouls on that occasion suggested that his confidence was starting to wobble.

The timing of his tackles could be tested again by a Romanian frontline that manoeuvres with real intelligence, and van Dijk is a candidate with excellent credentials to foul at least once again.

Attacking midfielder Razvan Marin has been troubling his defences with his well-timed forward surges from deep for Romania and the in-form 28-year-old could be one to watch in the shots market on Tuesday evening.

Marin had two attempts and scored with one of his efforts against Slovakia on matchday three in Group E and that was the second Romanian fixture in a row where the marauding midfielder clocked two shots at goal.

The Cagliari man has mustered five shots at Euro 2024 in total, which puts him top of the pile for Romania for that metric, and Marin also managed to let fly at least twice in six separate matches during the Tricolorii’s Euro qualification campaign.

The Netherlands conceded 36 shots combined in their three group tests and the average distance those strikes were unleashed from was 18.5 yards. That’s the sort of range where Marin tends to do his best work and he could be in position to have at least two more attempts on Tuesday.

You can double up on the same market by including Memphis Depay as another 2+ shots candidate. Depay rarely needs a second invitation to shoot and the attacker has already tried his luck nine times for the Oranje at the Euros, making him the Netherlands’ most productive player for that metric.

Depay launched at least two shots at goal in each of the Netherlands’ three fixtures in Group D, though his lofty output was unsurprising and mirrored his stats from the Dutch Euro qualification campaign.

The 30-year-old – who is his team’s designated free kick taker – played just two of the Netherlands’ qualifiers, though he hit nine shots across that brace of appearances, while Depay also averaged 1.70 and 2.30 shots per game in La Liga and the Champions League for Atletico Madrid last term.

Of the nations that secured passage from the group stage at Euro 2024, only Georgia conceded more shots (71) than Romania (46), so Depay should have chances to let loose at least twice in Munich.
