Netherlands vs Belgium live stream and match preview
Looking for a Netherlands vs Belgium live stream? You're in the right place – FourFourTwo has all the info you need.
A draw will be enough for the Netherlands to book a place in the Nations League finals, but neighbours Belgium will be looking to spoil the party in Amsterdam.
Louis van Gaal’s side have the highest points total of any League A team at 13, following a 2-0 win in Poland on Thursday.
Cody Gakpo and Steven Bergwijn were on target in that game to earn the Oranje their fourth win in five matches as their impressive form continues.
Van Gaal is yet to suffer defeat since taking over as boss last summer in the wake of a disappointing last 16 defeat to the Czech Republic at Euro 2020.
His side are on a 14-match unbeaten run since then and have been scoring freely, netting 13 goals in their five matches so far.
Belgium are the only team that can stop them from taking top spot, but they must win handsomely in Amsterdam to do so.
Victory would send the Red Devils joint-top on 13 points, but head-to-head is the first tiebreaker and they lost their first meeting with the Netherlands 4-1 in June.
Since then, Roberto Martinez’s side have won three and drawn one, most recently a comfortable 2-1 victory over Wales on Thursday.
Both these sides will be looking to finish their Nations League campaigns with a flourish to bolster confidence ahead of the World Cup 2022.
The Netherlands are in Group A with hosts Qatar, Senegal and Ecuador, while Belgium share Group F with Canada, Morocco and Croatia.
Van Gaal’s Netherlands World Cup 2022 squad is taking shape, but he has had to deal with some injury issues.
Teun Koopmeiners was stretchered off against Poland after being knocked out, while the manager said after the game that Memphis Depay ‘has a muscle injury and it’s possible he won’t play our next game’.
Frenkie de Jong was only taken off ‘as a precaution’, though, and could feature against Belgium.
Kevin de Bruyne shone for the Red Devils against Wales and is guaranteed a spot in the Belgium World Cup 2022 squad.
But other places are still up for grabs, and teenage debutant Zeno Debast caught Martinez’s eye against the Welsh.
“I don't think I have ever seen a player make a better debut than him at the mere age of 18! I was looking at him thinking: 'This can't be his first game',” he said.
Jason Denayer earned a call-up for the September games despite not having a club since leaving Lyon this summer, while Romelu Lukaku is out injured.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Nations League football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
