Ronald Koeman&rsquo;s men are currently level on points with Poland but have a game in hand. The match against Malta gives Netherlands a golden opportunity to pull clear in the group with another victory.<\/p><p>After a shaky September campaign, where they dropped points in a 1&ndash;1 draw against Poland and nearly threw away a two-goal lead against Lithuania, the Dutch will aim to reassert their dominance. A hard-fought 3&ndash;2 win in Kaunas helped restore some calm, but Koeman knows his side must have more control and composure away from home if they are to seal qualification early.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Heading to the next World Cup qualifiers! &#9889;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NothingLikeOranje?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#NothingLikeOranje<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/jBi7mhKrTk\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/jBi7mhKrTk<\/a><\/p>&mdash; OnsOranje (@OnsOranje) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OnsOranje\/status\/1975216047419711501?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>October 6, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Malta vs Netherlands Best Bets<\/h2><figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Bets<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Moneyline<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Moneyline<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Full Time Result<\/td><td>Malta: +5000, Netherlands: -2000<\/td><td>Draw: +1450<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Draw No Bet<\/td><td>Malta: +3300<\/td><td>Netherlands: Not available<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Total Goals<\/td><td>Over 3.5: -145<\/td><td>Under 3.5: +105<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Malta to Win and Both Teams to Score<\/td><td>Yes: +5500<\/td><td>No: +4500<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Netherlands to Win and Both Teams to Score<\/td><td>Yes: +240<\/td><td>No: -275<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure><p>(Odds via&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-BetMGM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>BetMGM<\/a><\/strong>)<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Malta vs Netherlands Preview<\/h2><p>The spotlight once again falls on Memphis Depay, who continues to be a record-breaking figure for the Oranje. His brace in the previous match took him to 51 international goals, making him the all-time leading scorer for the Netherlands. However, he might not start in this match due to ongoing fitness issues.<\/p><p>On the other hand, Malta enter this fixture seeking damage control. They remain bottom of Group G with just two points from five matches. Facing Netherlands will test Malta&rsquo;s defensive structure to the limit. Malta have lost all six of their previous encounters against the Netherlands, conceding an average of five goals per match.<\/p><p><strong><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/england-mens-football-fixtures-october-upcoming-games-england-national-football-team\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>England Men&rsquo;s Football Fixtures for October: What Are the Upcoming Games for England National Football Team?<\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Malta vs Netherlands Over\/Under Predictions<\/h2><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-betmgm-sportsbetting-us-en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Over 3.5 Goals @ -145 as per BetMGM<\/a><\/strong><\/h3><p>The gulf in class is obvious between the two sides. The last meeting finished Netherlands 8&ndash;0 Malta, and Koeman&rsquo;s side have kept the goals flowing in qualifiers, scoring 12 goals across their last three. Malta&rsquo;s back line has struggled against quality opposition. With the Dutch chasing top spot here, they will be relentless in attack. That points strongly to four or more total goals in this match.<\/p><p>\n\n\n            <div class=\"MvpBookmakerTable\" >\n                                                            <div
