The Netherlands host Greece on Friday 13 November at the Johan Cruyff Arena in Amsterdam in League A of the UEFA Nations League. The match kicks off at 8:45 pm CET and is the Netherlands’ penultimate game at this stage.
The Dutch enter the match looking to seal their place in the quarter-finals of the competition next March. The team is coached by Xavi, after finishing as runners-up in the inaugural edition in 2019 and reaching the semi-finals in 2023.
Amsterdam stadium and unbeaten run
The Netherlands’ unbeaten record at the Amsterdam stadium extends to eight matches. In their last appearance there, Cody Gakpo scored a late equaliser against Germany at the start of the campaign, as the two teams shared the points.
The Johan Cruyff Arena, located in the Zuidoost district of Amsterdam, has a capacity of 56,120 spectators. It hosts Ajax and Netherlands matches and is one of the most prominent sports venues in the Netherlands.
Greece buoyed by win over Germany
Greece, meanwhile, enter the match in high spirits after their recent 1-0 win over Germany in Augsburg. That gives them great confidence, meaning the hosts must not underestimate their opponents.
Official tickets usually go on sale about 4 to 6 weeks before the match via the Dutch Football Association’s store. Club card holders and members of official fan associations get priority purchase a few days before sales open to the general public.
Those looking to book seats at the last minute can buy tickets from resale platforms, with programmes that guarantee ticket validity and timely delivery.
