The Netherlands were almost qualified for the next year's finals when they took a two-goal lead away to Montenegro on Saturday evening, with Memphis Depay netting a brace in Podgorica. However, two goals from Montenegro in the final eight minutes saw the points shared in a 2-2 draw. Which resulted in a must-win situation for the Netherlands in their upcoming match.

Holland is top of Group G, with two points leading in both Turkey and Norway. A win would ensure Van Gaal's team finish at the top of the table. While a draw would secure first if Turkey fails to overcome Montenegro on the same night. 

The Netherlands is most likely to make no changes to the team as they have their squad fit and have no players on the suspension list.

Norway, on the other hand, was provided with a dent in their dream of finishing first or second on Saturday. As they were held to a 0-0 deadlock by Latvia.

Solbakken's side can still finish top or second in Group G, though, and would be confirmed in the top two with a victory on Tuesday, while a draw would be enough if Turkey loses to Montenegro.

Injuries- Haaland is unavailable to join his national team due to a troublesome hip problem.
