FIFA World Cup 2026, Tunisia vs Netherlands Live Streaming: When And Where To Watch WC Match In India

Last Updated:June 25, 2026, 13:26 IST

Tunisia face already-qualified Netherlands in Group F at World Cup 2026. Check India live streaming details, predicted lineups, recent form, and match prediction.

Tunisia head into Arrowhead Stadium with nothing left to play for except pride, already eliminated from Group F after a difficult and error-prone campaign. The Netherlands, meanwhile, arrive in strong shape, chasing top spot in the group after a dominant and efficient start to their World Cup run.

The contrast couldn’t be sharper. Tunisia have struggled to create chances and have looked vulnerable defensively across both matches, while the Dutch have combined structure with firepower, making them one of the more complete sides in the group stage so far.

The Eagles of Carthage’s early exit has been effectively sealed under the tournament’s head-to-head rule prioritising direct results over goal difference, leaving them without any remaining mathematical route back into contention.

The Netherlands, on the other hand, are already assured of qualification but are expected to maintain intensity. With rotation likely, Ronald Koeman’s side still carry enough depth to dominate proceedings comfortably.

Tunisia vs Netherlands: Predicted Lineups

Tunisia Possible Starting XI

Dahmen; Valery, Rekik, Talbi, Ali Abdi; Skhiri; Slimane, Hannibal; Chaouat, Saad, Mastouri

Netherlands Possible Starting XI

Verbruggen; Dumfries, Van Dijk, Van Hecke, Van de Ven; De Jong, Reijnders, Gravenberch; Malen, Brobbey, Gakpo

Recent Form & Trends

Tunisia – Last 5 Matches

vs Japan (World Cup): Lost 0–4

vs Sweden (World Cup): Lost 1–5

vs Belgium (Friendly): Lost 0–5

vs Austria (Friendly): Lost 0–1

vs Canada (Friendly): Drew 0–0

Tunisia are in a worrying run of form, going five matches without a win and failing to score in four of those. Across their last four competitive and friendly outings, they have conceded 15 goals, highlighting a defensive structure that has repeatedly broken down under pressure. Even against mid-tier opposition in friendlies, they have struggled to generate attacking output, reinforcing a broader issue in the final third.

Netherlands – Last 5 Matches

vs Sweden (World Cup): Won 5–1

vs Japan (World Cup): Drew 2–2

vs Uzbekistan (Friendly): Won 2–1

vs Algeria (Friendly): Lost 0–1

vs Ecuador (Friendly): Drew 1–1

The Netherlands arrive in far stronger shape, particularly in attack. Nine goals in two World Cup matches underline their efficiency and variety going forward. Their 5–1 win over Sweden stood out as a statement performance, with multiple attacking players contributing and the system functioning smoothly across all phases.

While pre-tournament friendlies included mixed results, Koeman’s side have clearly elevated their level when it matters most, showing control against Japan and explosiveness against Sweden.

Tactical Snapshot

This is a classic mismatch in momentum and output. Tunisia’s priority will be containment: staying compact, slowing the tempo, and hoping to avoid early collapse. But sustained pressure from the Dutch front line, combined with midfield control through Frenkie de Jong, makes long-term resistance difficult.

The Netherlands don’t need to force the game, but their attacking depth ensures constant threat from multiple angles, whether through wide play, midfield runs, or direct forward movement.

Prediction

Tunisia’s defensive issues and lack of attacking output make it hard to see them troubling a well-balanced Dutch side, even with rotation.

Tunisia 0–3 Netherlands

Controlled, professional, and likely comfortable for Koeman’s team.
