Get to know the teams.
The good news from Basel is that, in Andries Jonker and Laurent Bonadei, the Netherlands and France possess two managers who pour scorn on unwritten norms and treat received wisdoms with suspicion.

Preamble
Technically … every team in the group still have a chance of qualify. In more realistic terms, however, this game is a bit of a shootout for reaching the knockout stages because everyone expects England to beat Wales. France will definitely go through as long as they do not lose.
Netherlands need a three-goal win over the French to jump above them in the table. There is certainly the quality within the Dutch side to bang a few in, so this match should be far more enticing than some anticipate.
Kick-off: 8pm BST.
