The Dutch XI is in, and there is a major boost before a ball has even been kicked.
Bart Verbruggen has shaken off injury concerns to start in goal, while captain Virgil van Dijk marshals the backline. Liverpool fans will spot a familiar trio too, with Cody Gakpo and Ryan Gravenberch joining their skipper in the starting XI.
For a side dreaming of a deep World Cup run, having Verbruggen fit and available is a huge early win.
Netherlands XI: Bart Verbruggen (GK); Denzel Dumfries, Jan Paul van Hecke, Virgil van Dijk (c), Micky van de Ven; Frenkie de Jong, Ryan Gravenberch, Tijjani Reijnders; Crysencio Summerville, Cody Gakpo, Donyell Malen
