A little over a month after their previous meeting, European heavyweights Germany and the Netherlands collide once again in their Nations League return fixture. 

The initial match-up saw goals aplenty in an entertaining 2-2 draw at the Johan Cruyff Arena and Odds Now's Brad Walker is anticipating a similar return in his 5/1 bet-builder for this one.

Brad Walker's Germany vs Netherlands bet-builder selections

Selection #1 - Germany to win (9/11)

Die Mannschaft haven't lost a home game in normal time since a 3-2 friendly defeat to Turkey in November last year. 

And three of their five matches at the Euros in the summer - a tournament they hosted - also ended in victory.

The only loss came in extra-time at the quarter-final stage, where they came up short in a 2-1 loss to eventual champions Spain in Stuttgart.

In total, Julian Nagelsmann's side have scored 16 goals in the last five matches where they've been listed as the home team. 

Combined with Dutch captain Virgil Van Dijk's absence - the Liverpool centre-back received two yellow cards in his side's 1-1 draw at Hungary on Friday - it's hard to envisage anything other than a Germany win here.

Selection #2 - Both teams to score (8/15)

Having said that, both sides have found the net in three of the hosts' last five fixtures home and away.

The most recent came on Friday evening, where they forced a hard-earned 2-1 away victory against an unfancied Bosnia & Herzegovina side. 

Still not convinced? Well, lets take a closer look at the Netherlands' recent run. 

Both sides have scored in all five of their last outings in all competitions, including the 2-2 draw with their German counterparts in Amsterdam last month. 

Interesentingly, the Dutch have opened the scoring in three of those five matches.

Selection #3 - Deniz Undav to score anytime (16/11)

Undav made his loan spell at Stuttgart permanent this summer and has continued his impressive form in front of goal. 

The 28-year-old already has six goals in 10 matches so far this term and heads into this one having netted a brace against Bosnia last time out. 

He also found the net in the 2-2 draw between these two sides four weeks ago, all of which combines for a strong case to back him getting his name on the scoresheet once again for his country.
