Both sides will be looking to shake their sides up for rotation after both their respected wins.
Virgil van Dijk is heading on holiday, so he won't be available for Louis van Gaal's side, which means Stefan de Vrij or Matthijs de Ligt will come in to replace him.
As for Wales, Wayne Hennessy may be granted a well-deserved break after his heroics against Ukraine to send Wales to their first World Cup in 64 years.
No sides have any suspensions they need to worry about.
Wales Predicted XI: Ward; Gunter, Mepham, Davies; Roberts, Williams, Morrell, Norrington-Davies; Wilson, James, Johnson
Netherlands Predicted XI: Flekken; De Ligt, Timber, De Vrij; Dumfries, De Jong, Klaassen, Malacia; Berghuis; Depay, Gakpo
