Ronald Koeman will make changes for the Netherlands but Frimpong & Brobbey are worth backing in Bosnia

It may be a dead rubber, but Paul Higham has picked out a 7/18.00 Bet Builder treble as Bosnia host the Netherlands on Tuesday.

We've got a dead rubber on our hands here I'm afraid with the Netherlands already assured of a Nations League quarter-final spot while Bosnia & Herzegovina are rooted to the bottom of the group after a winless campaign.

Ronald Koeman will make a host of changes with their job already done, so I wouldn't expect to see the likes of Virgil van Dijk, Ryan Gravenberch or Frenkie de Jong to feature - but Stefan de Vrij, Matthijs de Ligt, Brian Brobbey and Teun Koopmeiners could all start.

Throw in Edin Dzeko likely starting for Bosnia and the hosts keen to salvage some pride then we do at least have something to go on for Tuesday's Bet Builder.


Leg 1: Brian Brobbey 2+ fouls

Ajax forward Brian Brobbey looks likely to start up front and while he could well get involved in some shots, there's more value in the fouls market, where he's priced at 11/102.11 for 2+ fouls against Bosnia.

Brobbey gave away three fouls in his last international start in Germany and has five multiple foul games this season - two of them coming in the last three outings.

Yes, Bosnia are already out, but there's still pride to play for and we could at least have a hint of a game break out here, which leads onto our second leg.

Leg 2: Ermedin Demirovic 2+ fouls

We'll also take a Bosnian in the same market and plump for Hamburg forward Ermedin Demirovic, who you can back at 10/111.91 for the same 2+ fouls.

The 26-year-old has some decent numbers in this category as well, with multiple fouls in two of his last three games for club and country - and in the last four on the spin when featuring in either international football or in the Champions League.

Just for Bosnia, Demirovic has recorded 2, 3, 1, 3 in terms of fouls given away, so another two-foul outing looks a decent shout.

Leg 3: Jeremie Frimpong 1+ shot on target

After a short cameo in the last game, Jeremie Frimpong looks like a starter too for this one and if so I'll happily back him for 1+ shot on target at 10/111.91.

He's had a shot on target in two of his last three starts, coming from five total shots and he's never been shy in getting forward and having attempts on goal.

In a game that the Dutch could play nice and loose with nothing riding on it, then Frimpong attacking from wing back would fit in quite nicely.
