The Netherlands can clinch top spot in World Cup Group F tonight with a win against already eliminated Tunisia.
Ronald Koeman’s men have taken four points from games with Japan and Sweden, an impressive return in one of the more difficult pools at the tournament.
Tunisia have had a dreadful World Cup.
Their opening game hammering by Sweden prompted the sacking of Sabri Lamouchi but Herve Renard’s appointment on a short-term deal failed to inspire the North Africans, who were subsequently thrashed 4-0 by Japan.
