The 7-1 punishment taken by Brazil from Germany will no doubt put the Argentinians on their toes, with the Pumas wanting to avoid being the 2nd South American team KO'd in the semifinals.
Argentina has Di Maria on the sidelines, but things are looking worse for Netherlands, 3 key players being in danger of hitting the stands: De Jong, van Persie, Janmaat.
I think Argentina is the team to beat in this match, despite some fellow tipsters on the web going with Holland. Holland was not all that good against Mexico and Costa Rica, actually they were modest. Argentina can do damage trough individual phases of play, the dutch defense is not that good, with Aston Vila's Ron Vlaar the most experienced man there.
Projected lineups
Holland (Possible, 5-3-2): Cillesen; Kuyt, De Vrij, Vlaar, Indi, Depay; Wijnaldum, Sneijder, Blind; Robben, Van Persie.
Argentina (Possible, 4-2-3-1): Romero; Zabaleta, F Fernández, Garay, Rojo; E Perez, Mascherano; Palacio, Messi, Lavezzi; Higuaín.
I feel Argentina can get past Holland in 90 minutes just like they pulled it off when they met Belgium. One goal should do it, 1-0 is my call.
