Back Van Persie to Score First against Argentina at 7/1 Betting Odds

Netherlands have been exceeding expectations at the tournament finals in Brazil, showing they can outclass their opponents with impressive attacking play as well as grind out results when things do not go according to plan.

Buoyed by the excellent performance against Costa Rica in the quarter-finals, Oranje will be feeling optimistic ahead of the clash with Argentina, who will be without key midfielder Angel Di Maria, albeit with Lionel Messi in the side.

Taking everything into account, Netherlands do seem they can win this tie and qualify for the final, while Robin van Persie can be a good bet to rediscover his scoring form, especially seeing as how Ladbrokes has enhanced the price on RVP to score the first goal to 7/1.
