The Netherlands and Japan sit on top of the Group E bracket with 3-points each while the Dutch have a one goal advantage. The will be the second meeting between the Oranje and Blue Samurai in the last 10 months with the Dutch winning their last encounter 3-0. The Netherlands hold the all time edge against Asian squads winning seven out of eight matches with one draw. It is still uncertain whether Arjen Robben will make his first start of the 2010 finals after missing the first round match vs Denmark due to a hamstring injury he suffered against Hungary before the tournament started. "It's quite something that he trained with us today (Friday)," said coach Bert Van Marwijk. "But we have to wait and see how he responds tomorrow."

Japan will step on the pitch full of confidence after defeating Cameroon 1-0 in their opening round match and having playing the Dutch squad numerous times, knows exactly what to expect. For Japan the game play is simple, never stop running and try to frustrate the Netherlands. "If we don't put more pressure on the Dutch side than we did against Cameroon, we will let them pass the ball around at will," said Japan manager Takeshi Okada this week. Japan ran approximately 110 kilometers (68 miles) vs Cameroon in the high altitude of the Free State province and should be able to run even further in the lower altitude of Durban.
