Rob Page may deploy his 3-4-3 formation. Chris Mepham may return in the defense alongside Chris Gunter and Ben Davies.
Gareth Bale might be rested and come in the second half. Harry Wilson might start at the right wing. Brennan Johnson might replace Kieffer Moore and begin at the left wing.

Netherlands Probable Lineup
Louis Van Gaal has been handed an injury concern before the Wales clash. Tim Krul took a knock in training. He will be unavailable for the rest of the Nations League fixtures this month.
Van Gaal may rest some of his players, like Virgil Van Dijk. Stefan de Vrij should replace him. De Ligt may come in for Nathan Ake.
We see no change in the midfield. Depay and Gakpo should be upfront in a 3-4-1-2 formation.

On the other hand, the Netherlands is flying under the reign of Louis Van Gaal. They are on a 10-match unbeaten run. They destroyed Belgium by 1-4 goals in the Nations League opener in Brussels. Netherlands will hope to display a similar performance against Wales on Wednesday.
The Oranje defeated Denmark by 4-2 goals and drew 1-1 with Germany in March friendlies. We don’t see them losing against Wales tonight. We say Wales 1-2 Netherlands.
