England will have a disadvantage towards the Netherlands that it hasn't had so far at Euro-2024

It is expected that England's fans will be smaller for the first time in the European world when they face the Netherlands in Wednesday's semifinals.

The boys of Gareth Southgate have enjoyed an obvious advantage of fans in all their matches so far, with stadiums all over Germany filled with the English flag.

However, officials expect Ronald Koeman's team to be supported by the majority of the 80,000 crowd in Dortmund, with a 60-40 split in favour of the Dutch.

The Dutch have already scored an early victory after it has become known that at least half of Dortmund's famous Summer Home will return to orange.

U n EFA has assigned 50 percent of the area to Westphalenstadion, known for its powerful noise, to fans of the Netherlands, and the rest will be sold in general.

Officially, the two countries are assigned out of 8,000 tickets, with 1,500 others sold to England's opponents.

The Dutch expect their 80,000 supporters to make the relatively short trip. A repeat of England's 40,000 fans traveling to Dusseldorf for the quarterfinals is possible, with both groups of fans competing for seats.
