Virgil van Dijk and Frenkie de Jong have left the Dutch camp
Netherlands take on Bosnia-Herzegovina tonight with their place in the Nations League quarter-finals secured.
A 4-0 victory over Hungary last week secured second place in League A3, so manager Ronald Koeman may look to rotate his team for what is essentially a dead rubber.
Two players who will not feature are Virgil van Dijk and Frenkie de Jong, who both left the squad camp on Monday.
"For both Frenkie and Virgil it is better for them to leave the training camp at this moment," Koeman told reporters.
"That decision was taken on medical grounds, with of course the interest of the players coming first."
Bosnia, meanwhile, are licking their wounds after being thumped 7-0 by Germany in their heaviest-ever defeat.
TV channel: In the UK, the game will not be televised.
Live stream: Fans can catch the contest live online via the Viaplay International YouTube channels. Kick-off is at 7.45pm GMT.
