Going back, Holland has had three 0-0 games in the their last three friendlies, only 1 goal for and allowed in the their last 4 games. USA can't get it done in Europe plus they are missing some players. The dutch are explosive and any day they can wake up and put up 7 on the board but going with the cautious nature of the game, I think a 1-0 or 2-0 can be very probable.
 
For Germany and Argentina this the only real test before the World Cup, yeah they have a couple more friendlies scheduled but those will serve only as warm ups for the teams. This here match is for real, it will have the intensity of a competitive match. A defeat for either team will be majorly analyse by every body. All it takes is an early goal and the match will open up. Playing in Munich, Germany obviously has the advantage, and while their qualification campaign at home was impeccable their really wasn't any team of the caliber of Argentina. But there lies the problem, because los ches may have the big names and figures but they don't have a team. Yeah any of the stars can shine in an indiviual effort but as a whole I think they are very capable of losing.
 
I have no idea on this stuff either so soccer guys needs to pick us winners. Obviously having money on the USA game is always a bit more fun but that means nothing when it comes to making money.
 
I'm gonna vote for the Netherlands/USA UNDER for a couple reasons. First, it's on ESPN2, so I'll get to sweat it out properly. Second, I think RJ's spot-on about the Netherlands really not accomplishing anything in Friendlies lately and the U.S. not being even remotely a good travelling team. The first goal is probably going to tighten their play for the rest of the match, making 1-0 seem like a tasty outcome to bet on too at +450 (Intertops). Yay Under!
 
As a rule I hate the idea of betting on friendly games.

Of the three proposed I would go with Germany ML.
Argentina under Maradona are a poor team and will have to better than in World Cup qualifying to avoid defeat here.
