New Netherlands manager Frank de Boer takes charge of his first competitive fixture on Sunday as the Oranje travel to Zenica to face Bosnia & Herzegovina.

De Boer oversaw a defeat to Mexico in a friendly earlier this week in what was the former Dutch defender's first game since replacing Ronald Koeman in September.

The squad was put through its paces in Zeist on Saturday, including captain Virgil van Dijk, Liverpool teammate Georginio Wijnaldum, and in-form Sevilla striker Luuk de Jong.

The Dutch sit second in Uefa Nations League A Group 1 behind Italy on three points while Bosnia have only a draw against the Azzurri from their two games.

Above is a photo gallery of the Netherlands squad training as they prepare for their third Group 1 match.
