DUBLIN, July 10: Holland and the United Arab Emirates chase the final qualifying place for the 2007 World Cup on Monday with the Dutch confident of edging past their Gulf opponents in the ICC Trophy fifth-place playoff.

The ICC Trophy holders lost their crown and failed to qualify directly for the World Cup in the Caribbean after losing two Group ‘B’ matches to Canada and Scotland last week.

However, if Holland lose to the UAE, they would not receive that money for cricket development.

Elsewhere on Monday, Namibia and Denmark face each other to decide who finishes seventh.
