Looking at Group B, surely Holland are already out? They can only match Denmark's points tally which will not be enough as Denmark have a better head to head. Goal difference only comes after head to head results as shown in Group A where Greece progressed ahead of Russia despite having the same amount of points and an inferior goal difference.

The head to head will not count as there will be 3 teams on 3 points. I think if Holland win by 2+ goals will advance.

yea if 3 teams have the same points its goal diff...only if 2 teams on same point it goes head to head........

It's not just goal difference though. It's goal difference between the three tied teams.
A Germany win and a 2+ goals victory for the Dutch and they're through

============
If all games finished 0-0, for example, the teams with the higher co-efficient will go through.
So if England beat Ukraine 2-0, and France beat Sweden 3-2 we will finish higher than France due to our higher co-efficiency ranking.

If Germany beat Denmark, Holland need to beat Portugal by 2 clear goals in order to go through

Fair play count during the group counts before UEFA co-efficient.

No jokes. Even unfairer than drawing lots.
The only time this wouldn't be the case is if both teams are playing each other. Then it would be a penalty shoot out.
