On 2 September 1944 the 11th Army Division halted in Antwerp. Had they pushed just one town further, they would have trapped the German 15th Army on the Beveland Peninsula. It's unlikely that this would modify Market Garden: Montgomery and the British General Staff are not going to hear that they can't end the war by Christmas. But would this have enabled an earlier push into Germany by solving the supply problem sooner, or lead to a quicker liberation of the Netherlands?
