Excelsior - Feyenoord predictions

Upsets do happen in football and it’s fair to say a home win here would be a definition of the case. Excelsior can count themselves lucky if they avoid getting completely destroyed by Feyenoord in this match.

Feyenoord are expected to win this match, which is made quite clear by the 1.48 odds that can be found with most bookies. The odds are not so short as to make an Away Win bet not worth taking, though, which also implies a certain degree of risk.

The home side is eager to bounce back from the latest Eredivisie disappointment. Excelsior suffered a disappointing NEC away defeat last time out and will be keen to bounce back asap. This match exposed all of their weaknesses right from the start and they need to avoid the same thing happening on Saturday.

Feyenoord have shown to know how to seize an opportunity and keep it going. Just last round they secured a solid 2:0 in a home game against NAC Breda. Being hard favourites with odds of 1.29 on a home win, they easily took the lead in the first half and kept the upper hand until the end.

Due to the absence of injuries or suspensions, both teams will have their complete lineups available for an exciting match.

An Over 3.5 Goals bet may seem somewhat risky, but it’s a lot more probable than usual. It’s a great pick if the betting value is what you’re after, but some might prefer a somewhat safer choice.
