FC Emmen - Fortuna Sittard betting tips and odds

Though FC Emmen are more likely to win this, an away win would only be slightly surprising. It’s a relatively balanced matchup, which usually means we’ll see some exciting football.

The visitors would need to pull off quite a stunt in order to come out victorious. They are severely outmatched in this outing – the 3.50 away win odds alone should speak volumes.

While the final result of FC Emmen’s previous clash against Vitesse cannot be called a success, it was still a solid performance. They were trailing behind for most of the game but came back for a 2:2 draw before the match ended.

Fortuna Sittard’s home performance against Sparta Rotterdam in the previous round wasn’t spectacular, ending in a 0:0 stalemate. Neither side managed to pull ahead, but Fortuna Sittard can be happier with this outcome considering the balance of power wasn’t in their favour.

FC Emmen gans are hoping for better defensive performance then what they’ve seen in away games. The previous three matches featured 7 conceded goals.

This is the second time we’re seeing these two sides clash this season. The first game went FC Emmen’s way, albeit with a difference of only one goal. Still, such a record makes it easy to see why they’re the favourites this time around.

They may be favoured to win, but the home team are still playing at an extreme disadvantage because a lot of their players suffered an injury recently. Jeff Hardeveld, Rui-Jorge Mendes, Mart Lieder, Maikel Kieftenbeld, Météhan Guclu, Richairo Zivkovic will not be able to play, putting the team in a dangerous situation.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 2.05 odds offered at William Hill.
