FC Emmen - Go Ahead Eagles betting tips and odds

The home team are slightly stronger as far as most online bookies are concerned, but the difference is by no means insurmountable. Both a stalemate and a victory for Go Ahead Eagles are still on the table.

Given their reputation for perseverance, we expect Go Ahead Eagles to give their best effort in this match.

FC Emmen’s latest away game at FC Groningen was an inconclusive stalemate which persisted throughout the runtime. Considering they were visitors playing against a much stronger team, however, the 1:1 result isn’t too bad for FC Emmen.

With a home win priced at 2.02, not many Go Ahead Eagles supporters had much hope of them winning the home game they played last week. However, they took their opponents by surprise, scored early, and proceeded to record an HT/FT victory with a decisive goal difference.

The last 3 times we saw FC Emmen play as the away team, they had serious issues stopping the ball from getting into their net, conceding more than 5 times. Hopefully, they’ll have better luck at home.

Our confidence that Go Ahead Eagles will manage to hold their composure in an away game is shaky. They have over 5 concessions on record in their latest 3 visiting games alone.

With a loss to Go Ahead Eagles on the record, the home team’s status of clear favourites is brought into question. They lost a Eredivisie match earlier in the season, which came as a surprise to bookies and punters alike.

Before going for any betting predictions, we need to make note of the overall high number of prior injuries. Both sides have been hit: Jeff Hardeveld, Lorenzo Burnet, Rui-Jorge Mendes, Mart Lieder, Maikel Kieftenbeld, Météhan Guclu, Oussama Darfalou for the hosts, and Bas Kuipers, Enric Llansana, Oliver Valaker Edvardsen for the visitors. Needless to say, this may impact the teams’ performance.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.80. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
