RKC Waalwijk - FC Emmen betting tips and odds

Though we can call RKC Waalwijk the favourites in this matchup, FC Emmen are not about to make it easy for them. It’s gearing up to be an exciting match overall, and no outcome can be ruled out at this point.

With the betting odds being what they are, this match could still go either way. Still, the fact that FC Emmen are generally the weaker team makes this match an uphill battle for them.

RKC Waalwijk managed to scrape together a 1:1 draw at the end of their previous Eredivisie showdown at PEC Zwolle , which came as a surprise to many. They were clear underdogs in this away game, so the lead they had at half-time was even more shocking.

FC Emmen are coming on the back of a narrow 0:1 home defeat against AZ Alkmaar. The first half ended inconclusively, but the far stronger visiting team eventually pulled ahead – just like most betting predictions anticipated.

FC Emmen’s home stadium have seen a lot of conceded goals recently – 7 in the last 3 games, to be exact. Considering they don’t have home-field advantage this time, most online sportsbooks are giving rather short odds on Over markets.

RKC Waalwijk are placed 15th in the standings at the moment, with 4 points separating them from the relegation zone. It’s difficult to make any strong statements at the moment since we’re not even past the mid-season yet.

FC Emmen are in position 18th in the league table. It’s still too early to be overly pessimistic, but they’re in a tough spot. Avoiding relegation is getting harder with each passing round.

A string of injuries put a large chunk of the visitors’ lineup out of contention. They’ll have to make do without Glenn Bijl, Marko Kolar, Desevio Payne, Lentini Caciano, Luciano Carty. Given that they were already underdogs anyhow, this puts them at a severely disadvantaged position.

The 2.48 offered for Under 2.5 Goals bets in this match may seem a bit risky considering the market, but they’re well worth it compared to the probability of the outcome. That said, it’s a solid choice for value, but not necessarily safety.
