Feyenoord - FC Groningen betting tips and odds

Top bookmakers online have made Feyenoord overwhelming favourites in this match and judging by the available odds it’s hard to see past a comprehensive home win here.

The current perspective makes the situation straightforward. Given the superiority of Feyenoord and the 15.00 odds given to FC Groningen to win, it is evident that a victory for the visiting team would be a shocking surprise.

Last round saw Feyenoord take an early lead against Fortuna Sittard and maintain the momentum up until that last whistle. The match-up was highly favourable, of course, but the squad might be able to keep that same momentum going against FC Groningen.

With 4.20 odds to win and home-field advantage, FC Groningen were clearly likely to win their previous Eredivisie match before kick-off. The game went about as expected – they took an early lead and kept at it until they eventually won 3:0.

Feyenoord have a reputation for consistently scoring high, especially in the past few matches. Records show more than 5 goals scored in total over their previous 3 outings, which is a fairly strong result.

The away team’s defensive record is slipping. They’ve conceded more than 5 times in their previous 3 Eredivisie engagements. This, at least, points to this match as a decent choice for something like an Over 5 Goals bet.

This is the second time we’re seeing these two sides clash this season. The first game went Feyenoord’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.

The odds being what they are, remember that they were priced with various injuries in mind. The hosts reported that Justin Bijlow, Patrik Wålemark, Sebastian Szymański, Quinten Timber will have to sit this one out, while FC Groningen will have to make do without P. Abraham, Nordin Musampa, Mads Bech Sørensen, Oliver Antman.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 1.54, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
