FC Groningen - Heracles betting tips and odds

FC Groningen are expected to win here, but we can’t call such betting predictions completely foolproof. Heracles may surprise us yet, and even a tie game seems a decent possibility from where we’re standing.

Heracles will have little to hope for in this match. 3.75 betting odds on them winning paint a pretty clear picture and from this standpoint there is little doubt in regard to the outcome of this clash.

FC Groningen are coming off from a harsh home defeat (3:1). Considering the difficult match-up against SC Heerenveen and the home-field disadvantage, the result was entirely predictable, even after the draw at half-time.

Heracles’s latest Eredivisie performance against Feyenoord ended in a harsh 1:4 defeat, though that’s not saying a lot about their current form. They never had much of a shot despite the home-field advantage, and their opponents dictated the pace of the whole game.

FC Groningen’s recent performances have raised some questions about their defence. They conceded 7 goals throughout their latest three Eredivisie matches and betting on Over 4.5 seems like a reasonable option.

Maintaining their defences has been a bit of a struggle for Heracles lately. They ended up conceding 5 goals over the 3 most recent matches alone, leaving many fans disappointed.

Although the 2.10 betting odds for a home win show that FC Groningen are the favourites, their track record against Heracles this season is not great. They lost an earlier bout, though it was a rather narrow defeat.

This match is notable for the number of injuries reported prior by both sides. On one hand, the hosts will have to make do without Tomáš Suslov, Jan Hoekstra, Radinio Balker. On the other, the visitors will not be able to count on Janis Blaswich, Elias Oubella, Orestis Kiomourtzoglou, Ismail Azzaoui, Kaj Sierhuis. Both are in a precarious state, but you should take the importance of these players to the respective strategies before putting down a stake.

An Over 3.5 Goals bet is easily the smartest choice for this fixture, consider in the teams’ respective histories. It’s a considerably more probable outcome than it seems, so the 2.50 odds are great value.
