PSV - FC Groningen betting tips and odds

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

From the current viewpoint, the situation is unambiguous. Considering the strength of PSV and the 21.00 odds given to FC Groningen to win, it is easy to see that a win for the visiting team would be a remarkable upset.

PSV thought they could pull off a major surprise in the last Eredivisie round. They were leading at the halftime of a very difficult trip but could not hold onto the lead for the full 90 minutes and had to settle for a Feyenoord daw.

FC Groningen are coming off from an unexpected 1:1 draw in the previous round of Eredivisie. At odds of 5.80, no one expected them to win – especially not after they fell behind in the first half. At those odds, even a draw can be counted as a success.

No one has been able to get past PSV’s defence on their home turf for at least three consecutive matches which is a good testament of strength for their back line.

FC Groningen can’t really boast a great record when it comes to playing as visitors. They conceded upwards of 5 goals in their most recent 3 away games. Considering they’re heading into another away game, that’s cause for concern.

Despite the 18.00 price for a home win, the hosts lost their previous match against FC Groningen. However, it’s important to keep in mind that they were the visitors in that bout.

The visitors have to contend with several injuries. Laros Duarte, P. Abraham, Nordin Musampa, Luciano Valente are the players that will be missing, which makes the FC Groningen lineup somewhat weaker than usual. This is made far worse because they were considered undergods going in either way.

To balance out this match, we suggest taking a -1.5 Asian Handicap on the obvious favourites in this game. This should increase your returns substantially while still keeping things relatively risk-free.
