FC Groningen - SC Cambuur betting tips and odds

With the odds slightly in the hosts’ favour, they have a decent shot at walking away with 3 points. Still, SC Cambuur can pull off both a win or a draw, so the hosts can’t afford to let their guard down.

It would be a minor miracle for SC Cambuur to win at FC Groningen, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 3.25 price on most online sportsbooks.

At 5.50 betting odds, FC Groningen were huge underdogs in their previous Eredivisie outing. That did not stop them from believing they could run out with a point in the bag after a tied first half. However, they failed miserably in doing so, as they stumbled to a disappointing SC Heerenveen defeat.

SC Cambuur are coming on the back of a 0:3 defeat at home, which was painful but hardly unexpected. Not many Eredivisie betting predictions expected them to be able to stand up to Sparta Rotterdam, and they fell behind fairly early.

FC Groningen have been struggling to keep the ball out of their net lately. For instance, their previous 3 Eredivisie matches were marked by more than 5 goals conceded in total.

With 6 goals in their own net over the last 3 matches, SC Cambuur’s defence leaves a lot to be desired.

Looking over the head-to-head statistics for this Eredivisie season, the hosts already recorded a victory over SC Cambuur. This puts them ahead of their opponents, which is reflected in the betting odds.

The odds being what they are, remember that they were priced with various injuries in mind. The hosts reported that Damil Dankerlui, Marin Šverko, Daleho Irandust, Laros Duarte, P. Abraham, Nordin Musampa, Joey Pelupessy will have to sit this one out, while SC Cambuur will have to make do without Maxim Gullit, Jhondly van der Meer, Mimoun Mahi.

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 1.85, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
