FC Twente - NEC betting tips and odds

This match is somewhat one-sided, but not the most imbalanced clash we’ve seen. The odds are heavily in the hosts’ favour, who will likely walk away with 3 more points to the tally.

From the current viewpoint, the situation is unambiguous. Considering the strength of FC Twente and the 6.50 odds given to NEC to win, it is easy to see that a win for the visiting team would be a remarkable upset.

FC Twente are coming on the back of a decisive away win at FC Emmen. The victory was largely a result of a very strong performance in the second half – the teams were still tied at halftime. This came as a bit of a surprise considering how favourable the betting odds were for FC Twente.

The away team are here after a narrow but impactful defeat at the hands of SC Heerenveen. NEC played that showdown at home and with a fairly decent shot at winning, but ended up locked in a stalemate for most of the match. They eventually conceded the deciding goal in the second half.

FC Twente are on a bit of a streak when it comes to scoring. With more than 6 over their last 3 matches, fans are feeling fairly confident in their goal-scoring ability. Likewise, bookmakers online are fairly confident the Friday match will yield Over 4.5 goals.

Results and standings notwithstanding, NEC have run into some defensive issues in this stretch of the Eredivisie. In the past 3 matches, they allowed more than 5 goals to their opponents, which may be cause for concern for their supporters.

FC Twente already have a victory over NEC on their record. It happened earlier in this running season of the Eredivisie, marking them as the clear favourites for the upcoming showdown.

To make things even more difficult for the visitors, they’ve had an unfortunate run of injuries recently. Robin Roefs, Mathias De Wolf, Calvin Verdonk have all been put out of contention, leaving the team’s coach with a more limited set of options at his disposal.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 1.62, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
