FC Twente - Vitesse betting tips and odds

Vitesse will give FC Twente a run for their money and there is no doubt about it. However, at 2.55 odds on home win in this match, we still recommend backing the hosts.

Vitesse are heading into a difficult fight, but it’s far from hopeless. They may need to bring their best, but the match can go any way at this point. The odds of an away win are 2.85 right now, which means the favourites are far from clear.

FC Twente completed a rather routine away victory at Willem II in the previous round, though points in an away game are always valuable. They took an early lead and transitioned it into a narrow but satisfying victory which most bookies saw coming.

If the last performance we saw from Vitesse is of any indication, their form is not what we thought it would be. Even though they played against FC Groningen as hosts, they suffered a 1:3 loss at the hands of a relatively weaker team.

Vitesse netted 9 goals in the last three away games, implying a very strong attack-minded performance even as visitors.

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

Kik Pierie, Wout Brama, Jody Lukoki will all have to sit this one out due to injuries, leaving the home team’s lineup in a weakened state. They still have an advantage according to betting prices, but it may not be as notable as it would have been otherwise.

Though a Home Win seems like a sure bet here, we would advise securing it additionally with a Draw No Bet. FC Twente have been known to lack consistency at times, so removing the possibility of a draw is well worth reducing the odds to 1.62.
