Vitesse - FC Twente betting tips and odds

It’s easy to point out Vitesse as the clear favourites, but we wouldn’t call this match completely one-sided. The hosts are definitely more likely to win between the two, but a tie game is another possibility. An away win would be quite a surprise, but we’ve seen bigger upsets.

It’s hard to believe even the most optimistic FC Twente fans are expecting them to triumph at Vitesse this Sunday. It’s a completely one-sided matchup, and the hosts should have no problems steamrolling their opponents.

Vitesse’s latest performance in the Eredivisie left most fans with a sour taste in their mouths. The entire match against SC Heerenveen was rather lukewarm and ended in a 1:0 win for the opposing home team.

Although FC Twente’s defeat in the previous round was a fairly painful 3:0, we can’t say that it was unexpected. They were vastly outmatched by their opponents PSV, who spent the entire match ahead.

A high concessions rate is not a good look to have, and Vitesse have been on a downward spiral when it comes to their defensive performance. With 5 goals conceded over their past 3 games, there’s definite room for improvement.

This match might be a good chance to go for an Under 2.5 or even Under 1.5 Goals bet. Both of FC Twente’s previous two home games lacked any excitement in front of either goal.

Vitesse need to make up a 42_BEHIND_LEADER-point difference if they wish to reach the table leaders and secure a Champions League qualification. Though the season is far from over and their odds of taking three more points this Sunday are decent, they’ll need to work hard to get there.

The two teams last met in the previous season when Vitesse won the clash with a convincing goal difference. Their fans are expecting another clear-cut triumph and the bookmakers tend to agree.

There’s an interesting development over at GelreDome. It seems both teams have been struck hard by injuries. On one hand, Vitesse_INJURIES will not be playing for the hosts. Conversely, FC Twente_INJURIES will all be unavailable on the away side. Both teams will have to deal with limited options.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the Unibet priced at 2.20 odds.
