NEC - Feyenoord predictions

It would take a small miracle for the hosts to get to a stalemate this match, let alone win somehow. A quick look at the 5.58 price for a home win should be enough to tell you that, though.

We are likely going to see Feyenoord triumph this Saturday, though NEC do have a fighting chance. Maybe the home field advantage will be enough to spur them into a surprise draw or victory, though it’s not a probable outcome.

Most Eredivisie betting odds saw NEC winning their previous bout as the most likely outcome, but things didn’t turn out as planned. In fact, the favourites fell behind early in the game’s runtime, and never quite managed to pull it back. Finally, they had to settle for a narrow 1:2 defeat, which isn’t a great result at home.

The previous Eredivisie encounter could not have gotten much better for Feyenoord who were heavily favoured to claim a victory anyway. They fully delivered as well, having taken an early lead and turned it into a 2:0 triumph.

The fact that they’re playing as visitors doesn’t seem like much of a hindrance for a team like Feyenoord. In fact, their previous 3 away games were crowned by more than 5 total goals, so we can be sure that their attackers won’t shy away.

NEC are 5 points behind a Europa League qualifying spot. It’s very early in the season to predict how the standings will change, but betting predictions don’t seem to be overly optimistic about NEC moving up above their current 12th spot.

There will be more than enough matches for Feyenoord to improve their standings and join the European fight. They will be keen to do it as soon as possible, however, and a win against NEC would surely help them.

Before assuming the favoured visitors will win, keep in mind that their lineup has been altered due to several injuries. Calvin Stengs, Bart Nieuwkoop, Santiago Giménez, Hugo Bueno will all be missing for various reasons, leaving the coach with a shorter lineup than usual.

We’re positive this match is going the visitors’ way but going for a simple result bet won’t net you a significant profit. As such, an HT/FT Away/Away wager is a great way to increase the odds to 2.50 with very little risk involved.
