Go Ahead Eagles - Sparta Rotterdam betting tips and odds

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

Things are looking problematic for the visiting side. They are going up against a stronger team which also has a home pitch advantage. Victory is still within reach – they’ll just have to work harder than usual to get it.

While Go Ahead Eagles’s previous loss will hurt their Eredivisie standings, it shouldn’t have affected their confidence too much. After all, they were fighting against overwhelming odds as visitors, so the narrow 1:0 loss against FC Groningen isn’t exactly devastating.

In their previous outing, Sparta Rotterdam didn’t have much of a chance despite the home-field advantage. They were up against Ajax, a far stronger team, who snagged a lead in the first half and strolled their way to a 0:1.

The first step Go Ahead Eagles need to make to improve is to shore up their defences. With more than 5 goals conceded over the last 3 matches, it seems to be the main aspect of play holding them back.

In terms of head-to-head stats, the closest point of reference right now is from last season when Go Ahead Eagles walked away with a decisive victory. This is an entirely new campaign but most top online bookies are still expecting the match to end in their favour.

Though the odds are against the visitors, at least they’ll be in a position to put up as much of a fight as possible. All of their lineup is accounted for in this match, with no issues from suspensions or injuries.

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