Sparta Rotterdam - Go Ahead Eagles betting tips and odds

With bookies pricing a home win at 2.00, it’s clear the match may yet go either way. The hosts have a distinct advantage, of course, but both a draw and an away win are quite possible outcomes.

Go Ahead Eagles will have little to hope for in this match. 4.00 betting odds on them winning paint a pretty clear picture and from this standpoint there is little doubt in regard to the outcome of this clash.

Sparta Rotterdam have a rather difficult – yet pretty successful – Eredivisie trip behind them. They managed to beat the odds and genera betting predictions and claim a narrow 4.75) after a tied first half.

Even though it ended in a 1:1 home draw, Go Ahead Eagles’s latest Eredivisie performance was surprisingly solid. They were in the lead at half time despite being up against FC Utrecht, who were seen as hard favourites by most bookmakers online.

Go Ahead Eagles may need more consistency in their defense if they want to get anywhere. They have more than 5 conceded goals over their 3 most recent home games, for instance.

The last time we saw these two squads play against each other was earlier in this Eredivisie season. Sparta Rotterdam narrowly lost. With the home-field advantage on their side this time, however, most bookies see them as the favourites.

Fortunately, both teams will be able to give their all this Saturday. Neither squad has been affected by injuries or suspensions, allowing the coaches to work with all the tools at their disposal.

Despite the risks involved, the strongest prediction in terms of value is an HT/FT bet that the hosts will take lead in the second half. It’s as risky as you might expect, though the 1 odds offer a decent return.
