Heracles - VVV-Venlo betting tips and odds

It’s easy to point out Heracles 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.

With a price of 5.75 on an away win among most online sportsbooks, it’s clear VVV-Venlo will likely not fare well against Heracles. Even a draw seems to be too optimistic for the away team.

Heracles managed to hold the line against FC Emmen throughout the first half of their previous away game. They didn’t have nearly as much luck in the second, however, and their defence crumbled against the superior opposition, which all resulted in a 3:1 defeat.

The top online bookmakers priced an away win in VVV-Venlo’s previous away match win at 6.50, marking it as borderline impossible. As such, no one was surprised when they fell behind in the first half and went on to lose the match to Sparta Rotterdam 2:0.

Experts have pointed at Heracles’s defence as their biggest issue at the moment. They conceded 6 goals over the last 3 Eredivisie games.

VVV-Venlo’s home stadium have seen a lot of conceded goals recently – 6 in the last 3 games, to be exact. Considering they don’t have home-field advantage this time, most online sportsbooks are giving rather short odds on Over markets.

Surprisingly enough, the hosts already lost to VVV-Venlo once this season. This came as a bit of an upset, to say the least, considering they are widely believed to be the stronger team.

This match is notable for the number of injuries reported prior by both sides. On one hand, the hosts will have to make do without Navajo Bakboord, Tim Breukers, Teun Bijleveld, Rohat Agca. On the other, the visitors will not be able to count on Roy Gelmi, Simon Janssen, Meritan Shabani. Both are in a precarious state, but you should take the importance of these players to the respective strategies before putting down a stake.

If you’re feeling confident, a Draw/Home wager in the Half Time/Full Time market is the way to go. It’s a fairly risky move, but likely the best way to get some value out of the match this Friday.
