PSV - RKC Waalwijk betting tips and odds

Top bookmakers online have made PSV overwhelming favourites in this match and judging by the available odds it’s hard to see past a comprehensive home win here.

The situation is crystal clear from the current perspective. Given the strength of the home team and the fact RKC Waalwijk are given 19.50 betting odds to win, a conclusion is not difficult to reach. Anything but a home win would be an incredible surprise.

,PSV played at Sparta Rotterdam in the previous round and left quite an impression. The result was positive and their triumph earned – but some questions about their early game performance are still left dangling following a 3:5 and a even-played first half.

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

Experts have pointed at PSV’s defence as their biggest issue at the moment. They conceded 8 goals over the last 3 Eredivisie games.

RKC Waalwijk’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.

PSV need to make up a 37_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 Saturday are decent, they’ll need to work hard to get there.

With just 14_TO_SAFE_ZONE points between them and the relegation zone and a clash with PSV ahead of them, RKC Waalwijk’s prospects this season seem grim going into round 18. Surviving in the Eredivisie is likely their only goal moving forward.

Based on the information available, a Draw/Home in the HT/FT market is a more likely outcome than the 4.60 odds are implying. It’s still a risky bet to take, but it offers strong value.
