Vitesse - Sparta Rotterdam betting tips and odds

Though we can call Vitesse the favourites in this matchup, Sparta Rotterdam are not about to make it easy for them. It’s gearing up to be an exciting match overall, and no outcome can be ruled out at this point.

The away team’s chances of winning this Saturday are dubious at best. They are the clear underdogs in a matchup with Vitesse, and the fact that they’re the visiting team isn’t making things any easier.

After a failed attempt last time out, Vitesse will have another chance to improve their goal difference with yet another home game. The hosts were heavily priced to record a convincing win last time out (4.75). From a punter’s point of view, however, it’s still a HT/FT win and that’s what matters.

With a home-field advantage on their side and largely favourable betting odds, Sparta Rotterdam were expected to easily win their previous Eredivisie match against Fortuna Sittard. They indeed won 3:1, but not before failing to gain the upper hand for more than half the game’s runtime.

The hosts have been careful not to let their goalscoring stats slip. They’ve scored more than 5 times during the last 3 matches, indicating consistent offensive results.

Looking over the visitors’ record in away games, it seems they don’t do well when they’re out of the comfort of their home field. They’ve recorded a worrying number of conceded goals in their previous 3 away games – more than 5, to be more precise.

To make things even more difficult for the visitors, they’ve had an unfortunate run of injuries recently. Tim Coremans, Omar Rekik, Younes Namli, Jonathan de Guzmán have all been put out of contention, leaving the team’s coach with a more limited set of options at his disposal.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 1.95, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
