Vitesse - Sparta Rotterdam predictions

The visitors are aware of the challenge that awaits them. To come out on top against Vitesse on their own field would be a major achievement, and it is always a tough task.

The visitors are fully aware of the challenge that lies ahead. A win against Vitesse on their home field would be a significant achievement, and it is never an easy task.

Vitesse managed to put up a fight in the first 45 minutes of their previous Eredivisie match but will have been pretty disappointed to have ended up losing the match AZ Alkmaar even though they were always the underdogs in this particular matchup.

Sparta Rotterdam are coming on the back of top-notch performance in their recent home game against Fortuna Sittard in which they won the game 4:0. Better yet, they were in the lead for most of the match, which only makes the victory more decisive.

Looking over the home team’s recent record, we can see a worrying trend. They’ve conceded more than 5 goals over the past 3 matches alone, indicating problems in their defensive lineup.

Sparta Rotterdam fans have a lot of cause for concern – with 6 concessions in their latest 3 away games, their track record seems to indicate a tendency to underperform in away games.

It’s already round 28, and the end of the season is dangerously close. This match will be one of Vitesse’s last real shots at getting out of the relegation zone before it’s too late.

Earlier in the season, Vitesse lost an away game against Sparta Rotterdam, though it was with a relatively small goal difference. Most betting predictions agree that things will go differently this time, especially with the 2.67 odds for a home win in mind.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 1.86, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
