Sparta Rotterdam - VVV-Venlo betting tips and odds

The odds are definitely leaning in the hosts’ favour, but this match is far from a done deal. Judging by odds alone, VVV-Venlo may yet be able to walk away with a draw or even a surprise victory – though it’s still a longshot.

This one has Home Win written all over it. The hosts are expected to grab a firm hold of the proceedings and VVV-Venlo will be left with slim pickings in this match.

Although Sparta Rotterdam are coming on the back of a harsh 2:0 loss, it would be rather unfair to judge them purely on that performance. They were playing an away game in an extremely difficult matchup against AZ Alkmaar , so they spent most of the match trailing behind.

VVV-Venlo’s latest Eredivisie performance against PSV ended in a harsh 0:2 defeat, though that’s not saying a lot about their current form. They never had much of a shot despite the home-field advantage, and their opponents dictated the pace of the whole game.

VVV-Venlo 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.

Sparta Rotterdam already have a victory over VVV-Venlo on their record. It happened earlier in this running season of the Eredivisie, marking them as the clear favourites for the upcoming showdown.

We recommend taking up William Hill’s offer for a Draw/Home result in the Half Time/Full Time market, priced at 1.57. It’s fairly good for value, but you might want to steer clear if you’re looking for high-probability wagers.
