Dutch Eredivisie
2024-11-30 - Groningen vs Willem II
A Sports Betting Pick by ArmchairPunter
Football : Netherlands: Eredivisie
Venue: Euroborg
Saturday 30th November 2024, 1745hrs
Groningen dropped down the Dutch Eredivisie table to 15th place and just one point above the relegation play-off spot following a heavy 5-0 thrashing away from home at PSV in last weekend’s action.
That poor result now makes it seven losses within their last eight matches in the Dutch top flight for Groningen but it should be noted that five of these recent seven defeats were incurred away from home.
Results on home soil at their Euroborg ground have been a little more encouraging though as Groningen have won twice, drawn twice but also lost twice so far this season but nevertheless, these results at least give the hosts a glimmer of a chance of getting something out of this upcoming encounter.
Willem II have picked up four points from their last two matches overall in the Dutch Eredivisie thanks to a 2-1 win away from home at AZ Alkmaar along with last weekend’s 2-2 draw at home with NAC Breda.
However, Willem II have also posted a mixed bag of results so far in this Dutch top flight season as the visitors hold an overall record of 4-4-5 15/14 so far this term which includes winning, drawing and losing in equal measure on their travels.
An overall away record of 2-2-2 7/7 also gives Willem II a reasonable chance of gaining something from this upcoming trip to Euroborg but having collected just two wins from their previous 20 outings on the road, the straight win markets should be avoided here!
The Betting Verdict
The draw has featured in two of the last three meetings and another stalemate may well be on the cards in this encounter as well.
The Pick :
Groningen 1-1 Willem II
