FC Groningen vs VVV-Venlo Betting Tips

After the historic and mammoth 13-0 defeat against Ajax last weekend, Venlo need to find their feet back as soon as possible. But unfortunately, they face another top-half side Groningen away from home this Saturday. Groningen have won 3 of their last 5 fixtures now and are yet to drop a single point against any team from the lower half of the points table. Venlo might be heading towards another loss albeit a smaller one than the Ajax debacle.

Though Venlo have seen more than a couple of goals in 8 of their last 10 fixtures, they have kept it a low-key event whenever they face Groningen. 7 of the last 9 meetings between Groningen and Venlo have seen less than 2.5 goals being scored. In an interesting bundle of statistics, it has also been observed that Venlo score first usually against Groningen.

The most important talking points ahead of this fixture are Groningen’s home form and Venlo’s away form. Groningen have failed to win 2 of their 3 home games this season, and have actually conceded more goals (3) than they have scored (2) at this Saturday’s venue. On the other hand, Venlo have been better away from home rather than at home.

Despite these nuances, being so early on in the Eredivisie, one should stick to the fundamentally strong side among the two to bet on this weekend. Thus, a bet on a ‘Groningen Win’ should be the best bet for this clash. An ACCA should be avoided in this one as it is a fairly uncertain tie apart from a certain win for the home side.

FC Groningen vs VVV-Venlo Correct Score Predictions

Venlo should score first as they usually do against Groningen. They have an added motivation after last week’s disaster against Ajax, to get back on track. But a couple of goals in the second half by the home side would be enough to bury the already fallen visitors. A 2-1 win for Groningen in this one.
