Eindhoven vs Venlo Free Bets and Predictions

This is going to be one of the derby matches for this round in the Dutch Second Division.

Both Teams to Score – No

Incredibly, the last seven matches between these teams ended without both teams scoring a goal. Statistically, this should happen right about now, but because it’s such an important game for both teams as they are fighting for promotion playoffs, this could be a hard-fought affair.

Under 2.5 Goals

Even though Venlo is one of the teams with the highest amount of ‘over’ matches this season, the significance of this matchup has increasing value for both teams, so we should expect fewer goals than one would assume.

Draw

With the promotion playoffs in the balance, playing a tight match, especially defending wise could lead these teams to a draw.

Eindhoven vs Venlo Preview: Breaking down the defensive wall

Eindhoven

Eindhoven returned from a three-week break last weekend with an impressive win away to De Graafschap, this was their third win in the last four matches which gives them great expectations towards the final part of the season even though there is still a long way to go before the seasons ends. They are one of the best offensive sides in the league but could do with somewhat better defending. They have nine wins to their credit and are holding onto the fourth spot in the rankings. The home team has some injury issues for this match, they are without center-back Maarten Peijnenburg and Moussa Sanoh, but fortunately, their best two scorers, Charles-Andreas Brym and Naoufal Bannis are ready to go. They both scored five goals apiece.

Venlo

The visitors will have some trouble at the goal, their most experienced goalkeeper Lukas Zima is injured, and the other options for coach Rick Kruys are 21-year-old Ennio van der Gouw and 20-year-old Jens Craehmehr. In general, Venlo is one of the youngest teams in the Second Division with an average age of 22.5 which makes their success this season even more valuable. Their star player who is getting a lot of attention is Sven Braken. He is also one of the oldest players on the squad at 29 years of age. Braken scored nine goals this season and is the third best scorer in the league. He also leads the team in assists with five. Venlo lies sixth in the rankings with a four-match unbeaten run. But, facing Eindhoven will be a different task, even more, difficult than one would assume. The main issue will be the question of how to keep their net clean. They have allowed 26 goals this term, the same amount as they have scored. It’s the balance that counts, but for the sake of this match, the shift needs to be in Venlo’s favor, or they will face a tough night in Eindhoven.
