Wednesday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me head to the goal-laden Dutch Eredivisie, and I’ve highlighted a goals-based selection in one of the fixtures.
⚽️ FC Twente vs SC Telstar
🇳🇱 Eredivisie
⏰ Wednesday 9 September, 17:45
Goals look on the cards at De Grolsch Veste on Wednesday evening as FC Twente host Telstar in the Eredivisie.
John van den Brom’s hosts have scored 25 goals across their opening 10 matches in league and Europe this season, with nine (36%) of those coming across their last three contests in the Eredivisie.
The Tukkers’ have failed to score in just two of those matches – notching on multiple occasions in seven (70%) of them – and will be confident of breaching a Telstar backline that has failed to keep a clean sheet in the Eredivisie this campaign, shipping 2+ goals in each of the last three.
Henk Brugge’s visitors made the headlines over the weekend, as goalkeeper Ronald Koeman Jnr scored twice from the spot to rescue a point at home to newly-promoted Cambuur.
The White Lions have found the back of the net in 22 of their previous 26 Eredivisie contests – scoring 2+ in five of their last eight – and will look to trouble a Twente defence that has recorded a solitary clean sheet in all competitions this term.

Bet of the Day
The Tukkers’ come into this clash as short-priced favourites, but I much prefer backing goals, with both teams contributing.
Twente’s opening 10 matches in all competitions this season have averaged an eye-catching 3.90 goals per game, with Over 2.5 Goals landing in eight (80%) of them, whilst seven (70%) have produced goals at both ends.
Over 2.5 Goals has paid out in 13 of Telstar’s previous 15 Eredivisie fixtures – including in all four this season – whilst 10 of their last 11 away from home have produced goals at both ends.
- Both Teams to Score & Over 2.5 Goals
- Pays 4/5 (bet365)
