After frustratingly falling a goal short in Germany on Saturday, Sunday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me delve into the Dutch Eredivisie, and I’ve highlighted a goals-based selection in one of the fixtures.
⚽️ NEC vs Go Ahead Eagles
🇳🇱 Eredivisie
⏰ Sunday 9 March, 13:30
The Go Ahead Eagles will look to continue their quest for European qualification as they travel to the Goffertstadion this afternoon to take on 13th-placed NEC in a fixture that appeals to me for goals.
Rogier Meijer’s hosts have scored 34 goals across their opening 24 matches in the Eredivisie this term, with 25 (74%) of them coming in front of their supporters.
The Nijmegen-based club have found the back of the net in all 12 (100%) of their league clashes on home soil – notching on multiple occasions in each of their last three and five of their past eight – and will look to continue their goal-scoring streak at home against an Eagles backline that has kept just two clean sheets on their travels this season, shipping 2+ goals in four of their last five.
Paul Simonis’s visitors have slammed in 43 goals across their opening 24 Eredivisie fixtures this season, with 15 (35%) of them coming across their 11 road trips.
The Eagles have made the net bulge in 18 of their previous 20 Eredivisie encounters – notching on multiple occasions in 14 (70%) of those matches – and will be confident of getting on the scoresheet once again against a NEC defence that’s kept just three clean sheets at home this campaign and none in their last six.
Bet of the Day
NEC’s opening 12 Eredivisie fixtures in front of their supporters this season have averaged an eye-catching 3.42 goals per game, with Over 2.5 Goals banking in nine (75%) of them – including in seven of their last eight – whilst each of their past six have produced goals at both ends.
The Eagles’s opening 24 Eredivisie contests this campaign have averaged an impressive 3.38 goals per game, with Over 2.5 Goals paying out in 16 (67%) of them – including in 14 of their last 17 – whilst six of their previous nine have featured goals at both ends.
