Sunday’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.
⚽️ NEC vs Go Ahead Eagles
🇳🇱 Eredivisie
⏰ Sunday 20 September, 15:45
Goals look guaranteed in Nijmegen on Sunday afternoon as NEC entertain the Go Ahead Eagles in the Eredivisie.
Dick Schreuder’s hosts have fired in 11 goals across their opening six Eredivisie contests this term, with four (36%) of them coming on home soil.
The Nijmegen-based club have blanked just once in the league so far this season – scoring 2+ goals in three of their past five – and will be expected to breach an Eagles defence that has yet to record a clean sheet in the league this term, shipping 13 goals.
Joseph Oosting’s visitors have scored an impressive 15 goals across their opening six Eredivisie fixtures this season, with seven (47%) of them coming on their travels.
The Eagles have found the back of the net in each of their opening six league outings – scoring on multiple occasions in five (83%) of them – and will be confident of breaching an NEC backline that has yet to record a clean sheet in the Eredivisie this term, shipping 12 goals.
