Excelsior Groningen betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This is a very important duel that is worth a place in the quarterfinals of KNVB Beker 2023/2024. Excelsior is trying to win again at home, something that has not happened in the last 4 matches at its stadium, while Groningen is officially back in action after more than three weeks without playing. It is worth mentioning that Excelsior is in 15th place in the Eredivisie, the first division, in the same way that Groningen is in eighth place in the Eerste Divisie, the country's second level championship. A very balanced confrontation is expected, which could be decided by a detail or even go into extra time or penalty shootouts. That's why we will bet on Under 3 Goals in the Asian market so that we will win the bet if a maximum of 2 goals are scored in normal time and we will have a refund if exactly 3 goals are scored during the 90 minutes. It is important to consider that the average of goals in Excelsior's last 10 matches at home is 1.3 goals per match and the average of Groningen's last 10 matches away from home is exactly 2 goals per match.

Analysis Groningen

Groningen has 10 unbeaten matches at the moment and has not lost since 29-10-2023, when they were beaten by Cambuur (2-1) away from home in the Eerste Divisie, a competition equivalent to the second division championship, of which the team is the eighth placed, being on the edge of the qualifying zone for the playoffs. Since then there have been 7 wins and 3 draws, but the team has not officially played since 12/22/2023, therefore before the European winter break. In total in the season they had 22 matches played by Groningen with 11 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses, 36 goals scored and 21 goals conceded. As a visitor they had 11 matches, 5 wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats, 18 goals scored and 11 goals conceded. In this KNVB Beker 2023/2024, Groningen only played away from home having won both matches. In their debut, they won (0-1) at the home of Rijnsburg, a team from the Tweede Divisie, equivalent to the third level championship, and more recently won (1-3) at the stadium of Willem II, the great leader of the Eerste Divisie and more likely candidate for access to the elite division. In coach Dick Lukkien's starting lineup, the return of right-back Leandro Bacuna, born in Curaçao, is expected.

Confirmed Lineup: Hidde Jurjus, Marco Rente, Wouter Prins, Nick Bakker, Luciano Valente, Leandro Bacuna, Joey Pelupessy, Johan Hove, Romano Postema, Jorg Schreuders, Thom van Bergen.
