Tip and bets

1.95handicap (-1) on Feyenoord

Feyenoord is undoubtedly motivated and focused solely on victory. Despite their upcoming Champions League match against Girona, it’s unlikely that the coach will implement major rotation as the situation in the league necessitates improvement; PSV has already gained a significant lead in the standings. Nijmegen has not impressed early in the season, making it unlikely that the favorite will face any serious challenges in securing all three points.

We believe the hosts stand little chance. Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1) on Feyenoord, with odds of 1.95.
