Excelsior vs Go Ahead Eagles PREDICTION & BETTING TIPS - 16/12/2023

Excelsior play host to Go Ahead Eagles at their Van Donge & De Roo Stadion on day 16 of the new Eredivisie campaign. The Rotterdammers failed to win the previous eight league matches and, as a result, the bookies see them as the underdogs in Saturday’s encounter. To make things even worse for the home side, defender Arthur Zagre is banned for the match following his sending-off in a 4-2 loss to Twente.

Go Ahead Eagles, on the other hand, aim to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Twente and Utrecht. Rene Hake’s men aim to overtake Ajax in 5th place in the standings and we predict that they will take advantage of Excelsior’s current form in the Dutch top flight. As for the visiting team, forward Finn Stokkers is a major doubt and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off. In their last meeting in the Eredivisie Excelsior defeated Go Ahead Eagles 2-1, meaning that the visitors are hungry for revenge.
