Twente
Match Time & Date:

07:30 AM
Prediction: 2-1
Venlo
After sharing the spoils with Groningen on Matchday 17, Twente will be looking to return to winning ways in the Eredivisie when they take on VVV-Venlo at their De Grolsch Veste. The Reds aim to keep their Europa League hopes alive, but you should bear in mind that they are on a four-game losing run at home ground. Twente will not have a better chance than this to return to winning ways on home soil, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at Venlo.
The visitors, on the other hand, have been producing fine displays in 2021, with the team beating both Willem II and Den Haag, while sharing the spoils with Heerenveen. Anyhow, we are tempted to put our money on Twente, who should have grabbed something from a 3-1 loss to Ajax in their last home fixture.
