VVV have form in their favour this weekend

VVV won 1-0 away at Groningen last weekend to ensure their unbeaten run since returning from the winter break continued while Fortuna Sittard lost 2-1 at Feyenoord, meaning a gap of 3pts now separates the two clubs. The hosts are the clear form favourites heading into this weekends’ clash after they picked up three wins and three draws from their last six outings, including tricky matches against PSV, Utrecht and Groningen.

VVV have won four of their last seven matches against Fortuna Sittard and the home sides’ form heading into Saturday’s clash will surely hand them the momentum. Fortuna Sittard have lost three of their last five games in league and cup and are still yet to win away from home in the Eredivisie this season.

The hosts have already won five times at home this season while Fortuna Sittard have lost nine times on the road, so you can see why we have backed a home win this weekend. VVV average 1.42 points per home game while Fortuna Sittard average just 0.25 points per away game, which points heavily towards a home win being the most likely result on Saturday.

Fortuna Sittard still haven’t won on the road

VVV score an average of 1.17 goals per home game and Fortuna Sittard only net an average of 0.58 goals per away game, which is why we have gone with a final scoreline of 1-0 this Saturday. The hosts have only scored 14-goals at home so far this season and their guests have only netted 7-goals on the road, s you can see why we are expecting a low-scoring affair in Venlo.

VVV have only kept clean sheets in 17% of their home games and 25% have seen them fail to score, but Fortuna Sittard have only managed to keep their opponents out in 8% of their away games and have failed to score in 50% of those trips on the road. Fortuna Sittard have lost-to-nil in a whopping 42% of their away game, adding further weight to our prediction for a 1-0 home win on Saturday.

We’re confident that VVV will win this weekend and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-0. The home side are in very good form since returning from the winter break, remaining unbeaten in their last six matches, and they go up against a Fortuna Sittard side that still haven’t won away from home.
