Our prediction for this Netherlands Eredivisie match:
Cambuur Stadion will host Saturday’s football game between Cambuur and Vitesse, the two teams who are almost level on points in the Eredivisie standings. The newcomers have been performing above expectations in the 2021/2022 season, and, as a result, they are on the right track to secure the survival. Cambuur are on a four-match winning run in the Dutch top flight, but this game will be anything but a walk in the park for the hosts.
Both David Sambissa and Marco Tol are rated doubtful for the hosts. The Vitas, on the other hand, head into the match following a goalless draw with AZ Alkmaar. Considering that Vitesse are desperate to return to winning ways in the Dutch top flight, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. All Romaric Yapi, Oussama Darfalou, and Daan Reiziger should miss out with injuries for the away team.
Highlighted Player (Keisuke Honda):
Keisuke Honda is considered one of the most famous Japanese footballers. Honda was born in Settsu, Osaka on June 13, 1986 and he started his youth career at his hometown club Settsu FC.

Highlighted Team (Vitesse):
Nicknamed Vitas, the proud of Gelderland, Vitesse are a Dutch football club based in Arnhem. Vitesse compete in the Dutch Eredivisie and they have yet to win the national championship. However, they finished as runners-up in the Dutch elite division on five occasions (1897–98, 1902–03, 1912–13, 1913–14, 1914–15), while clinching third place in the standings in the 1997/1998 season.
Vitesse did remarkably well to win the 2016/2017 Dutch Cup title, with the team beating AZ Alkmaar in the final at De Kuip in Rotterdam. As a result, the Vitas booked their place in the Europa League group stages where they face the likes of Lazio, Nice and Zulte-Waregem.
Vitesse are well known for their yellow jerseys with black stripes, while the club’s away colour is black. GelreDome is the home ground of the Dutch team and the capacity of the venue is 21.248. It has to be noted that famous Spanish footballer Albert Ferrer was in charge of the club in the 2010/2011 season.
