Groningen vs Nijmegen Prediction and Betting Tips 10 May 2026

Groningen head into this match needing a response after a 3–2 loss to Excelsior, as they try to keep their playoff hopes alive. As NEC aim to put icing on the cake on a very successful season, we predict a 3-2 away win. Groningen's recent form has been inconsistent (1.10 points per game), but matches involving them are typically open, averaging 3.10 total goals. The Green and White Army score 1.60 and concede 1.50 per game, with BTTS landing in 70% of their last 10 fixtures. At home, they are slightly stronger (1.40 points per game), and importantly, they have no fresh injury concerns.

NEC Nijmegen head into the match with greater momentum and motivation, chasing a historic Champions League qualification. The visitors average 1.60 points per game and have been involved in very high-scoring matches (3.60 goals on average). Offensively, they are reliable, scoring 1.90 per game and failing to score in none of their last 10 matches, while BTTS has hit 80%. However, they do concede 1.70 goals per game. Basar Onal and Freek Entius are the only absentees for the visitors.

Given NEC's better form and higher motivation, punters worldwide can find value in betting on Away Win, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (High average goal numbers on both ends).

This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Sunday 10 May 2026 at 15:45.
