Groningen continue to build momentum after a solid 2-0 victory over Heerenveen and given their fine home record, we predict that they will record a 2-1 win over Fortuna Sittard. At home, Groningen’s numbers suggest a structured and disciplined team: they concede just 0.75 goals per home match, keep 50% clean sheets, and produce a healthy 2.59 expected goals at Euroborg. Their overall form (WWDDW) has pushed them into a positive rhythm, even though they still score only 1.50 goals per home match on average. First-choice goalkeeper Etienne Vaessen is doubtful after picking up a knock in the last Eredivisie game.
Fortuna Sittard, meanwhile, welcome back defender Justin Hubner from suspension after a 2-1 loss to PSV. Their away record remains problematic, taking just 0.50 points per game and failing to win on their travels. Defensive vulnerabilities are evident: Fortuna concede 2.25 goals per away match and have 0% clean sheets on the road. However, they do tend to score, with BTTS landing in 75% of their away fixtures and 80% overall.
Historically, the matchup is balanced, but Groningen’s home steadiness and Fortuna’s defensive fragility tilt the scales in the hosts’ favour. Given Groningen's strong home metrics and better form, Home Win is our main betting tip for this Eredivisie matchup, alongside Groningen Over 1.5 goals and Over 2.5 goals total.
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Sunday 25 January 2026 at 13:30.
