Our prediction for this Netherlands Eredivisie match:
Fortuna Sittard will look to recover from a 3-0 loss to Heerenveen when they take on Vitesse in the Eredivisie round 14. Fortuna rolled over Heracles 4-1 in their last home game, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of Saturday’s clash. Defender Rodrigo Guth is banned for the match, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Vitas, on the other hand, suffered a massive 5-0 loss to struggling Dutch powerhouse Ajax at the weekend and given their shaky defence, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on the home side. As for the away team, both Goncalves Pinto and Milano Jonathans are sidelined with injuries, while Fode Fofana is a major doubt and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off. In their last meeting at the venue Fortuna Sittard recorded a 2-0 win over Vitesse.
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.
