Feyenoord vs FC Groningen Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals / Feyenoord to Win

Feyenoord is oozing confidence following a comfortable 2-0 victory over Almere City. Although their exit from the Europa League was disappointing, their strong performance in the Eredivisie continues. They have remained unbeaten in their last nine domestic matches, securing seven wins in the process.

Arne Slot’s team, known for their strong defense, have had fewer than 2.5 goals scored against them in their last six home matches. They also managed to keep clean sheets in five of these games. This includes a recent 2:0 victory over Almere City this past weekend.

In this tournament, Feyenoord have successfully faced challenging matches against the dominant leaders of Eredivisie, PSV Eindhoven (1:0), and top six challengers, AZ Alkmaar (2:0).

Despite a strong performance in the Eerste Divisie, Groningen enters this semi-final as significant underdogs. They have an impressive record, having lost only one out of their last 18 games in all competitions and managing to keep clean sheets in six of their last eight matches.

Recent games between these teams have been notably close. Only one out of their previous nine encounters resulted in more than 2.5 goals, which includes the last four matches in Rotterdam.

Considering recent form and past meetings, a low-scoring encounter could well be on the cards on Thursday. Feyenoord should have enough quality to secure their place in the final but I fancy this to be a tight affair and the under 2.5 goal selection certainly offers plenty of value.
