GA Eagles vs Excelsior Prediction & Betting Tips

GA Eagles vs Excelsior Preview

Go Ahead Eagles’ performance in the Eredivisie continues to raise eyebrows following their 2-1 defeat to PSV Eindhoven last weekend. The hosts were outplayed on all fronts in that game and could barely withstand the pressure or create any clear-cut chance. The result also means they are now without a win in three league matches, losing two and drawing one.

At home, Melvin Boel’s men have recorded two draws, one win, and one defeat from four matches. Their defensive vulnerabilities have been exposed time and time again, and they remain one of the highest-conceding teams in the Eredivisie with 15 goals against them. Go Ahead Eagles currently sit 12th on the table with ten points from nine matches.

Meanwhile, Excelsior head into this clash on the back of a 1-0 win over Fortuna Sittard, which brought an end to their short losing streak. The visitors gave a good account of themselves in that contest, as Gyan de Regt’s sixth-minute strike proved decisive. They dominated the opposition, and their display showed significant improvement compared to previous outings.

However, Excelsior have not been convincing away from home, losing three of their four matches so far. They will need to improve this record if they hope to remain in the top flight beyond this season. Their current form sees them placed 13th on the log with nine points from nine matches.

GA Eagles vs Excelsior Prediction

Although both teams have struggled for consistency this season, we are backing Go Ahead Eagles to win this game. This is because they are unbeaten in their last five home meetings with Excelsior, winning three and drawing two.

Both clubs are also expected to find the back of the net, as this outcome occurred in three of Go Ahead Eagles’ last four matches and in each of Excelsior’s last three.

Lastly, we back Milan Smit to score anytime, as the Dutch forward has netted four goals in his last four league appearances. His goals have played a crucial role in determining the outcome of Eagles’ recent matches, and we don’t expect this encounter to be an exception.
