Prediction: Twente vs Excelsior Betting Tips and Predictions

On January 24, at De Grolsch Veste, Twente host Excelsior in the Eredivisie. Recent form shows Twente with a comfortable 4-2 victory in their last home game against Excelsior. Twente’s home record is solid, winning 4 of 9 games this season, while Excelsior struggles away, with only 2 wins in their last 8 away fixtures. Injuries impact both squads, but Twente’s recent home dominance makes them slight favorites.

Twente's squad remains largely intact, with key players such as S. Lammers and M. Kjölø available. Excelsior faces notable absences, including L. Hartjes due to injury, which may impact their midfield stability. Both teams are motivated to secure a win, but Twente’s stronger squad depth gives them an edge during this critical fixture.

If Twente scores first in the match at De Grolsch Veste, they typically maintain control, especially given their recent strong form and home advantage. An early goal for Excelsior could open up more attacking opportunities, but Twente's resilience suggests they are capable of responding effectively. If the match is level at half-time, expect increased intensity in the second half with both sides pushing for an advantage, though Twente's recent home performances indicate they often clinch the win in such scenarios.

Twente's attacking style at home favors high tempo and chance creation, often relying on set pieces, which could be key against a disciplined Excelsior backline. Expect Twente to press high, forcing turnovers that lead to goal-scoring opportunities. Excelsior may look to absorb pressure and hit on the counter, especially targeting set pieces to get on the scoresheet.
