Betting tip and prediction for this match between Groningen x NAC

The best prediction for Groningen x NAC in the Eredivisie is under 2.5 goals. In this matchup, the home team is expected to control the game better, as they are on an upward trajectory and exhibit greater collective balance. NAC, on the other hand, is facing clear offensive limitations and struggles to compete, especially away from home, which tends to slow down the pace of the match. With one team focused on managing the result and the other lacking the strength to respond, the forecast indicates a more subdued scoreline. Thus, a bet on less than 2.5 goals is advisable.

Best prediction for Groningen x NAC

Less than 1.5 goals in the 1st half (live betting tip)
Less than 3.5 goals (live betting tip, double or triple)

Match prediction for Groningen x NAC

The teams Groningen and NAC play at Euroborg, in a match for the 18th round of the Eredivisie. FC Groningen won away (1-2) the last time they faced each other in this league edition, on October 3, 2025. The recent head-to-head record favors the home team, which has 2 victories, 2 draws, and 1 defeat in the last 5 matches. In this match, the home advantage could play a significant role, as both teams show considerable differences in results achieved at home and away.

Analysis of Groningen

The home team is currently in 5th place, with 27 points from 8 wins, 3 draws, and 6 losses. In their penultimate match, they won at home against FC Volendam (3-0). In their last match, they drew away with Go Ahead Eagles (1-1). This team is significantly stronger when playing at home, as reflected in their last 30 matches where they have recorded 4 wins, 2 draws, and 9 losses as visitors, scoring 16 goals and conceding 33, in contrast to 8 wins, 4 draws, and 3 losses at home, with 31 goals scored and 16 conceded. In the last 8 home matches of the league, Groningen has 4 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses, earning 14 points out of a possible 24. The team has conceded goals to their opponents in 8 of the last 10 matches, indicating a lack of defensive solidity; however, their attack has been consistently scoring, successfully converting in 7 of their last 10 matches in this competition. Out of 17 matches played, they conceded the first goal 10 times and managed to turn the score around only once.

Groningen has shown maturity by avoiding mistakes that have compromised results earlier in the season. The team understands that the level of effort needs to remain high, as their 27 points keep their hopes alive for a chase at the top positions. The recent streak of three matches without a loss boosts team confidence and balance. Their recent performances reflect collective improvement and greater match control. Now, playing at home against NAC, Groningen aims to maintain consistency, secure crucial points, and continue their pursuit of the top of the table.

Analysis of NAC

The away team is currently in 18th place, with 13 points from 3 wins, 4 draws, and 10 losses. In their penultimate match, they drew at home against FC Utrecht (1-1). In their last match, they lost at home to Telstar (0-1). This team is stronger when playing at their home ground, as shown by their last 30 matches where they have registered 2 wins, 4 draws, and 9 losses as visitors compared to 5 wins, 3 draws, and 7 losses at home. Their last away game in the competition ended in a loss (1-0) to Sparta Rotterdam. In the last 8 away matches in the league, NAC has 2 draws and 6 losses, earning only 2 points out of a possible 24.

In this competition, they have not won any of their last 8 matches away from home. Among the matches played away in the league, the most frequent result at halftime was 1-0, which occurred in 5 of their 9 games. Defensive solidity has not been their strong point, as they conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches in this competition. In 17 games, they managed to turn around the score only once in the 11 matches in which they conceded first. In the last 20 away matches across all competitions, they had one noteworthy period: scoring 7 of their 20 goals between the 76th and 90th minutes.

NAC is going through a critical phase in the Eredivisie, struggling to compete against any opponent. They have not been able to outperform even the teams from the bottom of the table, exposing deep performance issues. The inability to assert themselves on the pitch has led to alarming statistics throughout the campaign. Sitting at the bottom with only 13 points, the prediction carries little confidence and much pressure. Now, facing a Groningen side that enjoys the opposite reality, NAC arrives with low morale and the challenging task of resisting and aiming to surprise.
