Excelsior vs Vitesse Prediction & Match Preview

• Vitesse managed to win one point as they held FC Volendam by 1-1 in their last outing. This is a positive result for them considering the fact that they are at the bottom of the table.
• Excelsior’s plan is not going well as they have lost three matches in a row.
• It is important to note that the Vitesse have lost all their away matches starting in December.

Excelsior’s defensive line has been a cause for concern, and they will need to tighten up at the back if they want to secure a positive result against Vitesse. We have observed that they have conceded nine goals in their last three games against Sparta Rotterdam, Twente, and Almere City.

Vitesse tried a different approach against Volendam. After a long time, they played in an attacking formation and kept more than 70% possession. On top of that, they registered eight shots on target. If they keep maintaining this form for the next few weeks, they have a good opportunity to move away from the relegation zone. However, they must be cautious as losing more points will put them in a tight position.

Recent Meetings

When it comes to head-to-head encounters, Excelsior are unbeaten in the last three meetings against this opposition. These two teams last played against each other back in October and the game ended in a goalless draw. On this ground, Vitesse have won this fixture only once in the last five years.

Excelsior vs Vitesse Prediction

Vitesse are indeed fighting a relegation battle. Their away form is pulling them down. It is shocking to find out that they have lost seven away games in a row. Excelsior are also walking in a similar direction as they have lost all their games since the beginning of this month. We can back this game to end in a draw at the 3.60 odds. This is our first pick for this game.

We have observed that the visitors scored consistently in their last two away games. Excelsior scored one goal against Utrecht and Almere City. Therefore, both teams scoring at the 1.65 odds is surely the best tip for this match.
