The upcoming match between the home team and NEC presents an interesting scenario. The home team is favored to win this encounter, making a bet on 1X a good choice. Erwin van de Looi's team has struggled to score against NEC in the past, while NEC has consistently scored at least 2 goals in their recent matchups. The away team's worrying average of goals conceded on the road leaves them vulnerable in defense.
Given the high number of goals scored in their previous meetings, we can expect a fair amount of goals in this game. Based on their recent form in the past few matchdays, the home team appears to be in a better position to take the win. The last few direct clashes between these two teams have resulted in 3 wins for the home team, 1 draw, and 1 win for the away team.
Rogier Meijer's team has an average of 1 goal scored per game this season, showing some ability in the attacking department. On the other hand, the away team has struggled to find the back of the net with an average of 0.4 goals scored per game. This could be a significant factor in the outcome of the match.
Taking all these factors into consideration, it seems like the home team has the upper hand in this matchup. They have a good chance of securing a victory against NEC, especially with their previous record of success against them. NEC's defensive vulnerabilities and lack of goals scored could work in favor of the home team, leading to a potentially high-scoring game.
In conclusion, betting on the home team to win or at least draw seems like a wise choice for this upcoming match. The statistics and trends suggest that they have a good chance of coming out on top, but football can be unpredictable, so it will be interesting to see how the game unfolds.
