FC Groningen are 8th after 18 games, averaging 1.2 scored and 1.5 conceded on the road. The form figures are level — Sparta Rotterdam have won 30% of home games, FC Groningen 30% away. A tight, hard-to-call fixture.

Both sides consistently see 2+ goals — Sparta Rotterdam in 100% of home games, FC Groningen in 100% away. Three or more is less certain, but Over 1.5 Goals is well supported by the data from both sides.
