Best Predictions and Bets for Emmen vs Cambuur
A couple of relegation-threatened teams are facing each other in this round of 16 matches of Eredivisie.
Contents
Emmen to Win
It is now or never for Emmen. They need to win matches like this one if they are going to have any chance of surviving in the Top Division. Of course, that is easier said than done, but maybe it sounds a bit strange, Emmen does have a better season compared to Cambuur who is the worst team in the league.
Under 2.5 Goals
Cambuur has the worst attack in Eredivisie, they managed to score only nine goals this season, and are looking like a sure candidate for relegation. Emmen has scored four more goals this term, but they are also three points better than their opponents. Both of these teams belong in the bottom half of the league when it comes to ‘over' matches, or rather they have more games with fewer than three goals scored, so predicting this kind of outcome seems like a rational choice.

Draw odds: 69/20 (3.45) – 22.5%
Cambuur odds: 33/10 (3.30) – 23.3%
Emmen is the favorite, at least the bookies are predicting that way, but if you are unsure about the outcome, we suggest different possibilities: If you are expecting a tight game, a Goal Range bet 0-1 could be your preference at odds of 5/2 (3.50) – 28.6%. These teams struggle to create chances for goals, so having Fewer than 8.5 Corners might be expected at odds of 15/8 (2.88) – 34.8%.
Team News, Predicted Lineups, and Preview
Emmen
They had a decent start to the week by advancing further in the Dutch Cup beating Venlo 3-2 after extra time, but now they have to focus on their competition in Eredivisie. Cambuur is one of their main rivals for relegation, and many will predict that Emmen is the favorite on its home turf. Emmen is not all that impressive when playing in front of their home fans, they have only one win, but also a single defeat with five draw games. Most of the points they earned this season came at home, so this is their chance to make the distance in front of Cambuur to six points which could be essential later in the season. Emmen has the second-worst attack in the league with only 13 goals, and advancing just one shot past the visitor's defense could be the deciding factor. There are several injury worries for the home team: Metehan Guclu, Ben Scholte, Jeff Hardeveld, Maikel Kieftenbeld, and Mart Lieder have health problems that could stop them from playing in this match.
Predicted lineup: van der Hart, Bouchouari, Araujo, Heylen, Dirksen, Veendorp, Vlak, ter Haar, El Messaoudi, Diemers, Zivkovic.
Cambuur
An already miserable season for Cambuur got even worse when they lost to a lower league side De Treffers in a midweek Cup match, it was 1-0, and again Cambuur failed to score. Last season they were outstanding scoring goals in the Second Division which got them promoted to the biggest stage of Dutch football, but this season they can't handle much better competition. In their first game back after the winter break last week, they lost at home to Volendam 3-0, which was the first away win for Volendam this season which was at the same time a new low for Cambuur. Getting only nine goals this season is bad enough, and having a defensive midfielder as their best scorer somehow seems even worse. Mees Hoedemakers is the player in question, he has scored twice this season. Robert Uldrikis and Maxim Gullit are injury doubts for the match.
Predicted lineup: Virginia, Bangura, Bergsma, Tol, Wermeskerken, van Kaam, Hoedemakers, Jacobs, Breij, Boere, van der Water.
Starting lineups

FC Emmen
Cambuur Leeuwarden
Player to Watch: Ole Romeny
There isn't much to choose from when it comes to these two teams, but Ole Romeny is the best striker when we put these clubs h2h. He has scored four goals this season and will look to add to his tally against the worst team in the league.
