Sparta Rotterdam vs Dordrecht Prediction & Betting tips
Sparta escaped Thursday afternoon in Dordrecht and can already smell the finale of the playoffs for preservation of life. The Rotterdammers start as a favorite for the second game against the Sheep Heads.
Sparta Rotterdam:
Sparta was the towering favorite for the diptych with FC Dordrecht, which qualified sensationally for the semi-finals, but during the first game on Thursday it soon became clear that it certainly will not go for the team of trainer Dick Advocaat. Loris Brogno quickly opened the score, but towards the end it was Stijn Spierings who, with an unfortunate goal, took the score again. However, the last word was to the visitors. Robert Muhren crowned himself a match winner and ensured that the Spartans can now finish it at home.
Sparta will now work with reasonable confidence towards the second game with FC Dordrecht. The last seven home games yielded four victories and three defeats, but it must be mentioned that both Ajax and PSV recently visited Rotterdam. It is striking that Sparta of Ajax and Heracles Almelo lost 2-5.
Lawyer will probably make some changes for this competition. Jannik Huth and Jeffrey Chabot pulled out for the first game in Dordrecht and behind their names there is still a question mark. It is in line with expectations that Roy Kortsmit and Bart Vriends will start again.
FC Dordrecht:
FC Dordrecht seemed dead and buried last weekend after half a football against SC Cambuur, but in one way or another the South Hollanders managed to throw the Frisians out of the playoffs. The visitors produced four goals in Leeuwarden, thus pulling the score again and then taking the penalty kicks a lot better. After a match against Sparta, FC Dordrecht faces the same kind of mission because that the Sheep Heads are the underdog for the second game is clear.
On the basis of the form, or rather the lack of it, it seems impossible that FC Dordrecht will again get a stunt out of it. The last nine games yielded only a victory and that was the victory over Cambuur. The other eight games resulted in seven defeats and a draw and that shows that the victory at Cambuur is outwitted.
In the first game against Sparta, eighteen-year-old goalkeeper Menno Bergsen again appeared under the bar. The youth replaced Bryan Janssen who is still not completely fit. Bergsen now seems to be starting again.
