✨ Prediction

We’re inclined to think that Roda JC Kerkrade should convert a lot of goal-scoring opportunities.

At the same time, VVV-Venlo are also probably going to find it difficult getting goals but we do think that it’s more than likely that they will be managing to get on the scoresheet.

Accordingly, we see a controlled 3-1 win for Roda JC Kerkrade when all’s said and done.
