Den Haag vs Groningen Prediction 16 August 2026
📢 Den Haag have made a poor start to the new Eredivisie season and are sitting close to the danger zone. Groningen secured a place in the leading group after the very first round and are looking to hold on to a European spot. Both clubs enter the season with different objectives: the hosts are forced to think about survival, while the visitors are aiming to stay among the stronger sides. In recent home matches Den Haag have been picking up points consistently, though the scoring records of both teams raise doubts about their attacking capabilities.

Den Haag have made a poor start to the season and remain without a point after the opening match.

During that run Den Haag averaged two goals per game while conceding just 0.9, so the balance between attack and defence remains decent. The slip in the first round does not yet look like a sign of a serious downturn, but it is important for the team to prove that as soon as possible in their next match.

⭐ Editor's Pick
Bookmakers give a slight edge to Groningen, who are the stronger side on paper, but it will be harder to show that advantage away from home. Den Haag, after losing on the opening day, will try to play more cautiously and not give the visitors much space. On top of that, matches between these two teams are rarely high-scoring: in 17 of the last 18 meetings, no more than three goals were scored. So our bet is total under 3.5 goals. Expected score - 1:1.
