Best Tip: Both teams to score

After looking at the KickOff match predictions, bookies' odds and relevant stats, there's one market which jumps out ahead of the rest for this fixture: both teams to score. In Twente and NEC we have two sides going head-to-head that regularly score, but equally have trouble shutting the opposition out, and we expect them to maintain that reputation on Saturday night. BTTS – yes best odds: 1.44.
