Twente vs Waalwijk Prediction and Betting Tips | February 16th 2025

The action continues in round 23 of Eredivisie as Twente and Waalwijk square off at the De Grolsch Veste on Sunday. Joseph Oosting’s men head into the weekend on a run of five back-to-back victories on home turf and will be looking to extend this impressive streak.

Veteran forward Ricky van Wolfswinkel kept his cool under pressure as he converted his 95th-minute penalty to hand Twente a 2-1 victory over Bodo/Glimt in the first leg of their Europa League knockout-stage playoff clash on Thursday.

Oosting’s side now turn their focus to the Eredivisie, where they are on a run of just one win from their last five games while losing twice and claiming two draws since mid-December.

Twente have picked up 36 points from their 21 league matches so far to sit sixth in the standings, three points off fifth-placed Feyenoord in the Europa League playoff qualifying spot.

Waalwijk, meanwhile, turned in a performance of the highest quality as they cruised to a 5-0 victory over NAC Breda at the Mandemakers Stadion last Sunday.

Henk Fraser's men have picked up three wins on the bounce, scoring 11 goals and keeping two clean sheets, having failed to win their eight league games preceding this run.

This upturn in form has rekindled Waalwijk’s hopes of salvaging their season as they sit 17th in the table with 17 points from 22 games, three points behind 16th-placed Sparta Rotterdam in the relegation playoff spot.
