VVSB hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 16 points and a 13th position in the Derde Divisie: Zaterdag table. Visiting Excelsior '31 holds 10th place with 21 pts.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
VVSB form and stats
VVSB's struggle is real here at Sportpark De Boekhorst with only 5 points collected from 7 Derde Divisie: Zaterdag games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-2-4. There's also a terrible streak running regardless of playing venue as VVSB have lost seven games in a row. It's been an uphill battle for VVSB in their home games for quite some time now, as four matches in a row are lost here. Not since the VVOG game have they avoided the disappointment of defeat.
VVSB lost their last game at Almere City II (placed 7th) after a 0-1 scoreline. A defeat was the result before that one, 1-3 away at Sparta Nijkerk.
The VVSB fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 11 goals in 7 league matches. Defensively there's plenty of potential for improvement as VVSB have allowed the opposition to score 19 goals here at Sportpark De Boekhorst.
Excelsior '31 form and stats
Excelsior '31 have an excellent away record in the Derde Divisie: Zaterdag so far with 5-0-2 from 7 games.
