With the nervous opening game out of the way it’s time for the second Eerste Divisie game of the season. Helmond Sport look forward to welcoming NAC Breda in front of their home support.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
This stadium uses artifical turf, unlike NAC Breda's home stadium. The visitors last 17 games on artifical turf have ended in 6 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses.
Helmond Sport form and stats
Helmond are returning here after visiting TOP Oss in a Eerste Divisie game and winning with a 2-1 scoreline. Arno Van Keilegom and Jeff Stans scored the goal(s). Preceding that game was the home draw versus FC Dordrecht that ended 1-1.

NAC Breda form and stats
The supporters enjoyed Breda's previous game versus Jong AZ (placed 19th), a Eerste Divisie 6-1 win played at home. That result followed a home victory 4-1 versus Roda JC Kerkrade.
