Jong Ajax form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Eerste Divisie this season. Jong Ajax have only managed 3 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses from their games here at Sportpark De Toekomst. With eight home Eerste Divisie games in a row without a win, the Jong Ajax fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Jong Utrecht game long ago, can be stopped today.

No payout for Jong in their previous match, an away game at Excelsior that ended in defeat 1-5. Prior to that, an away loss at FC Volendam.

As you see from the result above, Jong suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.

Jong are traveling soon after this match as the Eerste Divisie match at Roda JC Kerkrade awaits in four days.

Jong are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 18 goals in 13 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 25 goals have been conceded.

FC Den Bosch form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for FC Den Bosch, who have the fewest points (2) away in Eerste Divisie, so far with only 2 points returning home. The records show 0-2-11 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in 13 away games in a row.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Bosch, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-4 versus NEC (placed 6th). That result followed a home victory 3-0 versus Jong Utrecht.

FC Den Bosch goalkeeper Wouter Van der Steen had a great day against NEC, but despite making six saves the loss could not be avoided.

A new game in only four days for FC Den Bosch, the Eerste Divisie home match versus FC Volendam. Busy days.

The attacking power of Bosch when travelling is not overwhelming with 11 goals scored from 13 league matches away. Bosch can't defend away. 42 goals have been scored by the opposition in 13 matches, an average of more than three per game. You might want to look at the total goal statistics, which can be found on the Statistics tab above.
