Jong PSV form and stats

With 4 Eerste Divisie wins, 5 draws and 8 defeats from their home games, Jong PSV are certainly not brimming with confidence.

The Jong PSV crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-2 to De Graafschap here at Sportcomplex De Herdgang in a Eerste Divisie match. A strong away win before that one, visiting FC Eindhoven and winning 2-0.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Jong PSV have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found seven matches with the results: Won two, drawn three and lost two.

The Jong fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 22 in 17 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 26 goals have been conceded. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 3 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
