The visiting De Graafschap side should be favourites in this visit to MVV Maastricht, as the away team holds a 18 point advantage from their 14 league games this season.
- MVV Maastricht has the fewest points (4) at home in Eerste Divisie
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Eerste Divisie match only four days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at NEC.
7-6-5 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for De Graafschap when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those 18 matches are 29-28 (scored/conceded).
MVV Maastricht form and stats
MVV Maastricht's results here at De Geusselt in the Eerste Divisie have been very modest with 1 victory, 1 draw and 4 defeats.
Maastricht faced defeat in their previous match, away at NEC (1-2). The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 3-3 versus Jong PSV.
A decent goal production from Maastricht in their home games so far, with 9 goals from 6 league matches. This has been a stadium of sighs so far as MVV Maastricht have let the opposition score 21 times, an average of more than three per game.
De Graafschap form and stats
4 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses. That’s the product of De Graafschap playing as the away team in the Eerste Divisie this season.
There might be some fixture complaints from De Graafschap as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Eerste Divisie match against FC Eindhoven (2-3). A loss against SC Cambuur was the result prior to that, in a home game.
Late heartbreak for Graafschap in the FC Eindhoven match, as the deciding 2-3 goal came deep into overtime.
The travelling fans enjoy Graafschap's attacking play in away games, having scored 13 goals in 7 league matches away. De Graafschap have conceded 12 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: two - zero - eight (Maastricht wins - draws - De Graafschap wins). As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four had two or less.Top Goalscorers
