MVV Maastricht form and stats

Maastricht lost their last game at FC Emmen (placed 12th) after a 1-7 scoreline. Midfield player Mehdi Lazaar got a match rating of 6.83 in that game, the max score being 10. Lazaar hit one key pass and dribled passed the opponent 2 of 2 times. Maastricht were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
Previous to that game, a home match hosting Telstar in a game that was won 3-0.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 MVV Maastricht have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites).

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (7 in 3 games), Maastricht's attacking play is working. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 5 goals have been conceded.
FC Eindhoven form and stats
FC Eindhoven are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Eerste Divisie, having played 3 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 2 losses). The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Eindhoven have lost on their last two travels.
FC Eindhoven go into this game after a win, the home game against Helmond Sport that ended 3-2. The attacker Jort van der Sande got a match rating of 8.03 in that game. Sande scored one goal, hit two key passes and dribled passed the opponent 1 of 1 times. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager R. Penders when Enrico Hernández scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 56th minute.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against ADO Den Haag wasn't a success with a 2-4 loss.As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by Eindhoven in our archives, and the results are: two wins for FC Eindhoven, two draws and three defeats.
FC Eindhoven has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 5 goals from 3 games. The FC Eindhoven manager R. Penders has some worries about the defense as 7 goals have been conceded in these travels.
