Insights:
  • MVV Maastricht is in the worst form (1-0-5)
  • Jong AZ have the fewest scored goals (27) in Eerste Divisie

These are full days for the home side, as they played only three days ago in the Eerste Divisie. That game was an away game at FC Den Bosch, so at least MVV Maastricht are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

MVV Maastricht form and stats

With 4 Eerste Divisie wins, 2 draws and 8 defeats from their home games, MVV Maastricht are certainly not brimming with confidence. When MVV Maastricht hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Jong Utrecht, MVV Maastricht, Telstar, FC Dordrecht, Almere City and Helmond Sport), they have won 3 of 3 matches! Maastricht are slowly digging their own grave here at De Geusselt with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in eight attempts. The last victory here came in the FC Dordrecht match.

MVV Maastricht lost their last game at FC Den Bosch (placed 13th) after a 1-3 scoreline. Midfield player Blummel got a match rating of 7.35 in that game, the max score being 10. Blummel scored one goal and hit one key pass.

Preceding that match was a defeat to NAC Breda (1-2).

There will be little rest for MVV Maastricht after this match as they are travelling to De Graafschap for a Eerste Divisie game in only four days.

MVV Maastricht has scored 16 league goals at home this season, in 14 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Maastricht have conceded 26 from these games.

Jong AZ form and stats

There's been little loot from Jong AZ's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 14 away games in the Eerste Divisie. Jong AZ only have 2 wins to counter their 10 defeats and 2 draws. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Jong AZ have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone twelve consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the VVV-Venlo game.

Buurmeester (2) and Griffith scored in Jong's previous match, the home game against Telstar that ended 3-2. Midfielder Buurmeester was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.81. Buurmeester scored two goals, hit two key passes and had 45 successful passes (of 49 total).

Before that, Jong AZ travelled to De Graafschap and returned home with a draw after the game finished 0-0.

The schedule is very tough for Jong AZ now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Eerste Divisie game at Jong Utrecht is waiting in only four days.

The attacking power of Jong when travelling is not overwhelming with 10 goals scored from 14 league matches away. As opposed to that, Jong AZ have seen the ball go into their own net 20 times on the road.
