FC Emmen form and stats

Things could have gone better for FC Emmen in their Eerste Divisie away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.

Emmen had fun at their own home (Rat Verlegh Stadion) last time out, beating MVV Maastricht 7-1. Rui Mendes (3), Azzeddine Toufiqui and Jeredy Hilterman (2) scored. Rui Mendes got a match rating of 9.32 in that game, top player of the team. Mendes scored three goals. As mentioned above, Emmen was the only team on the pitch versus MVV Maastricht in their previous game, winning 7-1. This could be a tougher task. It's hard not to mention Rui Mendes's lethal finishing against MVV Maastricht. three goals were a big reason for the important victory.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Helmond Sport wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Emmen have scored 3 goals in 3 league games away. 3 goals have been conceded by FC Emmen in these games.
