Maastricht has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to FC Den Bosch for a 3-3 draw. MVV Maastricht's last match (vs FC Den Bosch) ended in drama as all points looked lost at the score 1-3. They did not give up, fought back and in the end a courageous finish rescued a draw after 90 minutes thanks to a 90th minute equalizer by Remans. As mentioned above, MVV Maastricht drew the match against FC Den Bosch. Manager Verberne brought on Remans to rescue the draw from a losing position and it worked. The attacker Kostons got a match rating of 7.12 in that game. Kostons served one assist and hit one key pass.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Telstar wasn't a success with a 3-5 loss.Goal hungry football fans should note that 8 of this team's 10 latest league games have ended with three or more goals.
Maastricht have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 11 league away games 15 goals have been scored. The MVV Maastricht manager Verberne has some worries about the defense as 26 goals have been conceded in these travels.
