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 MVV Maastricht.

10-6-3 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for NAC Breda 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 19 matches are 34-21 (scored/conceded).
