NAC Breda form and stats

There's been little loot from NAC Breda's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 12 away games in the Eerste Divisie. NAC Breda only have 2 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 3 draws. NAC Breda seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

NAC Breda are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the match against FC Den Bosch (placed 14th). Midfield player Velanas was the top player of the team with a match rating of 8.74/10. Velanas scored one goal, served one assist, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 3 of 3 times.

Breda have another fixture that requires travelling in just three nights, a Eerste Divisie fixture versus Jong AZ. A hard itinerary for the visiting team!

NAC Breda are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 15 away goals from 12 games (in the league). NAC Breda's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 22 goals from these trips.
