Telstar form and stats

Telstar's results here at BUKO Stadion in the Eerste Divisie have been very modest with 3 victories, 4 draws and 6 defeats.

The home team returns to BUKO Stadion after drawing with Helmond Sport (placed 20th) on their last time out; the game ended 2-2. Smit, a striker, was the best performer for the team in that game, and was presented with a rating of 7.75 (out of 10). Smit scored one goal, served one assist, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.

Preceding that match was the home game against De Graafschap that was lost 0-3.

This is expected to be a close game, with Telstar perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Telstar as a small favourite), we find five games. Telstar has won zero of these, drawn three and lost two.

Telstar are traveling soon after this match as the Eerste Divisie match at Jong AZ awaits in three days.

Telstar are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 15 goals in 13 games. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Telstar with 27 goals conceded in these matches.

TOP Oss form and stats

There's been little loot from TOP Oss's travels as they have only collected 11 points from 13 away games in the Eerste Divisie. TOP Oss only have 3 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 2 draws.

Margaritha, Büttner, Tejan and Herik scored in TOP Oss's previous match, the home game against Jong Utrecht that ended 4-1. Midfield player Margaritha was the top player of the team with a match rating of 8.61/10. Margaritha scored one goal, served one assist, hit four key passes, dribled past the opponent 5 of 9 times and had 26 successful passes (of 31 total).

A loss against FC Eindhoven was the result prior to that, in a home game.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by TOP in our archives, and the results are: three wins for TOP Oss, three draws and one defeat.

TOP Oss have conceded 22 goals in these games.
