TOP Oss form and stats

1-0-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Eerste Divisie numbers at home for TOP Oss so far this season. It's trouble wherever TOP are playing these days as they have suffered five straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.

The club members are hoping that TOP Oss will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-3 away loss in the match against Jong AZ (placed 11th). Korte, a natural forward, was the highest rated performer for the team in that match, collecting a rating of 7.4 (out of 10). Korte hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 3 of 3 times and had 23 successful passes (of 27 total).

Heartbreak before that as TOP Oss lost 1-2 at ADO Den Haag's place.

This is expected to be a close game, with TOP Oss perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with TOP Oss as a small favourite), we find 7 games. TOP has won 3 of these, drawn 2 and lost 2.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for TOP Oss as they are travelling to their away game against Telstar in the Eerste Divisie. That match is four days after this one.

Arguioui hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 3 of 3 times.

Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against NAC Breda.
