This match features two teams living in the basement of the Eerste Divisie, TOP Oss holding 17th place and Roda JC Kerkrade lying 16th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
TOP Oss form and stats
TOP Oss have played 11 Eerste Divisie games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 4-2-5 (wins-draws-losses).
In their previous game, the manager K. Wels led his TOP Oss to a defeat in the Eerste Divisie match away at Telstar. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Frans Heesen Stadion. Before that game, the home loss against AZ with the scoreline 0-2.
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 four games. TOP Oss has won 1 of these, drawn 2 and lost 1.
The TOP Oss fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 14 in 11 matches. TOP Oss's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 15 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Roda JC Kerkrade have only collected 8 points from their away games in the Eerste Divisie, after 1-5-5 (11 played). Roda JC Kerkrade are desperate to end a eleven-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the NAC Breda fixture. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on J. de Jong, the Roda JC Kerkrade manager, as the last three away games were defeats.
