ADO Den Haag form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Eredivisie this season. ADO Den Haag, who have the fewest scored goals (8) at home in Eredivisie, have only managed 0 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses from their games here at Cars Jeans Stadion. With nine home Eredivisie games in a row without a win, the Haag fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the FC Groningen game long ago, can be stopped today.
Stress levels are on the rise for Haag's attacking players as they have now played 212 minutes without scoring in a league game. M. Kramer was their last goal scorer.
The fans are hoping that ADO Den Haag will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-3 away loss in the Eredivisie game against FC Groningen (placed 6th). The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus FC Emmen.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for ADO Den Haag here at Cars Jeans Stadion in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (8 from 9 games). Haag are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (20 from 9 played).
Sparta Rotterdam form and stats
The visitors are W4-D1-L4 on the road this term. That's in the Eredivisie.
Rotterdam have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 183 minutes ago. R. Kharchouch was the goal scorer.
There were no winners in Sparta Rotterdam's previous match, a Eredivisie home game that ended 0-0 vs FC Twente (placed 7th). A 0-1 defeat away at FC Utrecht before that.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Rotterdam have scored 9 goals in 9 league games away. As opposed to that, Rotterdam have seen the ball go into their own net 10 times on the road. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
