Emmen are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-1 away versus AZ. A defeat was the result before that one, 1-3 away at Vitesse.
Felix Wiedwald had a busy but productive day in the AZ match. Despite making eight saves the loss could not be prevented.

When Emmen have been in this position before, they have won zero, drawn one and lost one from two games. one defeat by at least two goals.
