Crucial fight in the lower part of the Eredivisie, with both Go Ahead Eagles and FC Emmen experiencing more angst than delight. This fixture is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team positioned 17th and the away team in 15th place.
- Go Ahead Eagles have lost all their home matches so far.
- FC Emmen have the fewest points (0) away in Eredivisie
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!
Go Ahead Eagles form and stats
Go Ahead Eagles have played three Eredivisie home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 0 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. Game days at De Adelaarshorst have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Eagles as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.
A strong away win for Go Ahead Eagles against FC Volendam the last match, as Kuipers (2) and Adekanye were on target. Finally, a league win after five games without. Kuipers was "man of the match" with a rating of 8.61 out of 10. The defender Kuipers scored two goals, hit one key pass and won 3 of 5 duels.
Preceding that match was the home game against Feyenoord that was lost 3-4.The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Go Ahead Eagles have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 7 matches with the results: Won 3, drawn 1 and lost 3.
The Eagles fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 5 goals in 3 league matches. This has been a stadium of sighs so far as Go Ahead Eagles have let the opposition score 10 times, an average of more than three per game.
FC Emmen form and stats
It's not happening yet for FC Emmen on their Eredivisie travels, with zero points from their first 3 away games. Maybe today will be different? Three consecutive losses in away matches means FC Emmen are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.
Emmen are travelling again after losing away to Excelsior in their previous match (1-2). Late heartbreak for FC Emmen in the Excelsior match, as the deciding 1-2 goal came deep into overtime. Midfielder Diemers was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.5. Diemers hit the woodwork once, hit three key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 44 successful passes (of 53 total).
A loss against AZ 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 4 similar matches played by FC Emmen in our archives, and the results are: 3 wins for Emmen, 0 draws and 1 defeat.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting FC Emmen as they have only managed to score 2 times from 3 away games in the league. FC Emmen can't defend away. 10 goals have been scored by the opposition in 3 matches, an average of more than three per game.
