NEC form and stats
NEC have played three Eredivisie home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 2 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. NEC are splitting points both home and away, currently holding an interesting streak of five drawn games in a row.
The NEC manager Meijer and his gang return home after a 0-0 draw away versus FC Utrecht (placed 9th). NEC's goalie Cillessen played a big part in securing a draw after 90 minutes against FC Utrecht with a stunning seven saves. Cillessen, who guards the goal, was given a match rating of 9.15 out of 10 in that game. Cillessen topped it up with a clean sheet.
The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Fortuna Sittard.Sports gamblers who enjoy gambling for low-scoring games might like knowing that this club have played 5 league fixtures in a row with zero, one or two goals (under 2.5).
NEC aren't scoring a lot here at Goffertstadion in the league, with only 2 goals from 3 games.
Feyenoord form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team, who have the most scored goals (13) away in Eredivisie, on their Eredivisie travels is 3 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat.
Feyenoord lost away at PSV (3-4) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. That loss ended this club's string of league fixtures in a row without losing; ten games in all! An insane fixture with an abundance of goals last time out for Feyenoord, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that match, will this match be as refreshing? Hancko, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.95. Hancko won 9 of 13 duels.
Before that match, the win at home against Sturm Graz in the Europa League (6-0).
The schedule is very tough for Feyenoord now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Europa League game at Midtjylland is waiting in only four days.
The prediction for this game is lots of goals as Feyenoord alone have scored more than three on average in their league games away (13 from 4 played). Feyenoord have conceded 9 goals in these games.
