PEC Zwolle form and stats

PEC Zwolle have collected 21 points from their Eredivisie home games so far after 5-6-4. Two home wins in a row for PEC Zwolle bring valid hopes of a third.

Zwolle are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-2 away versus Vitesse. Before that match, a win away at SC Heerenveen.

The defeat against Vitesse was especially painful as the deciding goal against was scored two minutes into stoppage time (by I. Toure).

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Zwolle's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played four games, won two matches, drawn one and lost one.

There will be little rest for PEC Zwolle after this match as they are travelling to PSV for a Eredivisie game in only four days.

The Zwolle fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 18 in 15 matches. Zwolle's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 17 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

ADO Den Haag form and stats

ADO Den Haag, who have the fewest scored goals (25) in Eredivisie, have only collected 10 points from their away games in the Eredivisie, after 2-4-9 (15 played).

A 0-3 loss hosting Fortuna Sittard before that.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and ADO Den Haag playing away, we found two games. Results were one away win, one draw and zero home wins.

A quick return to home after this game, as Haag are hosting Willem II in the Eredivisie only four days away.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Haag as they have only managed to score 9 times from 15 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The Haag manager R. Brood has some worries about the defense as 35 goals have been conceded in these travels.
