The home fans saw their team lose the first Eredivisie game of the season here at Mandemakers Stadion. Last season these fans witnessed 3 wins, 2 draws and 8 losses from RKC Waalwijk's 13 home games.

In their previous game, the manager F. Grim led his RKC Waalwijk to a defeat in the Eredivisie match away at Ajax. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Mandemakers Stadion. Preceding that match was the home game against Vitesse that was lost 0-1.
Waalwijk's goalkeeper Kostas Lamprou was extremely busy against Ajax, saving the team from a uglier defeat with a stunning seven saves.
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 Waalwijk have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found six matches with the results: Won three, drawn one and lost two.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the RKC Waalwijk at home in the league. 0 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
PEC Zwolle form and stats
One match played away so far in the Eredivisie for PEC Zwolle and it was a tie. Last season the statistics for their away games were 2 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses from 14 games.
The supporters enjoyed Zwolle's previous game versus Sparta Rotterdam (placed 18th), a Eredivisie 4-0 win played at home. Ahead of that match was the away draw versus AZ that ended 1-1.
As mentioned above, Zwolle was the only team on the pitch versus Sparta Rotterdam in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task.
