RKC Waalwijk form and stats

RKC Waalwijk have only played one Eredivisie game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 5 wins, 4 draws and 8 defeats from 17 matches.

RKC Waalwijk manager J. Oosting and his team return home after a 2-2 draw away versus Fortuna Sittard (placed 8th) in the Eredivisie. Attacking player Michiel Kramer bested all teammates in that game and got a match rating of 8.81 out of 10. Kramer scored two goals and hit one key pass.

Vitesse form and stats

Vitesse are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Eredivisie, having played 2 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 1 loss).

Vitesse have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 250 minutes ago. N. Frederiksen was the goal scorer.

Vitesse are travelling again after losing away to Ajax in their previous match (0-5). Midfielder Sondre Tronstad was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.83. Tronstad dribled passed the opponent 2 of 2 times. As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Ajax was particularly ugly (0-5). The humiliation is still top of mind. Vitesse goalkeeper Markus Schubert had a great day against Ajax, but despite making six saves the loss could not be avoided.

A 0-3 loss hosting Willem II before that.

1 goal so far away for Vitesse, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 5. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Previous ten meetings with these participants: RKC Waalwijk won two, Vitesse triumphed in six and we saw two draws. eight games with more than 2,5 goals, two matches with less than 2,5 goals.
