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!
Vitesse form and stats
When playing at home in the Eredivisie, Vitesse have managed 0 wins, 0 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 2 games. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Vitesse to get some points in this home game.
The Vitesse fans got no joy from their last match, also played here at GelreDome: A 0-4 defeat against SC Heerenveen (placed 7th). As you see from the result above, Vitesse suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one. Midfield player Bero got a match rating of 6.83 in that game, the max score being 10. Bero hit one key pass.
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Excelsior (1-3).The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Vitesse matches with similar probabilities have ended with 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat (from 6 games).
Early season league goal statistics from Vitesse's 2 home games: 2 goals, 9 conceded.
RKC Waalwijk form and stats
The visitors settled for one point in their first Eredivisie away game of the season. During their previous season 17 away games resulted in 3 wins, 8 draws and 6 defeats.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, the home defeat versus Feyenoord with 0-1 on the scoreboard. It's probably bad news for RKC Waalwijk that their keeper Vaessen managed seven saves in the Feyenoord fixture, but still couldn't rescue them from a defeat.
A 1-1 draw at FC Emmen's stadium 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 Waalwijk playing away, we found 6 games. Results were 0 away wins, 4 draws and 2 home wins.
It's early days yet, but RKC Waalwijk has scored 1 and conceded 1 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
Head 2 Head
Vitesse-RKC Waalwijk H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Vitesse five wins, RKC Waalwijk three wins, two draws. eight of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
