6-4-21 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Sparta Rotterdam when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 31 matches are 24-61 (scored/conceded).

This should be an engaging match with lots of fun and energy as both sides are well revitalized since they last ran out on the pitch. Let's go!
