This match features two teams living in the basement of the Eredivisie, Willem II holding 17th place and FC Emmen lying 18th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
- Willem II has the most dropped points from leading position (18) in Eredivisie
- FC Emmen has the most conceded goals (47) in Eredivisie
These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Eredivisie. That game was an away game at Ajax, so at least Willem are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
Willem II form and stats
With 2 Eredivisie wins, 1 draw and 6 defeats from their home games, Willem II are certainly not brimming with confidence. All in all it has been a very rough period for Willem II who hasn’t won a league-game in their last ten attempts. Their previous win was against VVV-Venlo, 70 days ago. Willem are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Koning Willem II Stadion, having lost their two previous games here.
Willem faced defeat in their previous match, away at Ajax (1-3). Preceding that match was the home game against PEC Zwolle that was lost 1-3.
Jorn Brondeel had a busy but productive day in the Ajax match. Despite making six saves the loss could not be prevented.
The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Willem handle that role? We have found five games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are three wins, one draw and one defeat.
Willem are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 13 goals in 9 games. Willem are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (21 from 9 played).
FC Emmen form and stats
FC Emmen, who have the most conceded goals (47) in Eredivisie, have only collected 3 points from their away games in the Eredivisie, after 0-3-6 (9 played). The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Emmen, who have now gone 19 games without a victory. The VVV-Venlo game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since.
Emmen have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 212 minutes ago. M. de Leeuw was the goal scorer.
Home advantage was not enough for Emmen in their previous game, as they lost their Eredivisie-match, hosting PSV, 0-2. Ahead of that match was the away draw versus ADO Den Haag that ended 0-0.
It's a bit worrying for Emmen that their goalkeeper Dennis Telgenkamp made seven saves in the PSV game last time out, but still couldn't prevent the loss.
Emmen are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is two wins, four draws and eight defeats. From a total of 14 matches.
Goals are few and far between in Emmen's away league games. Only 4 goals from 9 travels. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Emmen have conceded 17 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
