GVVV form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for GVVV so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 0-3-7 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in ten away games in a row.

GVVV's last game was the home draw against Kozakken Boys (2-2). The draw against Kozakken Boys came from a losing position. The GVVV manager Vink brought on Teije as a substitute and the player scored to make the scores level.

A draw for GVVV before that, at their own venue hosting Noordwijk (1-1).

GVVV have another match away from home in just three days, a Tweede Divisie game versus Scheveningen. A strenuous timetable for the guests!

The attacking power of GVVV when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 10 league matches away. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. GVVV struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 16 goals conceded from these games.

Head 2 Head
