Victories have not come easily for Excelsior Maassluis so far, and that also applies to Scheveningen. These struggling sides eye some vital points here.

Insights:
  • Scheveningen have the fewest scored goals in the first half (8) in Tweede Divisie

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Scheveningen have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 3-2-1 (win-draw-loss) from six matches.

This could be an intriguing game with lots of fun and bustle as both squads are well recovered since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
