Jong Sparta form and stats

Jong Sparta have played 5 Tweede Divisie games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-2-0 (wins-draws-losses). There’s a good atmosphere here at Sparta-Stadion Het Kasteel after three straight home wins.

Jong Sparta travelled for their previous game, a trip to IJsselmeervogels that ended 3-3. There was plenty of action in the dying minutes of the game against IJsselmeervogels as Rosario's goal in the 90th minute completed a cancellation of 0-2 and secured a draw after 90 minutes.

Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Scheveningen.

Goals decide football matches and Sparta are scoring many of them at home; 12 on target from 5 league matches. From these home matches, Jong Sparta have conceded only 3 goals.

TEC form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Tweede Divisie travels is 1 win, 1 draw and 3 defeats.

TEC played 2-2 against Koninklijke HFC in their previous match.

A 2-2 draw was the result before that, hosting IJsselmeervogels.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the TEC manager de Haar as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Spakenburg.

The attacking power of TEC when travelling is not overwhelming with 4 goals scored from 5 league matches away. TEC's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 9 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

Jong Sparta have avoided defeat in the last 4 fixtures (2-2-0) facing TEC.
