De Graafschap

WDLLWL

De Graafschap will be hoping for a better result following the 2-1 Eerste Divisie defeat last time out to VVV-Venlo.

The only scorer from De Graafschap was Devin Haen (50'). Robin Lathouwers (49') and Daan Huisman (93') scored for VVV-Venlo.

De Graafschap have not been the best at stopping their opponents recently, although they’ve also managed to hit the back of the net themselves. Analysis of their previous 6 games shows that De Graafschap have conceded in 6 of them while also managing to get on the scoresheet in 5 of those games. Such a trend won’t necessarily follow through into this game, though.

Going into this contest, De Graafschap have not won against Den Bosch in their last 3 league matches.

For Den Bosch, goals were scored by Ilias Boumassaoudi (21') and Nick de Groot (63'). Álvaro Peña (33') and Hamdi Akujobi (51') scored for Almere City.

The strike force from Den Bosch have suffered from a lack of goals over their last six clashes, recording the poor return of only 4. In those matches, Blue White Dragons have also seen the overall goal tally of opposing teams equal 7.
