LDWDLW ⚖

VVV-Venlo head into the clash following on from a 4-1 Eerste Divisie win in the defeat of Helmond Sport in their last game.

In that game, VVV-Venlo had 51% possession and 23 shots on goal with 6 on target.

Dario Šits (90') scored for Helmond Sport.

The stats tell the story, and VVV-Venlo have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, conceding 10 goals in all. Defensively, VVV-Venlo can certainly do much better. We shall soon find out if that trend will end up being sustained into this next match.

Taking a look at their past results, VVV-Venlo:

• have not lost to Den Bosch in away games against them for the last 5 league matches. Away fans have certainly had plenty to cheer about.

ℹ️ Team News: Den Bosch

There aren’t many selection issues, with just a single fitness concern for the Den Bosch boss Ulrich Landvreugd to be concerned with thanks to an almost full-strength squad. Sebastian Karlsson Grach (unknown injury) is out of contention.

📋 Team News: VVV-Venlo

Thanks to a largely healthy group, there’s just the sole fitness problem for the VVV-Venlo boss John Lammers to contend with. Dylan Timber (Cruciate ligament injury) misses out for this game.

💭 Prediction

In our view, VVV-Venlo may not find it easy to be putting a goal past this Den Bosch outfit who we reckon should be able to get on the scoresheet themselves in a winning performance.

We therefore fancy a very even match with a 1-0 victory for Den Bosch at full-time.

Expecting it to be tight.
