Jong Ajax vs Helmond Sport Live Stream, Predictions

📊 Form Guide

Jong Ajax

DLDDLL 📉

Jong Ajax will be hoping to return to winning ways here after the 1-0 Eerste Divisie defeat last time out to FC Oss.

Jan Lammers (9') was the scorer for FC Oss.

Jong Ajax have been conceding pretty frequently of late, but they have also done enough to hit the back of the net themselves. Analysis of their previous 6 games shows that Jong Ajax have been punished defensively in 6 of them while also getting on the scoresheet in 5 of those matches.

Pre-game facts show that Jong Ajax:

• have not lost a league tie with Helmond Sport in their previous 10 games. Quite a long unbeaten run against them.
• have not won at home in their last 4 league matches. That's never good.

Helmond Sport

LWLDDW ⚖

Helmond Sport will come into the clash following a 5-2 Eerste Divisie win in the defeat of FC Dordrecht in their most recent match.

For Helmond Sport, the goals were scored by Karim Loukili (45', 48', 70'), Sander Vereijken (53') and Maxime De Bie (63'). Kevin Jansen (1') and Nikolas Agrafiotis (23') scored for FC Dordrecht.

The stats tell the story, and Helmond Sport have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing opposing sides hit 10 goals in total. At the back, Helmond just haven’t been too solid at all. We will just have to see whether or not that trend will end up being sustained here.

Their past results show that Helmond Sport:

• have left without a victory over Jong Ajax in away games against them for the last 5 matches in the league. Not good at all.
• haven't been defeated in their previous 2 away league matches.
• are without an away win for the past 5 matches in the league.
