NAC Breda

WWLWDL

NAC Breda will be hoping to return to winning ways here after a 0-1 Eerste Divisie defeat in their last game at the hands of Go Ahead Eagles.

In that match, NAC Breda had 51% possession and 5 attempts on goal with 0 of them on target. On the other side, Go Ahead Eagles had 23 shots on goal with 6 of them on target. Jeroen Veldmate (30') scored for Go Ahead Eagles.

It has been seldom in recent games that NAC Breda haven’t conceded. In fact, De Parel van het Zuiden have been scored against in 6 of their previous 6 games, letting in 9 goals on the way. Such a pattern isn’t assured to follow through into this game, however.

Jong Utrecht

LLLLWL

Following on from tasting defeat last time out to De Graafschap in Eerste Divisie competition, Jong Utrecht and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

In that game, Jong Utrecht managed 48% possession and 9 shots at goal with 3 on target. De Graafschap had 12 shots at goal with 5 on target. Daryl van Mieghem (22') scored for De Graafschap.

The stats tell the story, and Jong Utrecht have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 matches, letting opponents get 14 goals overall. In defence, Jong Utrecht seem to have a bit of a soft underbelly.
