Excelsior, Recent FormThe Excelsior squad will be looking to reset their fortunes after their heavy 3-0 home defeat at the hands of NEC Nijmegen. Their share of possession in that meeting was 46%, while racking up 9 shots along the way, 1 of which were on target, in contrast to NEC Nijmegen, who had 19 shots on goal with 8 on target.
Marinus Dijkhuizen, their chief, will be doing some careful analysis of his defence, who have seen their goal breached 12 times in their last 6 games while somehow managing to pick up some points along the way with 7 goals scored. They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games, and so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 27 of their 32 games overall.
They've had a terrible run of form at Van Donge & De Roo Stadion recently and having lost 4 of their last 6 home games managing just 1 win. Their performance in the league at Van Donge & De Roo Stadion this season has been disappoinitng to date, winning just 3 of 16 league games.
Goalscorer Lazaros Lamprou will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Excelsior.
Heracles Almelo, Recent FormHeracles Almelo boss Erwin van de Looi will need to instil positive feelings within his team after they endured a 5-0 home mauling from RKC Waalwijk. They came away from that fixture with a 53% share of the possession and clocked up 15 attempts on goal with 5 on target, in comparison to RKC Waalwijk, who managed 19 attempts on goal, 10 of which were on target.
van de Looi will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 12 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 8 goals they managed at the other end. They have conceded at least one goal in 15 of their 16 away games this season.
They've had a dismal run of form on their travels recently, losing all but 1 of their last 6 away games, a solitary win providing little consolation.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Heracles Almelo, Jizz Hornkamp will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
The last league encounter between these two sides concluded with a 3-1 win for Heracles Almelo.
