Excelsior Preview – Can Excelsior open their account at home?
If you want to see plenty of goals you could do worse than watch Excelsior as the hosts have been involved in no fewer than 21 goals in their first three matches of this new Eerste Divisie season, recording two wins and losing once to date.
Back-to-back away wins at PSV ‘B’ 6-1 and 3-1 at Dordrecht have been either side of an extraordinary 6-4 defeat at home to Almere City, but goals have been in abundance and this trend looks likely to continue in Tuesday night’s clash with Telstar.
Excelsior ended last season’s Eerste Divisie campaign with a five-match unbeaten run on home turf (which included 29 goals in total!) and their last meeting at home against Telstar produced a 3-3 draw, while Excelsior are unbeaten in their last five meetings at home against their visitors.
Telstar Preview – Can Telstar keep pace with hosts?
It’s been a mixed start to this season’s Eerste Divisie campaign for Tuesday night’s visitors, Telstar, as they’ve drawn 2-2 at home with Volendam, registered a 3-2 win away from home at Eindhoven, but then suffered a 2-1 defeat at home to MVV Maastricht last Monday evening.
Telstar narrowly missed out on the play-offs for promotion at the end of last term, finishing in 10th place and just one point behind 8th placed finishers, NEC Breda, but they found wins hard to come by on the road towards the end of the last campaign.
Despite possessing an overall away record which ended up at 4-7-3 26/27, Telstar failed to win any of their last five away matches which included four draws, so it may be worthwhile using the handicap for this fixture to help cover the possibility of another stalemate here.
