ADO Den Haag vs Twente Predictions

• Den Haag have won their last two meetings with Twente.
• Seven points separate the pair ahead of kickoff.
• Den Haag currently occupy one of the automatic relegation places.
• Twente have lost their last two away games in the Eredivisie.

Den Haag have had the better of Twente over the last few years

Den Haag have won four of their last six league games against Twente, only losing once during that period, and over 2.5 goals have been scored in five of the pairs’ last six encounters so you can see why we have backed at least three goals to be scored and for Den Haag to pinch a much-needed three points.

Over 2.5 goals were produced in three of Den Haag’s and five of Twente’s last six matches and 43% of Den Haag’s home games have produced over 2.5 goals while 86% of Twente’s away games have seen at least three goals scored. Both teams scored in 57% of Den Haag’s home games and in 71% of Twente’s away games, which adds weight to our prediction of a 2-1 final scoreline this weekend.

Den Haag’s home games average 3.00 goals and Twente’s away games average 3.43 goals, providing more reasons to back over 2.5 goals to be scored in Saturday’s clash. Den Haag have scored 8 goals at home and have conceded 13 goals and Twente have scored 9 goals on the road and have conceded 15 goals, and it is the visitor’s slightly worse defensive record that suggests Den Haag can win this weekends’ match.

Twente have not been performing on the road of late

Twente have only kept clean sheets in 14% of their away games and the same can be said for Den Haag’ home games this season, with Twente also failing to score in 29% of their away games and Den Haag failing to score in the same percentage of their home games. 43% of Twente’s away games have produced exactly three goals and a majority of Twente’s defeats have had a one-goal margin this season, with the visitors conceding two goals or more in each of their last five away games.

We’re confident that over 2.5 goals will be produced in Saturday’s clash and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-1 in favour of Den Haag. The hosts aren’ the form favourites and haven’t been playing well enough at home this season but do have an excellent record against their guests in recent years and Twente have struggled on the road of late.
