ADO Den Haag vs Willem II Predictions

Den Haag lost 1-0 away at fellow strugglers Fortuna Sittard before the international break and could really use a win this weekend as they sit fourth from bottom in the Eredivisie table. Willem II provide the opposition this weekend and will be hoping to build upon their 2-1 win at home against PSV last time out with another three points on Saturday.

All of the stats suggest that we will be in for a low-scoring ninety minutes between these two sides and we have backed Willem II to continue their good run of form courtesy of a 1-0 win.

Willem II have won four of their last six matches in all competitions while Den Haag have lost four of their last six and there is already a gap of twelve points between the pair. Den Haag have only managed to win one and have lost four of their six home games this season, while their guests this weekend have picked up three wins from their six away games. Den Haag have failed to score in three of their last six matches, losing on each occasion, while Willem II have kept clean sheets in two of their last three away games and won both of those matches.

The hosts average 0.83 goals per home game having only scored five times in front of their own fans this season. Willem II have netted eight times on the road so far this season which works out at 1.33 goals per game, and this is why we believe the visitors will pinch a 1-0 win this weekend. Under 2.5 goals have been produced in four of Den Haag’s last six matches as well as in three of Willem II’s last six outings, but the visitors have only lost one of those games while the hosts have been beaten in two of theirs.

Den Haag have failed to score in 33% of their home games this season and have lost-to-nil in 33% of the matches played in front of their own fans, while have scored at least one goal before halftime in 83% of their away games. The hosts have only managed to keep clean sheets in 17% of their home games in the Eredivisie and have never scored in both halves of any of the six matches played in front of their own fans, and this is why they sit so low in the table and why we expect them to lose this weekend.

We’re confident that under 2.5 goals will be produced in Saturday’s clash and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-0 in favour of the visitors. Willem II arrive as the clear form favourites and with a decent record on the road, while Den Haag have really struggled at home and head into this weekends’ clash with just one win from their last six games in all competitions.
