Go Ahead Eagles vs Willem II Predictions

• Go Ahead Eagles failed to keep a clean sheet in seven of their last eight home games.
• Willem II managed a 2-2 draw with AZ in their first game under Kevin Hofland.
• 64% of the games Hofland has managed in the Netherlands saw both teams score (7/11).

Can the Eagles make it three in a row?

After winning back-to-back games ahead of this, Go Ahead Eagles are not looking over their shoulders at all and their position in the top-flight is all but secure.

However, the hosts are realistically not going to challenge for Europe but they can at least register a third straight league victory for the first time since October should they see off the challenge of Willem II.

Four of the Eagles’ last five home games saw both teams score until their 3-0 demolition job of Cambuur last time out here, though the hosts have not recorded back-to-back home shutouts since September, suggesting they could well be breached.

New manager bounce is yet to click

Willem II will remain outside of the bottom-three no matter what happens here, though they will be vulnerable with defeat.

New boss Kevin Hofland has been tasked with saving the Tilburg outfit from the drop, though he is yet to win in his two games in charge (D1, L1). However, a two-goal return against a tough AZ side did provide encouragement in his opener.

We think that G.A Eagles will likely have enough to win this game, but we predict that both teams to score is the way to go here. Willem are bound to bounce back at some stage under the new manager and this could be the perfect opportunity against a mid-table team.
