WILLEM II vs VITESSE
Willem II registered their first opening-day win of this Eredivisie stint last weekend. Notably though, Willem were one of just two sides to earn less points at home than away in 2018/19 (45.45%), partly due to conceding at least twice in five of their last six Eredivisie home matches. |
Regardless of their defensive shortcomings at home, Willem II fans in attendance can expect to see action from the off. Just two of Willem’s 2018/19 home league matches saw a goalless first-half (11.76%), while more than half (58.82%) saw over 1.5 first-half goals. |
In keeping with the expectation of a pulsating start, Vitesse’s 2018/19 away league matches saw (on average) 1.58 total goals per game in the first-half alone. Vitesse also scored a whopping 68% (17) of their 25 away league goals before the break. |
Visiting coach Leonid Slutsky has won both of his prior encounters vs Adrie Koster’s Willem, with over 3.5 goals scored in both games. Meanwhile, Koster has won just two of his 16 prior H2Hs with Vitesse (W2, D6, L8) with the last nine matches in that category returning (on average) 4.82 total goals per-match. |
Players to watch: Willem’s Ché Nunnely completed more dribbles (five) and created more scoring opportunities (four) than any other player on the opening day. |
Matúš Bero scored the opener and was booked on the opening day. He has now received four yellows, a red, and scored twice across his last five Vitesse appearances! |
Stat attack: 14 of Willem’s last 16 Eredivisie matches have produced over 2.5 total goals. |
Six of Vitesse’s last seven Eredivisie away matches (W1, D3, L3) have seen both teams score. |
Each of the last four Eredivisie H2Hs to produce a half-time leader to-nil have seen the trailing team score in the second half. |
This includes the last three top-flight league H2Hs in succession. |
