This Eredivisie fixture is at the home of Go Ahead Eagles, with the hosts sitting 9th on 11 points from 9 matches, while Telstar are 16th with 6 points from the same number of games. Both sides come into this off defeats in their most recent outing: the hosts were thrashed 1-4, while the visitors lost a back-and-forth 3-4. This is therefore a game where both teams want to stop their own mistakes first. Go Ahead Eagles have not won in their last five, drawing four before a heavy defeat last time out. Their attack is serviceable but the defence gives away goals easily, with 20 scored and 21 conceded in 9 matches. Telstar have also not won in their last five, but they lose by a single goal or draw consistently. Their 10 scored and 18 conceded in 9 matches says the attack is still thin but they are not being blown away. This game is likely to see the hosts dominate possession and push high, while Telstar sit deep and wait to counter. If the hosts still cannot close out games early as before, the match will drag on and could easily end tight. The first thing to watch after kickoff is whether Go Ahead Eagles can score first, because if the game drags on, Telstar have a chance to take a good result home.
