This game is likely to come late and be decided at the end, as both teams score most of their goals in the 76-90 minute period (Harkemase Boys 25%, Excelsior '31 29%). Meanwhile, Harkemase Boys concede as much as 27% of their goals in the late stages, which is also their highest. The home side's form in the last 5 matches shows 4 wins from 5 (2-1, 1-0, 5-3), but their defense still concedes a lot, especially in the latest match which they won 5-3. Excelsior '31, on the other hand, are on a winning run of 5 matches, but their opponents in the lower league may not be a good benchmark. So this game is likely to be an open, entertaining exchange, and the decisive moment should come in the 76-90 minute period when both sides stretch the game, and Harkemase Boys, who are good at scoring late, will get chances on the counter.
