Twente :

The home team is currently in 12th place, with 9 points won, after 3 wins and 6 losses. In the penultimate game, lost outside Willem II by (3-1). In the last game, he won at home against Roda JC by (3-0). This is a stronger team with the support of his fans, since in the last 30 games he has 4 wins, 2 draws and 9 losses as a visitor; against 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses in his stadium. In the last match he played for KNVB Beker, he beat FC Eindhoven at home (3-0). In their last four home matches for the championship, FC Twente won 3 and lost 1, so they won 9 points in 12 chances. His defense has not been very solid, having suffered goals in 7 of the last 9 games for this competition. In 9 games in this tournament, he suffered the first goal 5 times and never got the comeback.

The home team is currently ranked 12th in the national championship standings, with 9 points drawn in nine matches, having so far had three wins and six defeats. They scored a total of twelve goals, suffered another twelve and have a balance of zero goals.
After a bad start to competition, full of defeats, the team began to score in the championship. However, it is a score still without consistency and fails to maintain a positive sequence of good exhibitions, as it is alternating between victories and defeats in the championship. Curiously, they have not yet tied for the competition. They have an offensive system that scores on average one goal per game, but the weakness of the team is their defensive sector, which suffers goals consistently. Acting at home usually gets his best shows and comes from a positive sequence of three consecutive victories.
His goal at the moment is to distance himself from the drop zone and to win this game would cause him to continue outside of it, in addition to surpassing his opponent in the table. For the balance of negative goals that the teams that are in the downhill zone possess, a draw is necessary to continue outside, but a defeat in this game can cause them to re-enter that zone. Their last game in the league was acting at home, against the Roda, and won the game by the score of 3-0.

Excelsior:

The visiting team is currently in 11th place, with 11 points won, after 3 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses. In the penultimate game, he won out against ADO Den Haag by (1-2). In the last game, tied at home against Sparta Rotterdam by (1-1). This is a team that curiously tends to win more positive results as a visitor than at home, since in the last 30 games has 9 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses as a visitor, with 24 goals scored and 15 suffered; against 4 wins, 4 draws and 7 defeats in his stadium, with 17 goals scored and 21 suffered. For the championship, the Excelsior conquered 10 points in 12 possible, after 3 victories and 1 tie in the last 4 parties that disputed like visitor.

For this competition, he did not lose any of the last 4 games as a visitor. The team allowed goals to the opponent in 8 of the last 9 matches for this competition, reason why it was not very strong defensively. In 9 games in this tournament, he suffered the first goal 4 times and never got the comeback. There was 1 period in the last 5 games as a visitor for all competitions: he scored 3 of his 8 goals in the minutes (0’-15 ‘).

The visiting team is in eleventh place in the national championship qualifying table, with 11 points won in nine matches played. So far they had three wins, two draws and four losses. They scored ten goals, suffered thirteen and have a negative balance of three goals.
As his opponent did not start the competition well and so far still did not show a good level of play. Their matches hardly finish without goals and their defensive system still needs to improve its performance, since they suffer goals constantly. His attack is efficient, but he needs to do even more, because due to the irregularity of his defense, he needs to score more goals to have greater peace of mind in the match. He comes from two games without defeats, but nothing that excites his fans too much, because they were very tight results against teams of poor technical quality. As visitors, they get their best results and do not lose four games ago.
Their goal in the competition is to stay among the top seven and beat this game, as well as other favorable combinations of results, will end the day where they want to be. If they lose or draw, they will be closer to the drop zone, but will not yet enter it. But defeat would make them overcome by their adversary. Their last game of the competition was acting at home, against Sparta Rotterdam, and they were with a tie by 1-1.
