Helmond Sport (home)
- Helmond Sport are 13th with 32 points from 27.
- Recent form: W2, D1, L2 in their last 5.
- Jurgen Seegers has done an excellent job since taking over in July 2025 and instilling a compact, 4-2-3-1 structure which his side play.
- They prioritise keeping a good shape, making it difficult for opponents to penetrate them and they will look to take advantage of their players in transitions and space behind the defence when they win possession back.
ADO Den Haag (away)
- ADO Den Haag are top of the Eerste Divisie table with 59 points from 26 matches.
- They have won their last two matches.
- ADO have won 9 of 12 away matches in the Eerste Divisie and average 2.58 goals per match on the road.
- Robin Peter has built an extremely attack minded, high-tempo team who press aggressively and are relentless in their pursuit of the ball.
- The 4-3-3 system is wing focused and aims to overload wide areas, and when they have the ball, they will control the play and pin the home side deep in their own half.
Key Players
Maik Lukowicz is the main scoring threat for the hosts, with 10 goals in 23 Eerste Divisie appearances this season and ADO Den Haag will have to be wary of the home team’s ability to create counter attacking chances.
