Helmond Sport
- Helmond Sport are winless in their last five Eerste Divisie matches, drawing four and losing one.
- Seegers has set up a 4-2-3-1 system which makes the most of Helmond Sport’s pacey wide players and ability to turn over the ball quickly, but they need more goals.
FC Den Bosch
- FC Den Bosch are also on a poor run of form, failing to win any of their last five league matches (D2, L3).
- Landvreugd’s Den Bosch are set up to play a more positive style and have been a front foot side since the Dutchman took charge in November 2024.
- The players press well in unison and rotate positions effectively, but they can allow their intensity to drop and have been in a rut in recent weeks.
Head-to-Head
The head-to-head record suggests FC Den Bosch will have the better of this one, but they are winless in their last two away visits to Helmond and have conceded 2.25 goals per away game in Eerste Divisie 2025/2026, which suggests they are vulnerable.
Key Players
- Maik Lukowicz is Helmond Sport’s biggest threat with 10 goals in 22 league games, but Helmond will have to contend with Sebastian Karlsson Grach, scoring two of Den Bosch’s last six goals.
- However, Ulrich Landvreugd’s Den Bosch also have a proven poacher in Kevin Monzialo, who has 13 goals in 25 appearances to his name.
Betting Insights
- Helmond Sport have won six, drawn three and lost four of their 13 home games in the Eerste Divisie 2025/2026, while scoring 23 goals in 13 home games.
- Den Bosch have won four, drawn one and lost seven of their 12 Eerste Divisie 2025/2026 away games, so this is anyone’s game.
- They average 1.50 goals scored and concede 2.25 per away match in the league.
- With neither side looking in great shape and with a number of factors to consider, the safer bet is on ‘Over 2.5 goals’ at 1.55.
