MVV Maastricht
- MVV Maastricht averages 2.0 goals per game at home against Helmond Sport and Helmond Sport averages 1.0 goals as visitors.
- MVV’s home record this season stands at W6, D4, L7 from 17.
Helmond Sport
- Helmond Sport have failed to win in their last three away games (D1, L2).
- Helmond’s away record is W2, D3, L12.
Head-to-Head
- The visitors’ approach is often to get the ball forward quickly and look to dominate second balls, rather than dominate possession.
- So Friday’s game should be a duel between the wide areas and midfield discipline, with MVV’s compact block against Helmond’s direct transitional play.
Key Players
- Maik Lukowicz, who has hit ten goals in 29 Eerste Divisie 2025/2026 appearances this term, is Helmond Sport’s primary attacking threat and is good value to score anytime on Friday night.
- Sven Braken leads the line for MVV and has seven goals in 31 league games this term.

- Maik Lukowicz is highlighted as good value to score anytime.
