Jong PSV
- Jong PSV sit fifth in the Eerste Divisie with 37 points from 23 games, a solid position considering their focus is the development of players rather than results.
- In their last 5 matches, Jong PSV have beaten Helmond Sport 4-0 at home, lost 5-3 at Jong FC Utrecht and played out a 0-0 draw with TOP Oss.
- High pressing, attacking football and a positive outlook have been the hallmarks of Jong PSV’s season to date.
Cambuur Leeuwarden
- Henk de Jong’s men are 2nd in the Eerste Divisie with 50 points from 22 matches, making them serious contenders for promotion to the Eredivisie this season.
- The Dutch coach has established a structured, possession-based system that doesn’t overburden his players and creates a balanced platform for the squad.
- There is discipline in the team out of possession and they don’t take any unnecessary risks, instead preferring to dominate the midfield and create plenty of chances by controlling the ball.
- Cambuur arrive on the back of two consecutive 0-0 draws with 8640 and FC Emmen, both of which can be considered good results.
Head-to-Head
- Cambuur Leeuwarden are unbeaten in 5 matches, winning 2 and drawing 3.
- The visitors have won the last three meetings with Jong PSV, including a 5-3 home win in the Eerste Divisie four months ago.
Key Players
- Oscar Sjoestrand leads the scoring for Cambuur with 9 goals from 22 appearances in the Eerste Divisie this season, so he will be a key player for the promotion chasers on Monday.
- Robin van Duiven is the hero for Jong PSV with 14 Eerste Divisie goals from 21 matches this term and with Joel van den Berg also in form with three goals in his last 5 games, there’s plenty of firepower to go with their exciting style of play.
Betting Insights
- The odds of 1.77 for Cambuur are very fair in this matchup and much superior to Jong PSV, who are 3.85 for the victory.
- Over 2.5 goals at 1.35 also appeals here as Jong PSV concede plenty at home.
- They have allowed 15 in 11 home Eerste Divisie matches, averaging 1.36 goals per game.
Prediction
