The match promises to be an even clash between two teams with similar disposition. AZ II occupies 18th place in the table and has catastrophic home form with 85% losses at home, however, the last 5 overall matches show improvement (3 wins, 1.8 points per match). Den Bosch, from 10th position, also presents weak away form (62% losses away) and has earned just 1 point per match in the last 5 games. Both teams have an identical goal difference at their respective venues (-11), similar average goals scored (1.31 vs 1.38), and a high average of goals conceded (2.15 vs 2.23). Taking into account the weak form of both teams at their respective venues and the balanced offensive and defensive strength, a draw seems the most probable outcome, although a slight xG advantage for the hosts (1.71 vs 1.35) and better recent overall form give them minimally higher chances for a favorable result.
