Twente are 4th and have won 3 of their last 5 matches, while 13th-placed Excelsior have failed to win during that period and have suffered 4 defeats. The visitors scored 9 goals in those five matches, compared with just 4 for the hosts, highlighting a clear gap in their current attacking form. Away from home, Twente average 1.8 goals with an xG of 1.88, while Excelsior score 1.25 goals per game at home with an xG of 1.32. The hosts’ biggest weakness is their defense: they concede an average of 2.5 goals per home match and have let in 14 goals across their last five fixtures, compared with 4 conceded by Twente over the same period. Although the visitors have drawn 40% of their away matches, their superior form and the quality of chances they create point to a Twente win.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Both teams have scored in 60% of their matches, compared with a league average of 72%, which supports a BTTS - Yes pick. Excelsior average 2.0 goals at home and generate 2.59 xG, giving them a clear basis to score despite Twente’s solid defense. The visitors average 1.8 goals, while Excelsior have conceded as many as 2.8 goals per match over their last 5 outings, significantly boosting Twente’s chances of finding the net. Some caution is warranted given the hosts’ recent scoring form—just 0.8 goals per match in their last 5 appearances—but their attacking potential at home tips the assessment in favor of Goal/Goal.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
The strongest pick is Over 1.5 goals: this line has been cleared in 80% of both teams’ matches, while the league average is 3.8 goals. Excelsior have conceded 14 goals in their last 5 matches, or 2.8 per game, while Twente have scored 9 goals over the same period, averaging 1.8. Although Excelsior have recently scored just 0.8 goals per game, they average 2.59 xG at home, giving the hosts a chance to contribute to the scoreline. The Over 2.5 goals line is less strongly supported, having been cleared in 60% of Excelsior’s matches and 40% of Twente’s; therefore, Over 1.5 goals offers the safer edge.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
A draw at half-time is likely, as Excelsior were level at the break in 60% of their home matches, while Twente were level at half-time in 80% of their away games. Twente’s current form supports a later away win: they have won 3 of their last 5 matches, while Excelsior have not won any and have conceded an average of 2.8 goals, compared with 0.8 for Twente. In the second half of those five matches, Excelsior conceded an average of 1.8 goals, while Twente scored 1.0, increasing the visitors’ chances of deciding the match after the break. The X/2 pick nevertheless carries some risk, as Excelsior won 80% of the home matches considered and recorded an xG of 2.59 in them, compared with Twente’s 1.88 away from home; despite the hosts’ advantage in these figures, their recent results point towards the visitors.
