Fortuna, despite a decent home record (50% wins), has negative recent form (wdlwl) and has conceded 10 goals in their last 5 matches. The difference in team quality is also evident in the league position – Sparta in 5th place versus Fortuna in 11th. xG statistics show a slight advantage for the hosts (1.62 vs 1.48), but current form and Sparta's efficiency argue for their victory in this clash.
