Go Ahead Eagles vs Telstar: match statistics
Go Ahead Eagles displays significantly better home form with a 33% win rate and an impressive goal difference of +3 at their own stadium, averaging 1.67 goals per match. The hosts also boast a higher shot conversion rate (13% vs 7%) and ball possession dominance (53% vs 41%), indicating superiority in game control. Telstar shows serious problems in away matches, losing as many as 50% of games, and in 40% of cases failing to score, with a negative goal difference of -6. The difference in expected goals (xG For: 1.61 vs 1.3) along with better defensive stats from the hosts (22% clean sheets vs 30% for the visitors, but with fewer goals conceded) further supports a victory for Go Ahead Eagles.
