General match analysis

Ajax II sit bottom of the table in 20th place and have lost all 3 of their matches so far, conceding 11 goals in total. The hosts’ home form is particularly alarming: they score an average of 4 goals but allow their opponents as many as 6, with an xG against of 2.73 and no clean sheets. Helmond Sport are only 16th, but they have lost just 1 of their 3 league matches and conceded only 4 goals—almost three times fewer than Ajax II. The visitors create fewer high-quality chances away from home, averaging 0.63 xG, but Ajax’s defensive frailty should allow them to capitalize on their opportunities. The last five matches also offer the hosts little encouragement, as they suffered 4 defeats and conceded 13 goals. Therefore, a slight edge should be given to Helmond Sport.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

Both teams have a BTTS rate of 100% in the current league data, and neither has kept a clean sheet yet, which strongly supports a goal from each side. Ajax II have averaged 1.6 goals scored in their last 5 matches, but conceded as many as 2.6, while their average xG against is a high 2.19. Helmond Sport scored 1.0 goal per match during this period, with an xG of 1.12, while the Ajax II defence has allowed opponents an average of 1.66 xG this season. The low seasonal attacking output of Helmond, at 0.63 xG, is a note of caution; however, Ajax II have not kept a clean sheet, and both teams have recorded BTTS in 60% of their last five matches. With the league-wide average BTTS rate at 75%, the scenario of at least one goal from each team remains more likely.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

Ajax II have averaged 1.6 goals scored and as many as 2.6 conceded in their last 5 matches, resulting in a very high average of 4.2 goals per game. Over the same period, Helmond Sport averaged 1.0 goal scored and 1.0 conceded, while both teams have found the net in 100% of their matches so far this season and neither has kept a clean sheet. Ajax II’s defence allowed opponents an average of 2.19 xG in their last five appearances, while Helmond’s defence gave opponents 1.33 xG, supporting a scenario of at least two goals. The 2.5 line is more balanced, as only 60% of Ajax II’s last five matches and 20% of Helmond’s went over three goals. The strongest signal therefore comes from Over 1.5: the combination of the hosts’ weak defence, both sides’ consistent scoring and a projected total of 2.70 goals clearly points towards at least two goals.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

The strongest scenario is a draw at both half-time and full-time, as Helmond Sport were level at the break in 4 of their last 5 matches, compared with 2 of 5 for Ajax II. The visitors have shown considerably more stable results: they averaged 1.0 points over their last five matches, while the hosts averaged only 0.6, although as many as 40% of Helmond’s matches have ended in draws. Ajax II have the edge in chance creation, with an average xG of 0.97 compared with 0.63 for their opponents, as well as 3.0 shots on target per match versus 2.0, which limits the likelihood of an away win. At the same time, the hosts have conceded an average of 2.6 goals across their last five appearances, but Helmond have scored just 1.0 goal per match, making an evenly balanced finish more likely than a decisive victory for either side. Both teams have scored and conceded in 100% of their matches so far this season, further supporting a draw after both sides find the net.
