AZ II vs Den Bosch: match statistics
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.
