Willem II displays solid home form with 50% wins at their own stadium and an impressive +6 goal difference in home matches. The hosts have won 3 of their last 5 games, conceding only 3 goals in that period, which attests to a stable defense. Den Bosch, on the other hand, has very poor away results - 57% losses on foreign grounds and a negative goal difference of -11. The visitors concede an average of 2.21 goals per away match, which, given Willem II's efficiency (averaging 1.29 goals in home matches), gives the hosts a clear advantage. Additionally, Willem II has better xG statistics in home matches (1.8) than Den Bosch does away (1.32), confirming the higher quality of chances created by the hosts. All indicators point to a favorable result for Willem II, although Den Bosch's experience in scoring goals (1.43 average away) does not allow a draw to be ruled out.
