Willem II presents solid home form with a 40% win rate and a positive goal difference (+2) at their own stadium. The hosts possess a better xG indicator in home matches (1.84) compared to VVV's away xG (1.42), suggesting a higher quality of created chances. VVV is characterized by extreme results on the road—50% wins and 50% losses with no draws, but they concede an average of 1.6 goals per away match. A key factor is Willem II's possession advantage (54% vs 47%) and better conversion of chances in home games. The form of both teams in the last 5 matches is similar (1.4 vs 1.8 PPG); however, home advantage and xG statistics favor the hosts, though VVV's unpredictability away does not allow for ruling out a surprise.
