Match Preview
As VVV-Venlo prepares to host Helmond Sport at Covebo Stadion - De Koel on Saturday, both teams are seeking to turn their fortunes around in the Eerste Divisie. VVV-Venlo enters the match with a mixed bag of results, having lost three of their last five games but managing to secure a win in their most recent outing. In contrast, Helmond Sport is struggling significantly, with five consecutive losses that have left them at the bottom of the form table.
A notable angle for this fixture is VVV-Venlo's strong home advantage, evidenced by their historical performance against Helmond Sport. In their last ten encounters, VVV has won four times at home and drawn three, suggesting they are comfortable facing this opponent on familiar turf. Additionally, with six of those meetings seeing over 2.5 goals, the potential for a high-scoring match could be on the cards. Both teams will be eager to find their rhythm, but VVV-Venlo's home form and head-to-head record make them the favourites to secure the three points.
