Match Preview
Helmond Sport hosts Jong AZ at the SolarUnie Stadion on Friday evening, with both teams looking to improve their standings in the Eerste Divisie. Helmond Sport has struggled recently, managing just one draw in their last five matches, while Jong AZ has shown signs of recovery with two wins in their last three outings. The home side will be keen to leverage their home advantage, but their defensive frailties have been evident, conceding in four of their last five games. A notable trend in their head-to-head encounters is the propensity for goals, with seven of the last ten matches seeing over 2.5 goals scored. Both teams have also demonstrated a tendency to find the net, with eight of those ten meetings featuring both teams scoring. Given Helmond's recent struggles and Jong AZ's improving form, this match could well see an entertaining contest with plenty of chances. Expect a high-tempo game that could easily surpass the 2.5-goal mark, making it a compelling fixture for fans and neutrals alike.
