Betting suggestion:

This will be a very important match for both clubs in the Eerste Divisie 2024/2025. Excelsior need a win to stay in contention for the title and with a good lead in the direct access zone, while ADO are defending their place in the playoff zone and could even gain positions. We're backing Excelsior to win the game because it's worth noting that in their last head-to-head, on 30-08-2024, in the first round of this season's league, Excelsior won 0-5 away from home to record their third consecutive victory over ADO. It's also worth noting that Excelsior are the best home side in the league and have won 8 of the 10 games played at their stadium.

At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history indicates total balance between these two teams, since there is a record of 1 draw and 1 win for each team in the last 3 matches.

Although this is a match between 2nd and 5th of the league table, it’s actually a match between the 2nd best in home matches and the 15th best in away matches.

Analysis Excelsior

After 12 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses, the home team is in the 2nd position, havinf won 42 points so far. In the last match, they have lost in an away match against SC Cambuur by (1‑0), after in the previous match they have won (1‑0) at home, against FC Dordrecht. This is a team that usually plays better at home, where they have won 25 points, against only 17 points in away matches. For the league, Excelsior won 25 points out of 30 possible points, after 8 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the last 10 home matches. Defensive consistency has been one of their best features, as they have only conceded goals in 3 of the last 10 matches, and their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 22 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have only turned the score around in 2. In the last 10 home matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (0'‑15').

Excelsior are trying to consolidate their position as runners-up and are still dreaming of the Eerste Divisie 2024/2025 title. The team is the best home side in the league (83% record with 25 points from 10 games) and also has the best defense in the competition (21 goals conceded in 22 games, an average of 0.9 goals conceded per matchday), as well as the second-highest clean sheet record (they haven't conceded a goal in 9 of their 21 games). Coach Ruben den Uil will be able to repeat the starting line-up of the past season, based on a 4-2-3-1 tactical formation, with Calvin Raatsie standing out, who is second in both the clean sheet ranking (9 out of 20 appearances in total) and the goalkeeper with the fewest clean sheets (average of 0.85 goals conceded, having conceded 17 goals during the 20 games he has played). The absentees have been midfielders Lennard Hartjes, who has been injured since 10-01-2025, and Belgian Xander Blomme, who has been injured since matchday 3 on 25-08-2024.

Confirmed Lineup: Calvin Raatsie, Arthur Zagre, Ilias Bronkhorst, Casper Widell, Django Warmerdam, Noah Naujoks, Lance Duijvestijn, Cedric Hatenboer, Jerolldino Armantrading, Derensili Sanches Fernandes, Seydou Fini.
Coach: M. Dijkhuizen.

Analysis ADO

The away team is currently in the 5th position of the league, with 34 points won, after 9 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against TOP Oss, by (1‑0). In the last match, they won in a home match against Helmond Sport, by (3‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 10 points in away matches and 24 at their stadium, with 19 goals scored and 13 conceded at home, against 17 goals scored and 13 conceded in away matches. Their last away match was for the Club Friendlies and ended in a loss by (2‑1) against Telstar. In the last 9 away league matches ADO has a record of 2 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 27 possible. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 21 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

ADO are within the qualifying zone for the playoffs and could gain positions if they win. The team is on the back of 3 consecutive wins in the Eerste Divisie 2024/2025, but it's also true that they've lost their last 2 games and failed to win in their most recent 3 away games. The team stands out for being the second highest scorers (average of 16.3 shots per game) and also the third highest shooters (5.9 shots per game). Bosnian coach Darije Kalezic will have to change his starting line-up, based on a 4-2-3-1 tactical formation, because Finnish defender Diogo Tomas will serve an automatic suspension for the straight red card he received in the last game, which also raised doubts about the status of left winger Joel Ideho, who went off injured in the final minutes of the first half. If he is ruled out by the doctors, Finn de Bruin is likely to be chosen as his replacement. Defender Milan Hokke, meanwhile, has been sidelined since suffering a knee injury on matchday 9 on 04-10-2024. The highlight of the squad is attacking midfielder and captain Alex Schalk, the third highest finisher in the league (average of 4.1 shots per appearance).

Confirmed Lineup: Kilian Nikiema, Steven van der Sloot, Taneli Hämäläinen, Matteo Waem, Sekou Sylla, Jari Vlak, Finn de Bruin, Juho Kilo, Lee Bonis, Alex Schalk, Daryl van Mieghem.
Coach: R. Brood.
