Both Teams to Score – Yes
Emmen vs Go Ahead Eagles will be about who is going to keep the clean sheet. It sounds simple, doesn't it? But, it is a bit more complicated when it comes to these teams who have all sorts of problems with their defense. Emmen allowed 38 goals this term while the Eagles are at 37. The home team had only two BTTS games in their last five league encounters, but against their opponents this week they had three BTTS games in the past five. Go Ahead Eagles also had only two matches when both teams scored a goal when we look at their recent five encounters. The reason we are going with this prediction revolves around the way these teams have been scoring goals, Emmen at home, or Go Ahead Eagles away. Emmen failed to score at home twice in the past five matches, on the other hand, the Eagles had scored in four away matches from the past five played.
Emmen to Win
This Emmen vs Go Ahead Eagles prediction is about the dominance of the home team. The last time the Eagles won at Emmen was almost 15 years ago. Of course, their history is a long one, but the last time they played in the Eredivisie was in 2017. Emmen has won three out of their last five matches at home against the Eagles while the other games ended in a draw. Emmen's home form is decent this season, they have only two wins, but they also lost twice while drawing seven times. Go Ahead Eagles have lost three straight-away matches and five overall.

Preview, Team Information, and Emmen vs Go Ahead Eagles Lineups
Emmen
The home team has done well in their last five games getting one win and two draws. They are currently in a position that would allow them to play a ‘stay-in-the-league' playoff match against a selected Second Division side. But, as there are still 16 rounds of matches to be played, there is plenty of time to get extra points and possibly avoid that scenario. Emmen will be without Jeff Hardeveld, Maikel Kieftenbeld, Rui Mendes, Oussama Darfalou, Metehan Guclu, and Mart Lieder are injured. Mike te Wierik is suspended.
Possible lineup: van der Hart, Bouchouari, Heylen, Araujo, Dirksen, El Messaoudi, Veendorp, Bernadou, Diemers, Antonisse, Zivkovic.
Go Ahead Eagles
The Eagles kept their position in the middle of the rankings for much of the season, but it was inevitable that with the limited quality they possess in their tea,m that things will get harder going forward. They are still in a good position when it comes to keeping their place in Eredivisie, but they need something positive to make sure things don't get complicated. Bas Kuipers and Oliver Valaker Edvardsen are missing the match through injuries.
Possible lineup: De Lange, Deijl, Nauber, Amofa, Fontan, Willumsson, Idzes, Rommens, Adekanye, Lidberg, Stokkers.
