Contents
Both Teams to Score – Yes
Looking at their h2h stats, both teams have scored in three out of their last five matches with two games finishing with a 1-1 scoreline. The Eagles had six BTTS matches in their last eight outings while RKC had four after the same number of games. It is interesting to notice that the home team had three games in a row with BTTS covered when playing before their fans, while the last two games were low-scoring affairs. The same stat line refers to Go Ahead Eagles as well, with their last game being a defeat at PSV by the score of 2-0.
Under 2.5 Goals
Contrary to the first option, the prediction of a low-scoring game is something that refers to their h2h stat, and the propensity of playing some low-scoring matches. They had a game where RKC won by a massive scoreline of 5-4, but that was the only game in their last five outings when those teams combined for more than two goals. When it comes to the whole season, RKC had seven ‘under' matches in 18 played, while the Eagles had ten after the same amount of matches.

Preview, Predicted Lineups, and Team News
RKC Waalwijk
RKC has done very well protecting its home turf, going for three wins with as many draw games, and losing only twice. That is the eighth-best home record in the league this season. They have also scored 18 goals in eight home matches which is impressive, there are only three teams that have a better record in that aspect, and those are Ajax, PSV, and Twente. RKC has gone unbeaten in four of their last five home matches, and with Go Ahead Eagles coming to town, they will be looking to improve that form. The Waalwijk outfit has more than one player who can get goals, and it seems that the main strength of this team is that the goalscorers are coming from different areas of the team. Even center-back Dario Van den Buijs managed to score three goals which is the third-best mark on the team. Coach Joseph Oosting has only one injury worry for the match, Julen Lobete has some health issues, and will be evaluated closer to the game whether he can get some playing time.
Predicted lineup: Vaessen, Gaari, Adewoye, Van den Buijs, Lelieveld, Oukili, Anita, Lutonda, Clement, Seuntjens, Bel Hassani.
Go Ahead Eagles
What RKC has done at home, has been countered by the Go Ahead Eagles as an away team. They have done unexpectedly well getting a couple of wins with three draws, and only losing on two occasions. They are undefeated in their last five matches as a guest team and will be looking to add to that tally when they visit Waalwijk. Just like their opponent, when it comes to conceding goals, they are doing it more than they score which could become an issue down the road as there are still a lot of seasons to play. Bas Kuipers is a long-term injury problem for the visiting team while Philippe Rommens could miss the match against RKC because of a shoulder injury.
Predicted lineup: De Lange, Deijl, Idzes, Nauber, Amofa, Edvardsen, Llansana, Tekie, Wilumsson, Lidberg, Adekanye.
Starting lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
