Command Analysis

Helmond Sport

Current form
Helmond Sport had a great start and managed to become the division leader after ten matches. The team is in second place in the standings, behind Den Bosch only on additional indicators. So far, the hosts have suffered only one defeat - they lost at home to Volendam (2:3) in the seventh round. The fate of that match was decided by an own goal by van Hove in the second minute of stoppage time. However, this disappointing defeat did not knock the team off track. After that, they managed to win away against Jong PSV (3:1) and Jong AZ Alkmaar (3:2), and at home the team played a draw with Jong Ajax (2:2).
Disqualifications and injuries
Mohamed Amin Doudah, Michel Ludwig and Floor Van Den Eynden will be out of action due to injuries, while Sam Bisselink is also in doubt.
Interesting trends for betting
- The team has won five of its last seven matches.
- The club have scored in each of their last seven home matches
Estimated lineup : Van der Steen - Pachonik, Halhal, Scholz, Absalem - Dizdarevich, Ostrz, Mallakhi - Goliar, Danils, Sits

Roda JC Kerkrade

Current form
Last season, Roda had a great chance to get into the Premier Division, but in the fight for a direct ticket on additional indicators, they lost to Groningen, taking third place, and in the play-offs, they lost without a chance to Breda (1:3 and 0:5). In this championship, the team has not yet been able to repeat this result, occupying only 11th place in the standings. However, the situation is not hopeless, because they are only two points away from the play-off zone. Recently, the team was on a five-match unbeaten streak, but in the last round, the club from Kerkrade suffered a big loss to Den Haag (0:3) in an away match.
Disqualifications and injuries
Ken Jansen will definitely miss the upcoming match, and the appearance of Ken Booker and Brian Coughlin on the field is questionable.
Interesting trends for betting
- Roda have kept a clean sheet in four of their last five matches
- The team has won only one of its last six away games.
Estimated line-up : Treichel - Kruyver, Reeseler, Ude Kotte, Müller - Berten, Jepar - Sejdiu, Baten, Schwirten - Cukur

1.67Tip and bets
The hosts are having an impressive season and could well fight for the top spots. The visitors have also been quite successful lately, but have not been able to do much away from home. The disappointing defeat at the end of September did not affect Helmond Sport form in any way, the team continues to win. We believe that this match will also be won by the "red-blacks", we suggest betting on their success.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (0) on Helmond Sport for 1.60
Bet on total
The opponents often put on a real show with goals for every taste in their face-to-face encounters, but this time we do not believe in a productive match. The visitors have finished most of their last matches with zero goals conceded, which means they have finally learned to play defensively. The hosts are fighting for the championship lead and will probably take this game seriously. Most likely, the team will not make many mistakes in defense.
Forecast - total under 2.5 goals with odds of 2.15
Bet on corners
We believe that the hosts will have the initiative on the field. This should help them beat their opponents in corners.
Prediction - Helmond Sport will take more corners for 1.65
