First win is close

Den Haag conceded two goals until the 7' of the game and they were finally defeated 4-2 in Heracles home. That was their second defeat in an equal number of games, since they were also defeated 2-1 from Emmen, in their openning game in front of their fans. They didn't make any important changes in their squad and A.Groenendijk is still on their bench, however they do not remind at all the team they used to be last year, when they participated at play offs for a european spot. It worths to be mentioned that the last 1,5 month, Den Haag won only once (3-1 against Panathinaikos) in 7 games (both friendly and official). At the rest of the games they were defeated with two or more goals. They have problems in attack since Zhang Yuning (on loan from West Bromwich) has obligations with the National team of China and the midfielder D.Bakker won't play due to injury.

Great performance from Fortuna Sittard against Champions Eindhoven. They were just unlucky to lose the point, when they conceded a goal in injury time (1-2). They had a good performance as well in their first game at Eredivisie, they actually deserved to win in Excelsior's home, but they eventually drew (1-1). R.Eijer hasn't any absences in his team, except from qualitative attacker D.Dianessy who is absent for more than 5 months. Newcomer A. Novakovich (photo) is great in attack, last year scored 19 goals with Telstar.

Den Haag's performance in their two first games prevent us from betting anything on them, especially with the odds to be below evens. On the contrary, it worths to bet on Fortuna Sittard, whose performance in their first two games in Eredivisie proved that their first win is coming soon. Fortuna Sittard's win is offered at 4.00+, and for such odds, I will take the risk.
