Graafschap vs Maastricht Match Preview

Graafschap is ranked at 9th place with 47 points and comes not in their best shape as they are winless over the last five matches collecting three draws and two losses. This poor run caused them to drop out of the top eight which is the play-off zone but still considering that Jong Ajax is in the play-off zone means that they can participate.

With 40 goals they have shown a good offensive side despite the fact that in the last five matches they have scored a total of only two goals as they failed to score in the last four in a row. Having to face the second-worst defense in the league could be a chance for them to bounce back on winning ways while also scoring a couple of goals in order to improve their goal difference.

Konings with 6 goals - 3 assists and Korte 5 goals - 1 assist are leading Graafschap's offensive side.

Maastricht, on the other hand, is ranked at the bottom of the table at 19th place with 26 points and comes after a single win and four losses over the last five matches. It has been quite a disappointing season for them as only Helmond has done worse than them so far.

With 31 goals scored so far and an impressive tally of eight goals in the last five matches, they have proved to play an open game. I guess that should be the case once more now. On the road, they scored at least a goal in four of the last five matches.

For Maastricht it has been Ntelo 7 goals - 3 assists and Blummel 7 goals - 2 assists the ones who are leading their offensive side and I fancy one of them to be on the score sheet here.

In conclusion, I think this match can have over 2.5 goals. Graafschap is in need of points and I guess they will try to attack from the start here. Being at home in front of their fans I expect at least two goals by them as their rivals conceded 13 goals over the last five matches. Maastricht could contribute with a goal too as they have nothing to lose and play an attacking football recently.
