Jong PSV vs Excelsior Match Preview

Jong PSV is ranked at 10th place with 29 points and comes after two wins a draw and two losses over the last five matches. It seems they have bounced back after a negative run as they are unbeaten in the last three duels but a tough challenge expects them.

While it is true that they are not eligible to get promoted they still play very offensive football having scored 38 goals so far, while in the last five matches they have scored a total of 13 goals, averaging more than two goals per game while managing to find the back of the net at least once in four occasions. At home, they did even better, scoring 21 goals in 11 matches and having scored at least once in eight of these duels.

The talented youngster Bakayoko has netted 11 goals and 6 assists so far followed by Sealy with 5 goals.

Excelsior, on the other side, is ranked at 2nd place with 43 points and comes in very good form as they are unbeaten in the last five matches collecting three wins and two draws. This performance allowed them to climb in ranks and now sit into the direct promotion zone as they are trying to avoid the playoffs. Considering they are one game short a win here would consolidate their position.

With 48 goals scored so far, they have one of the best offensive sides in the league averaging more than two goals per game. In the last five matches, they have scored a total of seven goals while managing to find the back of the net in four duels.

For them, the new signing Dallinga has been on fire with 25 goals and 3 assists alongside Niemeijer with 7 goals and 6 assists.

In conclusion, I think this match can have over 2.5 goals. Both teams fancy an attacking approach and their previous performances are a good indicator. In the previous h2h game earlier this season, we saw Excelsior winning 3-0. Now that Jong PSV plays at home, I expect at least a goal by them.
