Den Haag vs FC Emmen Prediction & Betting tips
The opening match of Saturday football in the Eredivisie is between ADO Den Haag and FC Emmen. A six-point match, because it is becoming increasingly difficult for the loser of this game to climb out of the relegation zone.
ADO:
Last Tuesday, ADO had the opportunity to wash away the unpleasant aftertaste of the 2-1 league defeat against AZ in the TOTO KNVB Cup. However, when visiting Vitesse, the residents of The Hague had little to crumble in the milk. Via Loïs Openda, the Arnhem team took the lead after half an hour of play, after which Matus Bero doubled the margin in the second half. Amar Catic did bring the tension back in the game fifteen minutes before the end, but in the end it remained with a connection goal: 2-1. Coach Ruud Brood did send a refined B-team into the field, because the focus is entirely on a good result against Emmen this weekend.
After Daryl Janmaat, Juan Familia-Castillo and Marko Vejinovic, ADO has brought in a new reinforcement with Tomislav Gomelt. The club also caused some surprise via the twitter account, as the arrival of a third goalkeeper was announced: Martin Fraisl. According to Martin Jol, it is a logical choice to rent the SV Sandhausen closing post until the end of the season, because with only Robert Zwinkels and Luuk Koopmans the flush could become thin in the decisive phase of the season.
FC Emmen:
Just like the opponent on Saturday evening, a midweek cup match was also scheduled for the Drenthe team, of which the outcome was the same: 1-2. In De Oude Meerdijk, Sergio Peña put his team ahead of sc Heerenveen before half time, but in the second company the Frisians managed to turn the game around. Where Emmen failed to shoot in the 2-0, the visitors were efficient and, after Benjamin Nygren’s equalizer, they managed to avert an extension by using a penalty in the final minutes of regular time. Ricardo van Rhijn was the bitten dog, who caused the penalty kick with a stupid handball.
In the league, Dick Lukkien’s team is not doing much better, because this season, which is now seventeen rounds old, the Emmen people were not able to book a single victory. Moreover, the first victory seems to be getting further and further out of sight, as the team received no fewer than fifteen goals against in the last four league games. Partly with the recruitment of Didier La Torre, an eighteen-year-old attacking midfielder from Peru who came over as the fifth winter acquisition, Emmen hopes to avert relegation.
