Maastricht vs Helmond Prediction & Betting tips
Friday night MVV and Helmond Sport meet each other in the Geusselt, two teams longing for the winter break. Which team can say goodbye to 2019 with a positive feeling?
MVV:
For MVV, the year 2019 has definitely not become what the club management and supporters expected. Last season the play-offs went wrong and this year the Star Carriers are bivouacing in the basement of professional football, with only sixteen points from the first nineteen league games. Only four victories were celebrated in the first half of the season and the distance to a play-off spot is huge. The fans are completely done with the trainer and the technical staff and are coming to the Geusselt in ever smaller numbers. Something really has to change in Maastricht.
Last week, too, there was no chance of losing, this time visiting FC Volendam. On the Dijk, it became a whopping 4-1 for the home team. In the last 3.5 months, coach Fuat Usta’s team managed to win only twice, the worst series in the entire competition. It is clear that the scarce capital has been invested in the wrong players. Acquisitions such as Urho Nissilä, Facundo Bonifazi and Serhat Kot mainly keep the bank warm.
To mention a positive statistic: MVV did not lose the last five home games and with Helmond Sport meets a team that managed to win only one away game.
Helmond Sport:
Helmond Sport is also doing well this season. The people from Brabant have two points less than MVV and are in penultimate place, with only three points more than FC Dordrecht. It has also been eight matches since the Cat Swatters were able to celebrate a victory, this was also against FC Dordrecht. Since then, Willie Boessen’s team has taken only two meager points.
Helmond Sport can safely be called the worst team in recent years. The team managed to win only three away games throughout 2018 and 2019 (!), The first two of which took place in January and March 2018. Between March 2018 and October 2019, the team remained over 1.5 devoid of a victory on foreign soil. This bad series was partly to blame for last place in the ranking last season.
In the last competition match of 2019, Boessen cannot rely on Bodi Brusselers, Stefan Tielemans, Bram Zwanen and Diego Snepvangers. The foursome has been out of the running for some time and hopes to reconnect after the winter break.
