Maastricht vs Waalwijk Prediction & Betting tips
Both MVV and RKC Waalwijk have to win on Friday with a view to the play-offs. RKC must ensure safe placement, while MVV can still hope for a direct placement in RKC profit. The home team has more quality, but is already seven games seamlessly. Can the Maastricht players go through to the second round of play-offs?
Maastricht :
MVV was still outstanding at the end of February, but in two months Ron Elsen’s team completely lost that good starting position. If MVV does not immediately announce the match competition, it may be a disappointment, despite the fact that the team based on quality may be in the place where they belong. MVV would undoubtedly have hit the trainers at FC Volendam, because the home team played much stronger last week than in the weeks before. Patrick N’Koyi was given the opportunity to make the 1-2 from the penalty spot after fifteen minutes, but the rush failed. MVV also left after the first half to get ahead, after which Volendam finished the chances in the second half: 3-1 loss.
MVV rests on Friday but one assignment: win. Given that competitors Almere City (one point more) and NAC Breda (three points more) meet, the Maastricht players can almost certainly make a direct placement on profit. In that case, goal goal can only be wrong if Almere City and MVV win both with a small margin. Elsen can have Kelechi Nwakali on Friday again. Arsenal’s hireling suffered from his groin last week and was tired. “It’s the first time he’s leading a whole season. Do not forget he’s only eighteen years old, “Elsen said. It is not yet certain whether he starts in the base. Only Florian Loshaj misses RKC home with certainty.
Probable setup MVV Maastricht
Geens; Ciranni, Pereira, Kuipers, Labylle; Nys, Nwakali, Ippel; Pedro, N’Koyi, Schroijen
Waalwijk :
RKC Waalwijk took a big step last week towards the qualifying competition. The Waalwijkers won their own party and saw competitors FC Eindhoven and De Graafschap lose points. However, RKC is not yet available. On the one hand, MVV-out is just a very difficult game, on the other hand, it seems that FC Eindhoven and otherwise De Graafschap will not waste any points. RKC won last week with 3-0 from Fortuna Sittard. In the first half, the Waalwijkers did not know how to finish their chances, but at rest it succeeded. In less than ten minutes Johan Voskamp with his fifteenth season hit and Pieter Langedijk with his seventeenth made a comfortable 2-0 lead. A quarter to time, Fred Benson decided the match: 3-0.
Where MVV has to win from RKC on Friday, that does not matter to the visitors. In view of De Graafschap a draw is enough, but FC Eindhoven has only one point lag. The Eindhoveners have a much less goal balance, but if RKC wants to keep it alone, they really have to win themselves. The signs are less good, even when it was more sporty in Waalwijk, RKC hardly managed to win at MVV. RKC won only once in The Geusselt in this century. Furthermore, in 1986 and 1991, RKC was only successful with the Maastricht teachers. Trainer Peter van den Berg will probably write the same names, although it is unclear how injuries of Ingo van Weert and Serginho Greene are.
Probable setup RKC Waalwijk
Williams; Mezghrani, Wormgoor, Nieuwendaal, G. Ndefe; Rienstra, Van Arnhem, Van de Sande; Benson, Voskamp, Langedijk
