The Eerste Divisie gets underway this weekend as Helmond Sport locks horns with Telstar at the Stadion De Braak.

The home side will come into this game following an inconsistent run of performances which has seen them drop to 15th position with just 32 points to show for their efforts. On the attack, they have struggled for form and have only scored 26 goals, while at the back, they have been very frail, having conceded 43 goals this season.

Telstar on the other hand will head into this game in a very strong position as they sit in 11th position. They cruised to a 2-1 victory in their last game against Roda and they will be hoping for a repeat of that result. In both attack and defense, Telstar have been fairly decent.

Looking at the records have shown that Telstar have the clear advantage going into this game. In the last 5 meetings between these two sides, Telstar have come out completely unbeaten with 2 victories and 3 draws. They scored 9 goals in that time period, showcasing their dominance and they will want to replicate those performances. In their last game together, Telstar was also victorious and they will take confidence in that. We are backing the visitors here as we expect them to do enough to avoid a defeat by either securing a victory or by earning a draw.
