Excelsior Maassluis vs Katwijk tips and predictions

Salvage mission for Excelsior Maassluis

Reading elsewhere there have been previews by analysts embellishing the visitors but that short price is poor value.

Excelsior Maassluis supporters will look at Katwijk's recent results for evidence that they are there for the taking. Defeats have slowly been stacking up for this away squad over their last 10 fixtures. They've lost 5 of them. For such a short priced team you might have wanted a better return than this.

It won't surprise anyone to see them dismiss the challenge of Excelsior Maassluis but it's not a foregone conclusion and a home win seems a reasonable suggestion.

Excelsior Maassluis need to find their top form. This home team is in a bit of a run of form at their own ground. They scored three or more goals in 5 of their recent 13 home matches and they've kept a clean sheet in 2 of their last 5 home games.

The visitors have lacked potency in front of goal recently. They've been goalless in 3 of their last 9 matches. Football matches are not won on paper though so be cautious when analysing these sides. If they have had time to make changes in front of goal we could see them find some form. After all, they are the favourites for a reason.

Excelsior Maassluis have won 7 of the last 12 fixtures between these sides.

To be fair, it might be surprise enough to see the sides finish with the stalemate. Most previews are saying that neither side will keep a clean sheet during this match despite the favouritism for Katwijk. Nevertheless the odds-against for the No BTTS is actually the best bet from that market. And in the goal line it's Under 1.5 that stands out here considering the price that's available there.
