Helmond have been inconsistent at the start of the season, sitting bottom of the table in 16th place. The team has problems in defense, having conceded 8 goals in 5 games, but has shown the ability to score - 5 goals. At home, they look more confident, as evidenced by the recent victory over Emmen.
Jong Utrecht have also shown mixed results, but have a more productive attack - 9 goals scored. However, their defense leaves much to be desired (8 goals conceded), especially in away games (2 defeats in two away games). The youth team often plays openly, which leads to mutual scoring chances.
