Head-to-head statistics Koninklijke - Go Ahead

Koninklijke: poor form
In their most recent Tweede Divisie match on 24 October 2026, Koninklijke lost away to GVVV 0-2. Despite that, they had more shots (9-8) and launched more dangerous attacks (48-37).
Koninklijke are having a difficult time in the third tier of Dutch football, sitting 16th in the table. Over their last ten matches, they have won three, drawn three and lost four. At home, though, they show a reasonable level of attacking output, averaging 1.6 goals per game. More notably, they have scored in 14 of their last 15 home matches, which points to a consistent ability to create chances. Their defence, however, has not always held firm: seven of their last home matches have ended with both teams scoring.

Go Ahead Eagles: five draws in their last ten matches
Go Ahead Eagles' 3-2 home win over Telstar 23 October 2026 was the team's last match in the Eredivisie. Telstar had more of the ball (55% to 45%) and created more attacks, but Go Ahead Eagles were considerably more accurate, leading 7-3 in shots on target.
Go Ahead Eagles sit ninth in the Dutch top flight, though their recent results have been far from convincing. In their last five matches, they have won once, drawn three times and lost once. Over a longer run of ten matches, the picture looks similar - three wins, five draws and two defeats. Go Ahead Eagles do score freely, averaging 2.3 goals per game, but they concede at exactly the same rate, which means their attacking output does not always translate into victories.

⭐ Editor's Prediction
Go Ahead Eagles are clear favourites for this match, and it is hard to argue with that assessment. The gap in quality between the two sides is too large to seriously expect an upset. Despite Koninklijke's decent scoring record at home and certain defensive issues for the visitors, the hosts will find it extremely difficult to compete against a top-flight side. The previous head-to-head meeting also showed just how convincingly Go Ahead Eagles can perform against this opponent. The editor's main prediction is Go Ahead Eagles - Handicap -1.5.
