Full Analysis
Rat Verlegh Stadion plays host to NAC Breda versus Jong Ajax in Eerste Divisie (matchday 14). Kick-off: Friday 10 November 2023 at 19:00 UK time.
Current Form
NAC Breda's record over their last 10 games: 4W 2D 4L (1.40 PPG). Last five: W W W D L. Offensively they are averaging 1.80 goals per game, with 1.80 conceded. Both teams have scored in 90% of their matches — an extremely high rate that makes BTTS Yes a well-supported standalone angle from their form alone.
NAC Breda's home record over their last 10 home games: 5W 1D 4L (1.60 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.70 goals scored and 1.80 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 80% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.
Jong Ajax have collected 0.90 PPG across their last 10 games: 2W 3D 5L. Last five: W L D L W. Their scoring rate of 1.40 per game is modest, conceding 2.00 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Conceding 2.00 per game is a high rate — their defence has been exposed regularly. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%). Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
On the road, Jong Ajax have gone 1W 0D 9L in their last 10 away fixtures (0.30 PPG). Away from home they average 1.00 goals scored and 2.70 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context. Their away PPG of 0.30 is notably below their overall 0.90 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.
A near-identical PPG reading — 1.40 for NAC Breda, 0.90 for Jong Ajax — means the form record is uninstructive on result selection. The goals and market sections will carry greater evidential weight.
In terms of goals, both squads have been finding the net consistently (from NAC Breda's last 10 home games and Jong Ajax's last 10 away games) — NAC Breda have seen both teams score in 80% of their games, Jong Ajax in 60%. That combined rate is a strong statistical case for BTTS Yes as a standalone play.
Head-to-Head
The head-to-head sample leans to Jong Ajax, who have 3 wins from 4 H2H matches compared to 0 for the hosts, with 1 draw.
The 4 H2H matches in our data have been high-scoring — 5.2 goals per game on average — which backs the Over 2.5 market from the head-to-head side. The most recent of those, on 13 Mar 2023, ended NAC Breda 2–6 Jong Ajax — a Jong Ajax win.
The H2H data backs the away side. Jong Ajax have won 3 of 4 H2H matches, and at 5.2 goals per game the goals market also points upward — the away win and Over 2.5 combination has a head-to-head case.
Trading Data
NAC Breda goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (last 51 games, 25 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 80% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 88% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 76% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 64% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 43%.
Jong Ajax goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (last 51 games, 25 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 84% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 78% of the time; of the 19 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 42%; BTTS occurs in 76% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 72% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 45%.
From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — NAC Breda 74% and Jong Ajax 72% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. Over 2.5 goals is well-supported by both sides' in-play profiles (NAC Breda 69% | Jong Ajax 67%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects NAC Breda 2.80 xG and Jong Ajax 1.61 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: NAC Breda attack 1.107 / defence 1.239 | Jong Ajax attack 0.974 / defence 1.515. League average goals — home 1.671 / away 1.338. Jong Ajax's defence rating of 1.515 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing NAC Breda's projected output up. NAC Breda's defence rating of 1.239 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing Jong Ajax's projected output up. Data: built from NAC Breda's last 51 games and Jong Ajax's last 51.
Result probabilities: NAC Breda 62% | Draw 18% | Jong Ajax 20%. Fair-value odds: NAC Breda 1.62 | Draw 5.43 | Jong Ajax 5.05. The model has a clear lean to NAC Breda (62%) — a 42pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 82% | BTTS Yes probability 76% | Total xG 4.42. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 82% — a total xG of 4.42 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS Yes at 76% — both xG figures (2.80 / 1.61) are high enough that each side is projected to find the net.
Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is NAC Breda at 62% — clear model lean. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 18% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
The Poisson model projects 4.42 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 82% — strong conviction, supported by recent form (NAC Breda's last 10 home games and Jong Ajax's last 10 away games) averaging 3.6 goals per game and the H2H data averaging 5.2 goals per game across 4 H2H matches.
Poisson assigns a 76% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: NAC Breda 80% (last 10 home games) | Jong Ajax 60% (last 10 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
The points were shared at Rat Verlegh Stadion, Regular Season - 14, as NAC Breda and Jong Ajax drew 1-1 in the Eerste Divisie. That is the final score; the rest of this report grades it against what the data forecast beforehand.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting NAC Breda 2.80 xG and Jong Ajax 1.61 xG, a combined 4.42. The scoreboard read 1-1 for 2 actual goals. NAC Breda fell 1.8 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of NAC Breda attack 1.11 / defence 1.24 against Jong Ajax attack 0.97 / defence 1.51, drawn from 51/51 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it NAC Breda 62% | Draw 18% | Jong Ajax 20%, with NAC Breda to win its most likely call at 62%. Instead the game produced a draw, an outcome the model had rated at just 18% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 82%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — a miss for the goals model. Over 1.5 had been 94% and landed. Over 3.5 was 64% and did not. On both teams to score, the model sat at 76% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 68% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (NAC Breda 69%, Jong Ajax 67%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 74%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
NAC Breda's trading profile (51 games, 25 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 74% of their matches — today it did.
Jong Ajax's trading profile (51 games, 25 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 72% of their matches — today it did.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — NAC Breda 1.45 PPG, Jong Ajax 1.08 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the draw fit that even billing. NAC Breda (home/away splits) managed 1 against a 1.80 scoring average — below par going forward. Jong Ajax (home/away splits) conceded 1 against a 2.56 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (hit). A poor return for the projections: the match defied the majority of what the numbers expected.
