✍️ Match Preview
Match Analysis
Roda host NAC Breda at Parkstad Limburg Stadion in Eerste Divisie (matchday 31). Kick-off is Saturday 23 March 2024 at 19:00 UK time.
Recent Form
Across their last 10 games, Roda have gone 5W 4D 1L — a 1.90 PPG return. Last five: W W D D W. Offensively they are averaging 1.90 goals per game, with 0.90 conceded. 4 clean sheets in 10 games (40%) reflects a solid defensive base.
Roda at home: 6W 3D 1L from their last 10 home games — 2.10 PPG on home soil. At home they are averaging 1.70 goals scored and 0.80 conceded per game. 4 home clean sheets from their last 10 home games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground.
Looking at their last 10 matches, NAC Breda stand at 5W 3D 2L — 1.80 PPG. Last five: L W W W W. They are scoring at 1.50 per game and conceding 1.10. 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, NAC Breda have gone 6W 1D 3L in their last 10 away fixtures (1.90 PPG). They are averaging 2.10 goals per away game — strong road scoring that makes them a threat even without home support. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.
The form comparison is too close to call — 1.90 PPG (Roda) versus 1.80 (NAC Breda). When the figures are this level, no pick can be reliably derived from recent results alone.
Head to Head
The H2H picture is flat: the 5 H2H matches we hold have produced 1 wins for Roda, 2 for NAC Breda and 2 draws. Form and model data should carry more weight here.
The 5 H2H matches in our data have been high-scoring — 3.6 goals per game on average — which backs the Over 2.5 market from the head-to-head side. The most recent of those, on 9 Sep 2023, ended Roda 3–1 NAC Breda — a Roda win.
With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H signal is in the goals market — at 3.6 goals per game, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle from the head-to-head data.
Trading Patterns
Roda in-play and half-time data (last 68 games, 34 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 74% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 76% of the time; of the 25 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 36%; BTTS occurs in 62% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 59% of games (home games).
NAC Breda in-play and half-time data (last 68 games, 34 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 85% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 93% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 57% of those occasions; of the 23 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 30%; BTTS occurs in 71% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 71% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 43%.
From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Roda 56% and NAC Breda 71% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Roda 52% | NAC Breda 65%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Roda 1.58 xG and NAC Breda 1.37 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: Roda attack 1.140 / defence 0.825 | NAC Breda attack 1.240 / defence 0.853. League average goals — home 1.626 / away 1.337. NAC Breda have an above-average attack rating of 1.240, which lifts their away xG to 1.37. Data: built from Roda's last 68 games and NAC Breda's last 68.
Result probabilities: Roda 42% | Draw 26% | NAC Breda 32%. Fair-value odds: Roda 2.41 | Draw 3.78 | NAC Breda 3.12. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 26% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 57% | BTTS Yes probability 60% | Total xG 2.95. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 57% — the 2.95 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 60% — both xG figures (1.58 / 1.37) are high enough that each side is projected to find the net.
Analysis Verdict
On the Poisson output, Roda are the pick at 42% — marginal model lean. With a 26% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Roda offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 32% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.
Poisson projects 2.95 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 57% probability — strong conviction, supported by recent form (Roda's last 10 home games and NAC Breda's last 10 away games) averaging 3.0 goals per game and the H2H data averaging 3.6 goals per game across 5 H2H matches.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 60%. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Roda 50% (last 10 home games) | NAC Breda 60% (last 10 away games).

Roda beat their projection by 1.4 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in.
