Analysis & Preview
A Eerste Divisie encounter, Regular Season - 13 sees Den Bosch travel to De Oude Meerdijk to take on Emmen. The game is scheduled for Sunday 1 November 2026, 13:30 UTC.
Recent Form
Across all Eerste Divisie games this season, Emmen have gone 6W 1D 3L from 10 outings — a 1.90 PPG return. Last five: W D W W W. Offensively they are averaging 1.90 goals per game, with 1.50 conceded. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets. This season is still relatively young for Emmen, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Emmen at De Oude Meerdijk this season: 7W 1D 2L from 10 home games — 2.20 PPG on home soil. They are averaging 2.00 goals per home game — a prolific scoring rate in front of their own fans. Both teams have scored in 70% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.
Looking at all fixtures this season, Den Bosch stand at 4W 2D 4L from 10 Eerste Divisie matches — 1.40 PPG. Last five: L D W W D. They are scoring at 1.50 per game and conceding 1.70. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market. This season is still relatively young for Den Bosch, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Den Bosch away from home this season: 3W 0D 7L from 10 away games — 0.90 PPG on the road. Away from home they average 1.30 goals scored and 2.20 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.
Emmen carry the stronger recent momentum — 0.50 PPG ahead of their opponents on 1.90 vs 1.40. The form data is a point in their favour, and where the price allows, it is the cleaner directional bet.
The BTTS market is worth targeting here. Emmen register both teams scoring in 70% of relevant matches, Den Bosch in 60% (using home/away splits) — both sides above the 60% threshold gives BTTS Yes firm statistical grounding.
Head to Head
The historical ledger comes down firmly in favour of Emmen: 5 wins from 8 previous clashes against 2 for Den Bosch, with 1 draws across those contests.
The 8 previous meetings have averaged 2.2 goals per game — a neutral rate that provides no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent clash, on 30 Jan 2026, ended 1–1 with a draw.
The historical record gives Emmen a meaningful edge here — 5 wins from 8 meetings is the kind of ledger that should not be discounted when the form picture is inconclusive. Even away from home, the visitors have struggled to impose themselves in this fixture.
In-Play Data
Emmen trading profile (50 games, 25 at home): they score before half-time in 84% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 92% of the time; BTTS occurs in 64% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 64% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 50%.
Den Bosch trading profile (50 games, 25 at away): they score before half-time in 88% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 70% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 68% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 72% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 44%.
From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Emmen 60% and Den Bosch 76% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. Over 2.5 goals is well-supported by both sides' in-play profiles (Emmen 64% | Den Bosch 68%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Emmen 1.82 xG and Den Bosch 1.04 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: Emmen attack 1.062 / defence 0.881 | Den Bosch attack 0.765 / defence 0.925. League average goals — home 1.855 / away 1.547. Data: 50 Emmen games / 50 Den Bosch games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Emmen 56% | Draw 23% | Den Bosch 21%. Fair-value odds: Emmen 1.79 | Draw 4.35 | Den Bosch 4.76. The model has a clear lean to Emmen (56%) — a 35pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 55% | BTTS probability 54% | Total xG 2.86. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 55% — the 2.86 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS probability of 54% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Our Verdict
Poisson rates Emmen as the most likely outcome at 56% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 23% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.86 combined xG gives a 55% probability to Over 2.5 — reasonable, supported by form averaging 3.5 goals per game.
Poisson assigns a 54% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Emmen 70% | Den Bosch 60% BTTS from recent games.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Den Bosch beat Emmen 0-5 at De Oude Meerdijk, Regular Season - 13, 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 Emmen 1.82 xG and Den Bosch 1.04 xG, a combined 2.86. The scoreboard read 0-5 for 5 actual goals. Emmen fell 1.8 short of their projected output. Den Bosch outscored their 1.04 projection by 4.0. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Emmen attack 1.06 / defence 0.88 against Den Bosch attack 0.77 / defence 0.93, drawn from 50/50 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Emmen 56% | Draw 23% | Den Bosch 21%, with Emmen to win its most likely call at 56%. Instead the game produced a Den Bosch win, an outcome the model had rated at just 21% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 55%. The game delivered 5, so it went over — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 78% and landed. Over 3.5 was 32% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 54% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 66% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Emmen 64%, Den Bosch 68%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 68%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Emmen's trading profile (50 games, 25 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 60% of their matches — today it did not.
Den Bosch's trading profile (50 games, 25 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 76% of their matches — today it did not.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Emmen 1.40 PPG, Den Bosch 1.20 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Den Bosch win broke the near-deadlock. Emmen (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.96 scoring average — below par going forward and shipped 5 against a 1.48 concession average — a leakier day than usual. Den Bosch (home/away splits) scored 5 against a 1.36 average — above their attacking norm and conceded 0 against a 2.16 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 (hit), BTTS (miss). A poor return for the projections: the match defied the majority of what the numbers expected.
