NAC Breda's form has been more up and down all season. They've mixed wins over Jong Ajax and FC OSS with defeats to VVV Venlo and Waalwijk, but they head into this one on the back of a 2-1 win away at De Graafschap.

MVV's early advantage has narrowed after two poor results, while NAC Breda arrive with a bit of momentum from their last outing.

Comparative Team Statistics: NAC Breda vs MVV

Head-to-head record

This fixture has a long history stretching back to 2016, and NAC Breda have generally had the upper hand, winning eight of the thirteen recorded meetings. Several of those games were played in different divisions and different eras of both clubs.

The most recent meeting, back in March 2024, went MVV's way, a 2-1 win at NAC Breda.

The historical record favours NAC Breda, but it's old enough that it says little about either team's current shape.

League standings

MVV currently sit sixth with 13 points from seven games, having won four, drawn one and lost two. NAC Breda are down in 11th on 10 points from the same number of matches, with three wins, one draw and three losses.

The gap is three points and five places, though both sides have played an identical number of fixtures so far.

MVV's league position reflects a stronger overall campaign, even accounting for their recent dip.

Players to watch

O. Dumont has been MVV's most productive forward this season with four goals in seven appearances, matched almost exactly by NAC Breda's P. Gladon, who also has four goals but from six games.

NAC Breda's J. Van den Bergh, M. Nassoh and L. Greiml have all picked up multiple yellow cards already, which is worth keeping an eye on given how quickly bookings can add up.

What to expect

Both defences have conceded 15 goals in seven league games, so neither side has been especially tight at the back. MVV have scored 10, NAC Breda 13, which points to a game where chances at both ends are plausible.

Given the inconsistency in recent form for both clubs, a cagey, error-prone contest wouldn't be a surprise either.
