Match of the Day: Dutch Eredivisie: RKC Waalwijk – N.E.C. Nijmegen

Your Web 3 Guru and Moonbet presenting todays match: RKC Waalwijk – N.E.C. Nijmegen.

RKC Waalwijk is often praised for their playing style on the field, but unfortunately, they haven’t been able to convert it into points. Despite their efforts to secure a spot in the top half of the standings last season, RKC has now gone eight games without a win (3 draws, 5 losses) and finds themselves four points away from safety as they prepare for a Friday night showdown with NEC Nijmegen. Adding to their challenges, RKC, along with FC Utrecht, holds the unwanted distinction of having conceded six penalties already.

Struggling to find the back of the net, RKC has only scored a single goal in their last six matches, joining Vitesse Arnhem as the only two teams in the Eredivisie with fewer than 20 goals (18). Their recent track record against NEC is not encouraging either, having conceded 12 goals in their last three meetings while managing to score only twice.

Meanwhile, NEC supporters are experiencing an exciting period after years of being in the Dutch second tier and mid-table mediocrity in the Eredivisie. Sitting in sixth place, NEC has been impressive, scoring as many goals as FC Twente and conceding fewer goals than top clubs like Ajax. They’ve also advanced to the semi-finals of the KNVB Cup, defeating ADO Den Haag 3-0.

Despite losing key players like Bas Dost due to health issues and Magnus Mattsson through a record transfer, NEC has seen strong performances from their replacements. For instance, Koki Ogawa has scored three goals in his last two matches alone. With an unbeaten streak of ten games (8 wins, 2 draws) and a favorable history against RKC, NEC heads to Waalwijk with confidence.

Key players to watch include RKC’s captain @mkramer1988, returning from suspension after scoring in three of his last four appearances, and NEC’s @tjaronnchery10, who found the net in each of his first three outings for the club.

In an impressive feat, NEC could equal a club record if they manage to score in their 16th consecutive Eredivisie match.
