Helmond Sport desperately need points today at 8:00 PM in the Eerste Divisie. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Helmond Sport come into this fixture out of form (0W 2L recently). VVV-Venlo, meanwhile, arrive in good form (3W 0D 1L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Helmond Sport head into this on the back of a defeat, while VVV-Venlo arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

Verdict: VVV-Venlo's quality should tell even on the road. Helmond Sport will push, but the visitors have too much class. VVV-Venlo to win.
