REF’s picks

Both teams to score is a strong angle here given the defensive frailties on both sides and their recent high-scoring encounters. Helmond Sport have been leaking goals freely, conceding heavily against Jong AZ and Willem II, yet they continue to find the net at home.

1. 1Both defenses have shown notable vulnerability in recent weeks, leading to frequent goal-laden matches.
2. 2Helmond Sport's matches tend to feature plenty of goals at both ends, making an open game likely.
3. 3An early defensive deadlock or a cagey start could occasionally stifle chances before the game truly opens up.
