Go Ahead Eagles can exploit Den Haag’s defensive issues
Standings and context
Go Ahead Eagles are flying high in 5th place in the Eredivisie 2026/2027 with 3 points from 1 match, whereas ADO Den Haag are 16th with 0 points from 2. The visitors will be looking to change their fortunes when they visit De Adelaarshorst, Netherlands on Sunday, but the hosts will be tough to beat.
Tactics and form
Joseph Oosting's system has brought flexibility and a plan to Go Ahead Eagles' play, where they can build from the back and press with numbers or sit back and counter in equal measure. They are scoring 4.00 goals per game in their one Eredivisie 2026/2027 home game so far, conceding just 1.00 goal on average.
The hosts are the 1.58 favorites for this game, with ADO Den Haag a long shot at 5.0 and the draw at 4.2. Go Ahead Eagles are the clear selection for this clash, but we think that the visitors will have enough about them to keep it competitive.

Den Haag struggles
Robin Peter's ADO Den Haag are looking to end a two-game losing skid with the trip to De Adelaarshorst. They have shown they can be a force to be reckoned with when they are in the right mood, but they have failed to beat the run of play in their last two Eredivisie 2026/2027 games, a 2-0 defeat at AZ Alkmaar and a 1-4 drubbing at home to FC Groningen.
The game is on the line
ADO Den Haag will look to push the action into the forward third at every opportunity, press high and hunt the turnover. There will be chaos in this game and Den Haag will want it to be an up-and-down game. Go Ahead Eagles will try to keep the pace in their control and will be able to pick Den Haag off if they press too high.
Over 2.5 goals at 1.48 looks very reasonable given the styles of these two teams, whilst both teams to score at 1.5 looks like it has a live chance too.
