The final day of play in the Eredivisie. Twente, one point ahead of Ajax, needs to win at NAC Breda. Twente has a strong 10-4-2 road record, but it is misleading. Here's why...
Twente on the road in 2010 is only 3-3-2. They have only won three of eight road games (after going 7-1-0 in the 2009 part of the present season). Most recent first:
0-1 loss at AZ
2-0 win at VVV
1-1 draw at PSV
1-0 win at RKC
2-1 win at Vitesse
0-3 loss at AJAX
0-0 draw at Utrecht
0-0 draw at Groningen
The 3 wins came against teams below .500; VVV, RKC, and Vitesse, all in the bottom half of the table. NAC is not one of those teams. In fact, NAC has everything to play for this Sunday. They can still qualify for European football next season. It doesn't hurt that their home record shows only three losses for the season. NAC at home: 8-5-3.
NAC +1 and +1.5 -141
