SC Telstar and ADO Den Haag Seek First Win in Early Eredivisie Clash

SC Telstar vs ADO Den Haag - 10/11/2026

09/21/2026 53

Under early autumn skies at the BUKO Stadion, SC Telstar and ADO Den Haag both aim to break their winless streaks in the Eredivisie. With each side struggling to find their way in the opening matches, this fixture could represent a crucial turning point for their season ambitions.

Recent History

In their last six meetings with ADO Den Haag at the BUKO Stadion, SC Telstar have managed two wins, three draws, and just one defeat. This even record suggests that the matchup has often been tight, with neither side dominating in recent home fixtures. Notably, three of the past six encounters here ended in stalemates, echoing the prediction for this contest.

Recent Form

SC Telstar's recent run has been far from convincing. They have failed to win in their last six matches in all competitions, drawing twice and losing four times. Their offensive struggles are highlighted by a low average of only 0.5 goals scored per match and 1.83 conceded. The home record isn't much brighter with one draw and two losses in the last three outings at BUKO Stadion.

ADO Den Haag find themselves in similar waters. They also have not won in their last seven outings, splitting those results with two draws and four defeats, averaging 1.17 goals scored and 2.5 conceded over the same period. While their shot count and possession numbers have been slightly better than Telstar's, they have converted few of these advantages into points.

Main Trends

SC Telstar have been winless in 100% of their last six matches and have not secured maximum points in 86% of their last seven games, indicating prolonged difficulty in the Eredivisie. At home, though, they have performed somewhat better over a longer span, winning 50% of their last ten matches and scoring an average of 1.9 goals per game in that run. For encounters against ADO Den Haag at home, Telstar have drawn three of the last six, underlining their tendency to share the points in this fixture.

ADO Den Haag's broader record shows that they have won 11 of their last 20 matches in all competitions, but momentum has slipped: they've gone winless in eight of their last ten matches and five of their last six away from home. Still, their offensive output in the Eredivisie is generally stronger, with 2.1 goals per game over their last 40 league fixtures.

Overall Performance

SC Telstar’s early season performances point to defensive vulnerabilities. In defeats to AZ Alkmaar, Twente, and Ajax, they conceded a combined six goals and registered only one themselves. Their only bright spot was a 2-2 home draw with Cambuur, highlighting some ability to recover in adversity.

ADO Den Haag have suffered from inconsistency at both ends. Results include a 4-1 home defeat to Groningen and a 3-1 loss away to Go Ahead Eagles, offset by a pair of energetic 2-2 draws, notably at Feyenoord. Their ability to score in tough venues hints at attacking promise, but defensive frailty has undercut their efforts.

Prediction

Statistical models show a strong likelihood of a draw, with a 41% probability and a predicted score of 1-1. Both sides have defensive issues and have rarely found attacking momentum in recent fixtures. Given the history of tightly contested matches between these teams, combined with their current form and struggles in front of goal, a low-scoring stalemate appears to be the most probable outcome.

Final Thoughts

With both SC Telstar and ADO Den Haag keen to break free from their winless stretches, the match looks primed for a hard-fought tactical battle rather than a goal fest. Given the recent histories, trends, and ineffective finishing from both sides, a draw with under 2.5 goals seems the most logical outcome.
