Eredivisie newcomers SBV Excelsior welcome Emmen to the Van Donge & De Roo Stadion on Saturday aiming to avoid a fourth consecutive loss.
Meanwhile, the away side also head into this weekend's clash in need of a lift having suffered defeat in each of their last two matches.
We say: SBV Excelsior 0-1 Emmen
There is little to choose between the sides in this one, and Saturday's meeting could easily swing either way. That said, we are backing the visitors to just about see off the threat of their hosts and get the job done.
