- 10' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 15' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for David Goldar suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

- 44' Joao Correia needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 11 Yellow cards this season.
- 49' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Derrick Luckassen made 464 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
