What Emmen’s first halves look like
Emmen are close to two different sides either side of the coach door: a first-half goal of their own in 60.2% of home matches, 44.3% of away ones, 15.9pp between them. The record here is thinner than most of the division's: 195 matches against a typical 295.
Emmen attack the first half better than they guard it: 12th of 26 in the division for scoring before halftime, 16th for keeping the other side out. Emmen sit 9th of 26 published Eerste Divisie clubs for the share of their first halves that produce a goal.
A goal arrives before halftime in 77.9% of Emmen’s Eerste Divisie matches. That edges the Eerste Divisie figure of 75.7%, without much in it. The other 22.1% end level and goalless. Neither end of the pitch is much busier than the other early on in Emmen’s matches: they find the net before the break in 52.3% of matches and let one in during 50.3%.
Every figure on this page rests on 195 completed Emmen matches over 6 seasons (2017 to 2026). That is enough to separate a clear tendency from noise, and not enough to split it much further by venue or opponent.

How to read these numbers
- These are historical rates over pooled seasons, not a forecast. A club that has changed manager, division or squad reads as the average of every version of itself on record.
- The opponent matters as much as the club. A high-scoring side against a defense that rarely concedes early is a different fixture from the same side against one that does.
