Key Points

• MVV and Emmen, surprised everyone in the Keuken Kampioen Divisie.
• MVV Maastricht and FC Emmen both have 9 points from the first three matches of the Keuken Kampioen Divisie, with relegated Heracles Almelo also off to a perfect start.
• MVV en Emmen verrassen vriend en vigend.

MVV Maastricht and FC Emmen had an unusual start to the new edition of the Keuken Kampioen Divisie: both teams took home 9 points from the first three matches and left big questions for the other teams in the league. The perfect start also includes Heracles Almelo, the team that just returned to the division after being relegated last season. The good start of the two teams was a surprise, including the coaches Andries Jonker (Emmen) and Menno van Dam (MVV). In a reported statement, Jonker said, "Since our presentation on May 1, we have worked hard," as part of his explanation for the team's rapid growth. Van Dam was a little more calm: "We have quality, but we also have shortcomings," he said, reflecting a realistic view of MVV's newfound success. The statistics behind MVV's sudden rise shed light on their new face this season. For the first three matchdays, MVV achieved its first three league wins for the first time in almost fifty years — the last time this happened was in 1977/78. In terms of defensive metrics, only Roda JC (2.3) and Jong PSV (2.4) received less Expected Goals (xG) compared to MVV with 3.2 xG against the first three matches.

The change in their style of play is also clear: last season, MVV was one of the teams with the lowest ball possession (44%), almost the same as TOP Oss (43%). But after three matches today, MVV's average possession has climbed to 53 percent — an indication that they have had a more aggressive and controlled attack. Last campaign, MVV recorded the lowest number of shots, lowest contact in the opposing penalty area, and lowest goals in the league; the new data shows a clear improvement in that aspect. On the schedule, MVV have their next challenge: they visit Jong AZ this coming Friday night, while Emmen take on VVV on Sunday afternoon. These matches are important not only to maintain a perfect record but to build momentum and check whether the first results are just the beginning of a real lift or a short-term miracle. All in all, MVV and Emmen's start is one of the first stories of the season to keep an eye on — not just as a surprise on the record but as a possible indication that there are changing dynamics in the Keuken Kampioen Divisie. As the season progresses, it will be seen if both teams can maintain their routine and if others will keep up with the competition's climb.

What's next

In the next matches, MVV is scheduled to meet Jong AZ, while FC Emmen will play against VVV. These matches will be important to maintain the momentum and continue their good run in the league. Coaches Andries Jonker and Menno van Dam will certainly be looking for ways to keep their teams at the top of the Keuken Kampioen Divisie standings.
