Excelsior vs GO Ahead Eagles: the head-to-head
Excelsior’s recent form has been a stark contrast to GO Ahead Eagles’ dominance, with the latter winning the last five encounters in a row. Since 2016 the two sides have played eight times, a record that shows a clear tilt in favour of the Eagles, who have claimed five victories to Excelsior’s single win and two draws. Across all meetings the teams have scored a combined 20 goals, averaging 2.5 per game, and the matches have seen 88% of games with at least two goals, 50% with three or more, and both sides scoring in half of them. GO Ahead Eagles have outscored Excelsior 15 to 5. The most recent clash ended 0-1 in favour of the Eagles on 1 March 2026, with Excelsior at home. At home Excelsior have managed one win, two draws and one loss, but have failed to win any of the four away fixtures. The next meeting is scheduled for 7 November 2026.
