Fortuna Sittard manager Danny Buijs will need to rebuild confidence in his squad after their heavy 4-0 away defeat by Sparta Rotterdam.  In that game they had 45% possession and managed 14 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Sparta Rotterdam who had 17 attempts and 9 on target.  

While they have been strong in attack with 12 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 11 at the other end which has led to points being dropped.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 1 clean sheet in those games.  

Kaj Sierhuis will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 6 goals in the last 6 league games for Fortuna Sittard.

Having taken all 3 points, with a crucial 3-1 home win over PSV in their last league game, NEC Nijmegen will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 34%, while racking up 8 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. PSV had 27 shots on goal with 6 on target.  

With 14 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, their manager Rogier Meijer will be very pleased with his team's form going forward, but he will be casting a cautious eye over his defence, who have shipped 6 goals in the same period.  They've conceded a goal in each of their last 15 away games; however, overall they've scored in 24 of their 27 games this season.  

They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.  They've had an unusually high number of draws when playing away from home this season, with 6 draws in 13 away league games.  

Roberto Róber will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for NEC Nijmegen.
