Team News

NEC Nijmegen
FC Utrecht
  • NEC captain Rens van Eijden and midfielder Mathias De Wolf are the only players unavailable for Rogier Meijer.
  • Édgar Barreto and Magnus Mattsson are both vying for starts, though NEC are expected to be unchanged from last time out.
  • There are no fewer than two players missing for René Hake ahead of this weeks match against NEC.
  • Tommy St. Jago and Christopher Mamengi are both sidelined.

Prediction

  • After the opening five rounds of this new Eredivisie season newly-promoted NEC find themselves sitting in seventh place with eight points. Things got off to a disastrous start when Ajax beat them 5-0 but they have recovered well and are unbeaten in four since then (W2, D2).
  • As for Utrecht they come into Wednesday's game one place above NEC due to their superior goal-difference. After winning two of their opening three games, a goalless draw at Groningen sandwiched between wins over Sparta Rotterdam and Feyenoord, they lost 1-0 at Twente before rescuing a point against RKC Waalwijk last time out.
