Team News

Willem II
NEC Nijmegen
  • No fewer than five players are unavailable to Willem II head coach Peter Maes this weekend.
  • Rob Nizet, Cisse Sandra, Kyan Vaesen, Amar Fatah, Niels van Berkel, Mickael Tirpan and Dani Mathieu are ruled out through injury.
  • Bram Nuytinck, Thomas Ouwejan and Dirk Proper are the only players missing for NEC, who shouldn't be too unchanged from last time out.

Prediction

  • Willem II currently occupies 11th place in the Eredivisie standings with 19 points after 16 matches. They secured a 1-0 victory in their last league match at MAC³PARK Stadion against PEC Zwolle, which ended a three-match winless streak.
  • On the other hand, NEC’s last league fixture ended in a 1-1 draw against Sparta Rotterdam at Goffertstadion, extending their winless streak to four matches.
  • In their previous encounter, NEC triumphed over Willem II with a 1-0 victory at Koning Willem II Stadion in December 2021, thanks to a goal from Magnus Mattsson in the 38th minute.
  • During the 2024/2025 season, Willem II has been led by Cisse Sandra, Kyan Vaesen, and Ringo Meerveld, with Sandra and Vaesen tied as the team's top scorers, each netting four goals, while Meerveld has contributed three goals.
  • For NEC, their leading players in the forward position have been Koki Ogawa and Sontje Hansen, who have scored five and four goals, respectively.
  • At home, this season Willem II has earned eight points out of a possible 24 in their eight Eredivisie matches. The Tricolores are currently on a five-match winless streak at home, dating back to a victory against PSV on September 28. NEC has recorded two wins and five losses in their away matches this season.
