ℹ️ Team News: FC Twente

The FC Twente manager Ron Jans has no fitness worries at all coming into this clash owing to a completely injury-free group available to select from.

It seems likely that De Tukkers could employ a 4-1-4-1 system for this game featuring Lars Unnerstall, Joshua Brenet, Mees Hilgers, Robin Propper, Gijs Smal, Ramiz Zerrouki, Vaclav Cerny, Michel Vlap, Anass Salah-Eddine, Virgil Misidjan and R. van Wolfswinkel.
