๐๏ธ Team News: FC Emmen
Jeff Hardeveld (Cruciate Ligament Injury), Metehan Gรผรงlรผ (Cruciate Ligament Injury), Oussama Darfalou (Hamstring Injury), Mart Lieder (Fitness), Rui Mendes (Medial Collateral Ligament Injury) and Maikel Kieftenbeld (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) wonโt be available for FC Emmen gaffer Dick Lukkien. Richairo ลฝivkoviฤ cannot play in this game through suspension.
It looks as if Rood-Witten look set to line up in a 4-2-3-1 system this time with Mickey van der Hart, Mohamed Bouchouari, Miguel Araujo, Jeroen Veldmate, Julius Dirksen, Lucas Bernadou, Keziah Veendorp, Mark Diemers, Ahmed El Messaoudi, Jeremy Antonisse and Richairo Zivkovic.
๐ Team News: Sparta Rotterdam
From a largely healthy group of players, there is only the sole fitness problem for the Sparta Rotterdam boss Maurice Steijn to be concerned about. Jonathan de Guzmรกn (Unknown Injury) wonโt be playing here. Adil Auassar will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.
Weโre of the thinking that Kasteelheren seem most likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 system by sending out Nick Olij, Shurandy Sambo, Dirk Abels, Mike Eerdhuijzen, Michael Pinto, Joshua Kitolano, Jonathan de Guzman, Vito van Crooij, Arno Verschueren, Koki Saito and Tobias Lauritsen.
๐ญ Prediction
In our opinion, Sparta Rotterdam and FC Emmen could end up without much reward for their efforts here.
Little in this one, and itโs almost too close to call. Thatโs why we have predicted a very even match with a 0-0 scoreline at the end of the 90 minutes.
