Team News: Den Bosch
Availability isnโt a big problem, with just a single fitness concern for the Den Bosch gaffer Ulrich Landvreugd to be concerned about thanks to an almost full-strength group of players. Sebastian Karlsson Grach (unknown injury) is sidelined.

Team News: VVV-Venlo
From a largely full-strength squad, thereโs only the lone fitness worry for the VVV-Venlo boss John Lammers to be concerned about. Dylan Timber (Cruciate ligament injury) wonโt be in action.

Prediction
In our view, VVV-Venlo may not find it easy to be putting a goal past this Den Bosch outfit who we reckon should be able to get on the scoresheet themselves in a winning performance.
We therefore fancy a very even match with a 1-0 victory for Den Bosch at full-time.
Expecting it to be tight.
