Willem II won’t want a repeat of their last result here following the 5-0 Eredivisie defeat last time out to Feyenoord.

Jens Toornstra (45'), Bryan Linssen (49'), Luis Sinisterra (52'), Steven Berghuis (63') and Orkun Kökçü (83') scored for Feyenoord.

It’s not been often in recent games where Willem II have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. It will be a concern for them that Tricolores have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 matches, shipping 15 goals during that time.
