Match Time & Date:

14:30
Prediction: 2-1
Willem II
There will be fireworks when Den Haag and Willem II face each other in the relegation six-pointer at Cars Jeans Stadion. Den Haag aim to build on back-to-back wins over Feyenoord and Zwolle, and, no doubt, their pride will be at stake in the remainder of the season. Despite failing to secure the Eredivisie survival, the rock-bottom side obviously want to finish the season in great manner.
The Tricolores, on the other hand, are only one point clear of the relegation zone. Willem II are fighting hard to avoid relegation, but beating the in-form hosts at Cars Jeans Stadion is easier said than done. Den Haag are determined to emerge triumphant in their last home game of the process, and we predict that they are going to prove their worth on the field. The good news for the hosts is that both Kramer and Besuijen return from suspension.
Highlighted Player (Ravel Morrison):
Ravel Morrison is a product of the Manchester United football academy, who played for various European clubs before joining Den Haag in 2020. Morisson spent his youth career at Man Utd, but he did not see any game action with the Red Devils in the Premier League.
The attacking midfielder played for the likes of West Ham, Birmingham City, QPR, Cardiff City, Lazio, Atlas, Ostersund, Sheffield Utd, and Middlesbrough before moving to the Netherlands. Morisson made his Den Haag debut in a 2-0 loss to Vitesse on October 18, 2020. Speaking of his international career, it has to be noted that the Den Haag No. 5 has four caps with the England U21 team.
He played for the U16, U17, and U18 teams as well. Ravel Morrison has a dual citizenship, and, as a result, he is eligible to play for both England and Jamaica at senior level.
Highlighted Team (Willem II):
Based in Tilburg, Netherlands, Willem II is a professional football club that competes in the Eredivisie. The Tricolores were founded back in August 1896 under the name of Tilburgia, but the club’s first big success came in the 1915/16 season when they won the national championship.
Willem II repeated the success in the 1951/52 Eredivisie campaign, with the team winning their third domestic trophy three years later. When it comes to KNVB Cup, the Tricolores have won it on two occasions (1943/44, 1962/63). Willem II are well known for their white shirts with red and blue strips, while their away kit is mainly mint with dark navy accents.
The Tricolores play home matches at Koning Willem II Stadion, the venue with the capacity of 14,700 spectators. Willem II have fierce rivals in Nac Breda, as the cities of Breda and Tilburg are only 20 kilometers apart. Former Barcelona and Arsenal star Marc Overmars is one of the most notable footballers who played for the club.
