Our prediction for this Netherlands Eredivisie match:
Gofferstadion will host Saturday’s Eredivisie game between NEC and Twente, the two top-table sides. NEC aim to build on a 2-1 win over Cambuur, and they obviously want to keep their Conference League hopes alive. Edgar Barreto remains in the recovery room, but there are no fresh injury worries in the home team. Keep in mind, though, that NEC failed to win the previous eight home fixtures in the Dutch top flight.
Twente, on the other hand, head into the match following a 3-3 draw with PSV. The Reds dropped two points in the clash with Roger Schmidt’s troops, but their display is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the trip to Nijmegen. Ron Jans is unlikely to make changes to the team that shared the spoils with PSV. Anyhow, away win should be considered as Twente looked sharp in front of goal at the weekend.
