Excelsior will look to make amends for back-to-back defeats to PSV and Heerenveen when they face Fortuna Sittard on Matchday 9. The Rotterdammers suffered a dip in form, but they are still seen as slim favourites to beat Fortuna Sittard at their Stadion Woudestein. Duo Mitrovic – van Duinen is pushing for a start, while midfielder Lennard Hartjes continues to miss out with injury.
Danny Buijs’ men, on the other hand, quickly bounced back from a 3-2 loss to Twente, with the team beating FC Volendam 1-0 before the international break. Fortuna Sittard, though, have already suffered three defeats on the road this season and we do not believe that they are capable of grabbing more than one point from Sunday’s encounter. All Pierie, Donkor, and Hartjes are out of contention with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the visiting team. Anyhow, a close encounter is on the cards at Stadion Woudestein.
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Sunday 19 October 2025 at 13:30.
