Our prediction for this Netherlands Eredivisie match:
After holding Utrecht to a 1-1 draw on the road, Fortuna Sittard will be looking to give fans yet another reason for celebration when they take on RKC on Matchday 14. Fortuna gave been in a fine form of late, with the team collecting seven points from possible nine, and they are surely capable of beating RKC, who experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-1 loss to PSV.
In their last home game in the Dutch top flight the Fortunezen defeated Willem II 3-2. The good news for the hosts is that midfielder Lazaros Rota returns from suspension. RKC have recorded two wins on the road this season, with the team beating both Twente and Heracles, but given Fortuna’s form in December, we predict that the visitors are going to return home empty-handed. Experienced attacker Ola John is likely to miss Tuesday’s clash with injury.

Highlighted Team (Waalwijk):

RKC Waalwijk is a Dutch club that competes in the Eredivisie. RKC returned to the Dutch top flight in the 2019/20 season, and they were more than fortunate not to suffer relegation back to Eerste Divisie. Fred Grim’s men were stuck at the bottom of the table when the season was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
As a result, they did not drop to the Dutch second tier. RKC play home games at Mandemakers Stadion, the venue which can hold only 7,500 spectators. RKC Waalwijk are well known for their yellow shirts with blue strips, but their away kit is mainly black. The Mandemakers Stadion outfit have never won the national championship.
RKC, though, represented the Netherlands in European competitions in the past, with team taking part in Intertoto Cup on four occasions. Willem II are seen as one of the club’s main rivals, with the two teams facing each other in the Brabantse derby.
