Sparta Rotterdam
Match Time & Date:

14:30
Prediction: 2-0
Cambuur
Sparta Rotterdam will look to bounce back from back-to-back defeats to PSV and Volendam when they take on Cambuur on Matchday 33. The Rotterdammers are eager to cement their spot in top six and they are seen as hot favourites to win Sunday’s clash. Experienced midfielder Jonathan de Guzman is pushing for a start, while fellow midfielder Mike Eerdhuijzen misses out through suspension.
The visitors, on the other hand, are stuck at the bottom with only 16 points in their pockets. The rock-bottom side have already suffered relegation to the Dutch second tier and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Sparta’s party in Rotterdam. The likes of Mambimbi, Virginia, Pichel, Maulun, and Gullit have been struggling with injuries of late, speaking of the away team. You should know that Cambuur have already suffered ten defeats on the road this term.
Highlighted Player (Aaron Meijers):
After spending his youth career at AVV Andijk and FC Volendam, Aaron Meijers continued playing for the Palingboeren at senior level. After scoring four goals in 124 league appearances for Volendam, the pacey left back joined fellow Dutch outfit RKC Waalwijk in 2010.
Aaaron Meijers quickly established himself as a first-team regular at RKC, but after playing 62 games in the league for the Yellow and Blues, he moved to ADO Den Haag in 2012. The Dutch footballer made his ADO Den Haag debut on August 12, 2012 in a 2-2 draw with Vitesse, and he has been playing for De Ooievaars ever since.
Aaaron Meijers was born in Delft, Netherlands on October 28, 1987. His main position is left-back, but he is capable of producing fine displays as central midfielder and left winger as well. His preferred foot is left, and he has a contract with ADO Den Haag until June 30, 2022.
Highlighted Team (Sparta Rotterdam):
Founded back on April 1, 1888, Sparta Rotterdam is considered one of the oldest clubs in the Netherlands. De Kasteelheren (the Castle Lords) welcome their opponents at Het Kasteel, and they have a great rivalry with Feyenoord. Yet another Rotterdam club Excelsior are considered Sparta’s fierce rivals as well.
Sparta Rotterdam wear white shirts with red strips when playing on home soil, while sky blue is the dominant colour of their away kit. De Kasteelheren have won six Eredivisie trophies. Sparta were the dominant force in the Dutch football in the 1910s, with the team winning their last league title in the 1958/59 season.
De Kasteelheren have won three Dutch Cup trophies as well (1957/58, 1961/62, 1965/66). In the 1985/86 season Sparta last participated in the UEFA Cup, with the team beating Hamburger SC in round 1, while suffering elimination to Borussia Monchengladbach in the second round. Sparta’s stadium Het Kasteel can hold up to 11,926 spectators.
