Prediction: 2-1
Sparta Rotterdam
A spot in the Conference League wil be at stake when Twente and Sparta Rotterdam face each other at De Grolsch Veste on Sunday. The two teams played out a 1-1 draw in the first leg, but the Reds are seen as hot favourites to win the reverse fixture. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, but both Salah-Eddine and Bruns remain in the recovery room.
The Rotterdammers, on the other hand, failed to defend their slim lead in the first leg and seeing that Twente have turned their De Grolsch Veste into a real fortress, home win should be considered. As for the visiting side, experienced midfielder Jonathan de Guzman is pushing for a start. Maurice Steijn should have a full squad to choose from for the decider, but we do not believe this is going to help the visitors spoil Twente’s party in Enschede.
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 (Twente):
Based in the city of Enschede, Twente is a Dutch football club that welcomes their rivals at De Grolsch Veste. The venue was opened on May 10, 1998, and the capacity of the stadium is 30,205 people. The club was founded in 1965 as a merger of Sportsclub Enschede and Enschedese Boys.
The Reds did remarkably well to win the Eredivisie title in the 2009/10 season, with the team finishing the process only one point clear of Dutch giants Ajax. As a result, Twente booked their place in the Champions League group stages. The Reds did well to collect six points in their group, but that did not help them make it to the last 16.
Twente are well known for their red jerseys, but they wear dark blue shirts when playing on the travels. The Reds take on Heracles Almelo in the Twentse Derby. Sander Boshchker is leading Twente’s all-time goal-scoring chart with 653 goals on his account.
