Our prediction for this Netherlands Eredivisie match:
Mademakers Stadion will host Sunday’s football game between RKC Waalwijk and Cambuur, the two bottom-table sides. RKC showed character in their last league match, with the team beating Sparta at home thanks to Michiel Kramer’s late goal. The hosts aim to keep on climbing the standings, but they will have to do it without Joel Pereira and Richard van der Venne, who remain in the recovery room.
Cambuur, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team losing each of their last three league fixtures. The newcomers are eager to put an end to the negative trend, but seeing that RKC are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we are not tempted to put our money on the visiting side. Michael Breij is rated doubtful for the visitors, and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
Highlighted Player (Vurnon Anita):
Vurnon Anita is yet another product of famous Ajax youth football academy. The defensive midfielder made a great progress during his spell with the Eredivisie outfit as he played for the first team from 2006 to 2012. During the 2011/2012 season Anita was on Newcastle United’s radar, but Ajax chiefs rejected Newcastle’s first bid for the player.
Nonetheless, the two clubs eventually came to an agreement and the Dutch footballer moved to St. James’ Park in the summer of 2012. Vurnon Anita signed for the Magpies for a fee of £6.7 million and he made his Newcastle debut on August 18, 2012 in a 2-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur in the opening game of the season.
After making 133 appearances in the league for the Magpies, Anita joined Leeds United on July 6, 2017, signing a three-year deal with the Championship club. Vurnon Anita made his debut for Netherlands in a 2-1 win over Mexico in May, 2010. His main position is defensive midfield, but he can play as a full-back as well.
