Team News
The interim coaching team takes over with a long injury list, including Wouter van der Steen, Thomas Didillon-Hödl, Justin Hoogma, Calvin Twigt, Amine Lachkar, Armin Culum, and Thijs Muller.
Maxime Delanghe is likely to remain in goal, with Hidde ter Avest, Finn Stam, Maxim Dekker and Nathan Tjoe-A-On forming the defensive line. Willem II have shipped 26 goals and haven't managed a clean sheet this term, so defensive solidity is a key area for Schenkel and Hendrix to focus on.
Tonny Vilhena and Anass Zarrouk are likely to partner in midfield, with Jaden Slory, Uriël van Aalst and Vito van Crooij playing in advanced roles. Van Aalst, Van Crooij and Tjoe-A-On are joint-top of the assists chart with two each.
Devin Haen is set to lead the attack and continues to be Willem II’s top scorer with three league goals. The hosts have found the net just five times in their last five fixtures, but they will need to improve at both ends to secure their first win.
Johan Plat is required to make at least one enforced change due to Devid Eugene Bouah’s suspension, with Rik Mulder likely to take his place at right-back. Wout Asselman and Jamal Amofa remain unavailable.
Thijs Jansen is expected to start in midfield, with Mulders, Ismaël Baouf, Billy van Duijl and Morgan Costarelli operating in front of him. Cambuur have conceded 21 goals this season and a league-high four penalties, but their resilience with ten men against AZ showed they can hold out under pressure.
Mathieu Maertens and Nicky Souren are likely to provide a solid base in midfield, allowing Jason Ceka, Rafik El Arguioui and Ilyes Hamache to play in more advanced roles. El Arguioui and Hamache are joint-top scorers with four goals each, with Hamache also netting against AZ.
Nicolas Binder is set to lead the line after scoring in the previous draw, with the forward also sharing Cambuur’s assist lead with Billy van Duijl on two. Nine goals in their last five matches suggest Plat’s side should create chances against a Willem II defence that has struggled all season.
Odds
Willem Ii Win: 2.55
DRAW: 3.75

The read: With barely anything between them on price, this is one to leave alone in the 1X2 market and attack in the goals or handicap markets instead.
