    Team News

    • Danny Buijs has minimal selection issues, with only Ole Romeny unavailable due to an ankle sprain. Fortuna Sittard have earned 19 points from their first 11 league games and have gone unbeaten in six matches, though four of those games ended in draws.

    • Mattijs Branderhorst is likely to keep his place in goal behind Justin Hubner, Syb van Ottele and Rodrigo Guth. Fortuna’s defensive setup was notably strong against Feyenoord, as their compact shape restricted chances despite dominating possession.

    • Mohamed Ihattaren, Ivo Pinto, Philip Brittijn, Jasper Dahlhaus and Shiloh ’t Zand are set to feature across midfield. Ihattaren tops Fortuna’s assist charts with four league deliveries and has crafted four big chances, making him their main creative threat.

    • Anthony Descotte is expected to play alongside Lequincio Zeefuik in attack, having scored five Eredivisie goals this season, the most by any teammate. Fortuna have scored seven times in their last five league matches, with Descotte’s finishing contributing significantly to their attacking output.

    • Henk Brugge will be without Rui Mendes and Gerald Alders, both still out with injuries. Telstar have scored 11 goals in their last five league games, though their defensive record remains weak, with 23 goals conceded in 11 matches.

    • Ronald Koeman Jr. is set to start alongside Gabi Caschili, Sem Valk, Abdelnour Soualhia and Marvin Peersman. His 4.4 saves per Eredivisie game is one of the top two tallies in the league, highlighting Telstar’s defensive demands.

    • The midfield is expected to be led by Isaiah Ahmed and Nils Rossen, with Ar’jany Martha, Tyrone Owusu and Emirhan Demircan providing attacking width. Owusu tops Telstar’s scoring charts with five league goals, while Patrick Brouwer and Noach Shenkman are tied on two assists each.

    • Nökkvi Thórisson is expected to lead the line after Telstar’s four-goal display against Utrecht. The visitors have scored 16 goals this season, averaging 1.45 per match, although their inability to keep a clean sheet in six straight fixtures continues to hamper their attacking progress.
