• Cambuur team news: Johan Plat is missing Wout Asselman and Daan Visser, with the latter still recovering from cruciate ligament surgery. Thijs Jansen is likely to start in goal behind Devid Eugene Bouah, Ismaël Baouf, Billy van Duijl and Morgan Costarelli.

• Cambuur team news: Jamal Amofa and Nicky Souren are likely to anchor the midfield, with Souren tasked with helping Cambuur progress the ball more smoothly from deeper positions. Their discipline will be crucial against an NEC side comfortable dominating possession and working through central areas.

• Nec Nijmegen team news: Dick Schreuder has a long list of absentees, with Bryan Linssen, Bram Nuytinck, Emre Mor, Kaj Sierhuis, Ahmetcan Kaplan, Deveron Fonville and Yassin Moslih unavailable, while Darko Nejasmic is being rested.

• Nec Nijmegen team news: Nikolas Polster is likely to start in goal behind Philippe Sandler, Tobias Storm and Gabriel Brás. The reshuffled back three will need to avoid the individual mistakes that have contributed to NEC going through all five league matches without keeping a clean sheet.

• Cambuur are without 2 — Daan Visser (Out - injured), Wout Asselman (Out - injured).

• Nec Nijmegen are without 8 — Darko Nejasmic (Out - other), Kaj Sierhuis (Out - injured), Ahmetcan Kaplan (Out - injured), Yassin Moslih (Out - injured), Deveron Fonville (Out - injured), Bryan Linssen (Out - injured).
