As in some other European leagues, the Dutch Eredivisie will start the next day on Friday. This leads to the duel of two teams, which are only one rank apart in the table. The speech is by Willem II and Sparta Rotterdam. The kick-off of the meeting is on 27 January at 19:00.
The team of Willem II will fight against the descent in the current season of the highest Dutch game class. It is no wonder, however, that in the past nineteen seasons only four victories have been won. The latest results also give little hope. Because of the last two games there was not a single point gain, instead you lost two times close with 0: 1. The opponents were table leader Feyernoord Rotterdam and the team of NEC Nijmegen. The first season’s duel with Sparta Rotterdam, however, is at least a bit of hope for improvement, after all, they won a 2-2 draw against Feyernoord’s city rivals. In addition, the team has already proved that they can start a series. Before the two defeats, the team of Erwin van de Looi remained strong five games without defeat. However, the failures against the leader and NEC also show the greatest problem of Willem II, namely the goal shooting. Nine out of 19 games ended the van der Looi-Elf without their own hits, and also only in two seasons games scored more than one goal. Roda Kerkrade is the weakest attack division in the entire league with only twelve season matches. The hopes of improvement are currently at the center of the striker Fran Sol. The Spaniard brought it in seventeen seven seasons.
Feyernoord, of course, can not compete with Sparta, but that should not be the goal of the team. Instead, as with opponent Willem II, it will be about securing the class retention as quickly as possible. Currently you are only one point behind the opponent, which should be an additional spur. Positive: The team of coach Alex Pastoor can compete at the weekend in the best position, are currently no home players injured or beaten. That was it with good news in connection with the club from the port city. For Sparta’s results are much weaker than those of his opponent. Since seven games the pastoral elf has been without success. In addition, three of the four seasons have been celebrated in front of their own audience, while only one victory has been achieved so far. However, they are on the second day when PEC Zwolle were beaten 3-0. Accordingly, you have been in a foreign country since mid-August (!) Winless. Lastly, there was still a 1: 1 draw against the league tables and Europa League starter AZ Alkmaar. Before that they lost to Ultrecht (1: 2), The Hague (0-1) and Arnheim (0-1). A good indicator for Friday could also be the match against table leader Feyernoord. While Willem II was able to compete at least 0: 1 at least half the time, Sparta Rotterdam were the first to defeat the season so far.
