FC Twente
John van den Brom has ruled out extensive rotation after Twente's emphatic win at Excelsior. He confirmed that Daouda Weidmann will play again, having served his domestic suspension at the weekend. Thomas van den Belt scored and assisted as his replacement in the 9-0 victory, but Weidmann is expected to reclaim the midfield position alongside Ramiz Zerrouki.
Sondre Ørjasæter strengthened his case for another start with five assists at Excelsior, while Wout Weghorst scored four times. Younes Taha and Daan Rots are likely to retain their attacking roles, leaving Marko Pjaca as a strong option from the bench. At the back, Joël Drommel should continue in goal behind a defence led by Robin Pröpper and Ruud Nijstad. Lars Unnerstall, Max Bruns, Stav Lemkin and Filip Thorvaldsen remain unavailable. Although Ajax visit on Sunday, the manager has made clear that he does not intend to make many changes.
Pafos
Pafos have lost several important options ahead of their trip to Enschede. Biel, Pêpê, David Goldar and Moumi Ngamaleu are all out injured, leaving Ricardo Sá Pinto with decisions to make across the side. Ken Sema could take Biel's place on the left, with João Correia on the opposite flank and Lelê leading the line. Anderson Silva is pushing for minutes after his late equaliser against Apollon Limassol.
There is better news in central defence, where Samy Mmaee has travelled after recovering sufficiently to rejoin the squad. He could partner David Luiz, although Alexandre Brito is a credible alternative after starting at Apollon. Radosław Majecki is expected to remain in goal, with Ivan Šunjić and Guga providing a platform for Vlad Dragomir. Pafos have drawn their last four matches and collected one point from their opening two Conference League games, making the balance between defensive stability and attacking changes particularly important.
