Vitesse

Vitesse go into this one with changes possible at the back. Xiamaro Thenu, a regular at left-back across four of the last five matches, played no part against Jong Ajax. On the opposite flank, Nathangelo Markelo started after Solomon Bonnah had previously filled the right-back role three times. The right-sided centre-back position has also rotated between Valon Zumberi and Marcus Steffen.

Luuk Wouters made his first start of the last five matches against Jong Ajax. Rehm has otherwise largely kept the 4-2-3-1 used in four of those games, with Vitesse switching to a 4-3-1-2 once.

De Graafschap

De Graafschap have rotated at right-back, where Nolan Martens has started twice and Jannes Wieckhoff once during the last five matches. Ties Wieggers has remained the regular goalkeeper, starting four of those games, while Paul Reverson made one start and played no part in the recent win over FC Volendam.

Clint Leemans made his first start of this five-match run in that same game. Donny Warmerdam has continued in a holding role and scored twice during the period, while De Graafschap arrive at Vitesse unbeaten in their last two matches.
