VVV-Venlo

Left-back has seen the most rotation for VVV-Venlo in recent weeks. Lars de Blok has started three of the last five matches there and supplied three assists in that time, while Philip Heise and Andreas Verstraeten have each made one start in the position. Verstraeten played the final 31 minutes against Jong Ajax.

Mohammed Odriss and Nassim Ait Mouhou have also shared the attacking-midfield role, with Odriss starting there three times in the last five games and Ait Mouhou once. Dijkhuizen has otherwise used a 4-2-3-1 in four of the last five matches, switching to a three-man defence once.

Jong AZ

Tycho de Wit and Bendegúz Kovács both missed Jong AZ's last match against FC Den Bosch despite starting three and two of the last five matches respectively. De Wit has a goal and four assists in that spell, while Kovács has scored three times in 200 minutes.

Centre-back has also been fluid, with Andrea Natali deployed on both sides of the central defence across the last five matches. Mathijs Menu, Kiani Inge and Frej Andersen have also featured in those positions. Up front, Jerolldino Armantrading has started three of the last five games and been withdrawn in every one, including at half-time in one match, while scoring three goals during that run.
