Fortuna Sittard

Fortuna Sittard have fitness doubts at both ends of the pitch for the visit of Telstar. Rodrigo Guth, forced off early in the draw at Feyenoord, and Lequincio Zeefuik are both doubtful but remain in line to continue at right-back and up front. Edouard Michut's own fitness issue may keep him out after three starts in Fortuna's last five matches, and Ramazan Bayram remains unavailable with a knee injury.

Buijs is expected to use a five-man defence again, with Guth joined by Justin Hubner, Syb van Ottele, Ivo Pinto and Jasper Dahlhaus. Philip Brittijn, who has started every match in this run, should play in midfield, with Mohamed Ihattaren continuing further forward alongside Shiloh ’t Zand and Anthony Descotte.

Telstar

Patrick Brouwer and Gerald Alders are both doubtful for Telstar's visit to Fortuna Sittard, which could leave Emirhan Demircan on the left after making his first start in Telstar's past five matches. Ar'jany Martha is expected to keep his place on the right after starting against FC Utrecht.

Tyrone Owusu, who has scored five goals in five starts during this run, should continue in central midfield alongside Nils Rossen, while Nökkvi Þórisson is expected to lead the line after starting four of Telstar's last five matches. Ronald Koeman Jr. and the same back four from the win over FC Utrecht are also expected to start.
