NEC

Perr Schuurs continues to be shuffled around NEC's side, having started the last four matches in defence or midfield but been substituted every time; he is set to feature again at the back for the visit of Omonia Nicosia. Deveron Fonville, who did not play against sc Heerenveen after starting four of the previous matches, is expected to return at left-back.

Tjaronn Chery and Clement Bischoff, who have each scored twice in their recent starts, are expected to keep their places. Bryan Linssen, who has also scored twice in the last five matches, looks set to continue as Dick Schreuder's side try to respond to the heavy defeat at Juventus.

Omonia Nicosia

Omonia have David Akintola available again after his recovery from injury. He completed only one full training session before the win over AEL and was not used as a precaution. Jean-Kévin Duverne's recent problem appeared to be cramp, while Jure Balkovec needed further assessment after experiencing discomfort.

Jaden Montnor has started all five of Omonia's latest matches and been substituted each time. Muamer Tankovic has followed the same pattern in his three starts, while Carel Eiting remains out with a knee injury.
