Betting suggestion:

Sparta, playing at home, understands the importance of securing all three points and will therefore look to assert themselves in the game. Meanwhile, the visitors, aiming to spring a surprise, will need to go beyond defending and explore their attacking options. An open game with plenty of opportunities is expected. Our bet is on both teams to score during the match.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 8 home matches. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑1 (3 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 9 of their 16 matches for this competition, and have never been able to turn the score around.

Sparta Rotterdam is struggling this season, sitting near the bottom of the table and urgently needing a win to ease their situation. Despite their limitations, the team will aim to use home advantage to deliver a consistent performance and spring a surprise. They are aware of facing a technically superior opponent but hope to minimise errors and capitalise on the few chances they create. Defensive focus will be crucial to avoid a setback that could further complicate their position.

Confirmed Lineup: Nick Olij, Rick Meissen, Marvin Young, Saïd Bakari, Patrick van Aanholt, Joshua Kitolano, Arno Verschueren, Julian Baas, Pelle Clement, Tobias Lauritsen, Shunsuke Mito.
Coach: H. Fraser.

A victory is crucial to staying firmly in the title race.
