Sports Mole

Go Ahead Eagles prepare for the visit of Vitesse on Sunday with both teams looking to avoid a third consecutive defeat.

This weekend's hosts seek to complete a league double over their visitors off the back of a 2-1 win in the reverse fixture.


Match preview

Vitesse fell to a narrow 1-0 loss against Willem II in last Sunday's meeting at the Konig Willem II Stadion.

Jizz Hornkamp opened the scoring in the fourth minute and that was enough to sink Thomas Letsch's men in Tilburg.

Geel en Zwart remain sixth in the Eredivisie table but are now all but guaranteed to secure a European place with just four games left.

Their next assignment comes against an opposing side who have won just one of the most recent seven meetings between the teams dating back to 2013.

However, Sunday's visitors are yet to come out on top in any of their last nine games away from home, and they will be keen to end their winless streak on the road.

Go Ahead Eagles failed to pick up a fourth Eredivisie win on the spin following a 1-0 defeat to Fortuna Sittard at the Fortuna Sittard Stadion on Sunday.

Zian Flemming's 21st-minute strike proved to be the difference as Kees Van Wonderen's men came away empty-handed from a cagey affair.

The Pride of the IJssel Kowet are still ninth in the league table, but their chance of securing a Conference League playoff spot now looks to be over.

Having conceded the fewest number of goals in the entire division over the last five matchdays, Sunday's hosts will be looking to exhibit their newly-found defensive solidity once again.

Team News

Maximilian Wittek missed Vitesse's last outing due to injury and the German is expected to sit out Sunday's contest as well.

The visitors will also be without the services of Jeroen Houwen as the goalkeeper continues to nurse a bone fracture.

As a result, Markus Schubert will retain his place between the sticks behind a defensive unit of Jacob Rasmussen, Riechedly Bazoer and Danilho Doekhi.

Jay Idzes and Giannis-Fivos Botos are unavailable for Go Ahead Eagles due to knee and muscle injuries respectively.

Luuk Brouwers is one to look out for after he put up a man-of-the-match performance in the reverse fixture, directly contributing to both of his side's two goals.

Go Ahead Eagles possible starting lineup:
Noppert; Kuipers, Kramer, Nauber, Martina; Oratmangoen, Brouwers, Rommens, Deijl; Lidberg, Cordoba

Vitesse possible starting lineup:
Schubert; Rasmussen, Bazoer, Doekhi; Tronstad; Manhoef, Huisman, Bero, Dasa; Openda, Grbic


We say: Go Ahead Eagles 1-1 Vitesse

Vitesse have struggled at both ends of the pitch of late, and they will be seeking to turn things around, while Go Ahead Eagles set out to get back on track having hit a bump in the road last time out. We are tipping the sides to cancel each other out over the 90 minutes, resulting in a share of the spoils.
