In Eredivisie action, NAC meet Willem II on May 18. The match is set to start at 12:30 UTC.
Fans are eager for the showdown as NAC and Willem II square off once more, 6 months after their previous Eredivisie meeting that concluded in a 2-2 stalemate. Coming off a loss to Zwolle last Sunday, NAC look to make a statement in this match, although they have been unable to secure a victory in their past thirteen games. Before facing Willem II, they will face NEC and Fortuna Sittard in Eredivisie, fixtures that are likely to influence their form and fitness ahead of their clash with Willem II. If they want to stop their recent slide, defensive solidity must be the focus, particularly since their backline has lacked consistency, having conceded goals in each of their last nine matches.
Willem II head into this fixture following a draw against NEC last Saturday. Their upcoming schedule leading up to NAC includes Zwolle and Heracles Almelo in Eredivisie, and how they perform in these games could set the tone for their encounter with NAC. Their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have allowed goals in sixteen consecutive matches.
This Eredivisie clash features attacking talents who have defined the campaigns of NAC and Willem II. NAC’s attacking options, with Carl Hoefkens at the helm, have been bolstered by Leo Sauer, the team’s top scorer, and Elias Omarsson, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. Sauer has already scored seven goals in Eredivisie this season, while Leemans has been their leading creator in the competition with four assists. Dominik Janosek, Jan Van Den Bergh and Boy Kemper have supported the attack well, combining for important goals and assists throughout the campaign.
Meanwhile, Ringo Meerveld and Kyan Vaesen have been pivotal for Willem II’s attack, carefully orchestrated by Peter Maes, combining to deliver important goals and assists. Willem II’s top scorer in Eredivisie, Bosch, has five goals this season, with Doodeman leading their creative tally in the league with three assists. Willem II’s offense has also been strengthened by Cisse Sandra, Jeremy Bokila and Emilio Kehrer, who have provided crucial contributions in the final third.
