As for Fortuna Sittard, although they also lost their last match, before that they picked up 3 wins from their last 5, especially back-to-back 3-2 victories that show the team still scores consistently. According to the expected line-ups, Willem II are likely to set up 4-2-3-1 with Devin Haen as the main striker and Tonny Trindade de Vilhena dictating the tempo in midfield, while Fortuna Sittard are expected to line up 5-4-1, defending deep and using Lequincio Zeefuik as the reference point up front.
