Sparta Rotterdam Preview – Can Sparta win back-to-back?
Sparta Rotterdam finally got themselves off the mark in the Dutch top flight last time out when they registered a 3-1 home win over Fortuna Sittard and the hosts will be looking for more of the same when they play host to NEC on Friday night.
Sparta had previously been handed defeats by Utrecht and Go Ahead Eagles but both of these losses were incurred away from home while Sparta also gained a point in a 1-1 draw at home with Heracles, so the hosts certainly stand a decent chance here on home turf.
In addition, Sparta Rotterdam are unbeaten in their last seven home games, winning five of these and keeping four clean sheets in the process.
NEC Preview – Can NEC extend unbeaten run?
Following a heavy 5-0 thrashing away from home at the hands of Ajax on the opening day of the new Eredivisie season, Friday night’s visitors, NEC, have since steadied the ship by putting together a three-match unbeaten run in the Dutch top flight.
Back-to-back wins against PEC Zwolle and Heracles have seen NEC make a comeback along with picking up a useful point in a 0-0 draw at home with Willem II last time out and they’ll be confident that they can get something from this visit to Sparta on Friday night.
However, the majority of positive results for NEC have been achieved at home while on the road, NEC have won just two of their last `10 away games, losing eight of these.
