Fortuna Sittard Preview – Can Sittard frustrate Vitesse?
Fortuna Sittard remained in mid-table in the Dutch Eredivisie in 10th place after losing a fourth game in their last six matches overall and this has sealed their fate in terms of any hopes of achieving a top seven finish as they now trail 7th placed Groningen by a margin of nine points with just two matches remaining.
Recent defeats to Utrecht, Feyenoord, Emmen and AZ have outweighed Sittard’s recent wins against Den Haag and Twente and the hosts face another tough evening at the office when Vitesse come to visit, especially as Fortuna Sittard have lost three of their last four at home as well.
Indeed, Sittard have managed to win just three of their last nine games at home, losing six of these nine games as well, while their recent record against Vitesse isn’t good as they’ve lost their last three meetings on the trot against their visitors
Vitesse Preview – Can Vitesse bounce back?
A heavy 3-0 defeat away from home at Sparta Rotterdam on the weekend ended Vitesse’s impressive run of eight matches without defeat in the Eredivisie and the visitors will be keen to bounce back with a win at Fortuna Sittard on Thursday night.
The best that Vitesse can finish though is where they currently sit and that’s in 4th place where they’ll figure in the EUFA Conference play-offs and they’ll be keen to improve upon an away record which stands at 7-2-7 23/23 here.
Vitesse have won just two of their last seven matches on the road with victories picked up at Utrecht and Twente, but they do hold a good record over their hosts in previous exchanges.
