Sparta Rotterdam
Vitesse
  • Head coach Jeroen Rijsdijk is missing Mike Eerdhuijzen and Sergi Rosanas this week.
  • Davy Pröpper and Thomas Buitink are both ruled out for Vitesse this weekend through injury.

Prediction

  • Sparta Rotterdam find themselves sitting in sixth place on eight points through five matches. The hosts lost for the first time last time out when they suffered a 2-0 loss at AZ, ending a four-match unbeaten streak (two wins and two draws). Vitesse, meanwhile, slumped 2-0 against RKC Waalwijk at home, their third consecutive loss, leaving them in 14th place on three points
  • Sparta have got the better of Vitesse lately, unbeaten in their last five Eredivisie matches (four wins and one draw). Vitesse are looking for their first league win over Sparta since September 2020. The Rotterdammers have outscored their Arnhem-based rivals 13-3 during their unbeaten streak.
  • Koki Saito, Tobias Lauritsen and Charles-Andreas Brym have stepped up for Sparta this season. They are the club's joint top scorers with two goals. Marco van Ginkel has been Vitesse's leading attacking threat, also netting twice, including one match-opening goal.
  • Sparta are currently on a four-game winless streak at home (three draws and one loss). Vitesse were victorious in their only previous Eredivisie contest away from GelreDome this season.
