Fortuna Sittard will be looking for a win that could move them into the top half of the Eredivisie table when they play host Sparta Rotterdam on Friday night.
The hosts go into this game with a lot of confidence, having lost only one of their last four league games. Given that this streak includes two wins, it wouldn't be a surprise to see Julio Velázquez's side take all three points. However, their defense, which has only managed to finish one of their last nine league games without conceding a goal, remains a problem that needs to be addressed.
As for Sparta Rotterdam, they still have a chance of securing a European spot despite their recent form, as they are only five points behind third place. Of the five league games the visitors have played since the start of the new year, only two have been won, but they would be delighted to have lost none either. However, having won only one of their last three encounters with Fortuna at this stadium, they will have to be at their best to take three points here.
