Excelsior
The two-week break came at the right time for Excelsior who are in the middle of a battle to stave off relegation. The Rotterdam team's form went downhill in the second part of the season, and before the season took another vacation due to international matches, Excelsior managed to beat Cambuur to get a positive mindset before the season enters its final stage. Adrian Fein, Vicente Besuijen, Maxime Awoudja, and Jacky Donkor are doubtful to play.
Provisional lineup: van Gassel, Zagre, el Yaakoubi, Nieuwpoort, Horemans, Goudmijn, Koomeiners, Lamprou, Baas, Azarkan, Agrafiotis.
Twente
The Enschede outfit had some tough losses in the past couple of months, but just before the international break, they scored a couple of victories to ease the tension in the lockerroom. They still have a shot at ending the season in the top three, and this is something that would thrill the fan base. There are some health concerns for Twente: Mees Hilgers, Manfred Ugalde, and Mathias Kjolo are missing via injuries, while Denilho Cleonise, Daan Rots, Michal Sadilek, and Wout Brama are doubtful.
