Predictions and Odds for Vitesse vs NEC Nijmegen
Vitesse is looking for the home fans' support to finally win after going four matches without one, while NEC will be dedicated to preserving their good record this season, especially with the way they are subduing their opponents which is something not many have predicted it would happen.
Contents
Under 2.5 Goals
These are teams that are the exact opposites when it comes to the ‘over-under' aspect. Vitesse is the third-best ‘over' team in the league with eleven games with more than two goals scored, while NEC is the best ‘under' team with the same amount of games, but that had fewer than three goals scored. With the way they are playing this season, it's about keeping the net clean, and NEC has proved to be almost an expert in doing just that.
Draw
No team had more draw games this season than NEC, their record stands at nine, three of which were earned as an away team. Vitesse had three straight matches with a draw, and in a situation when the host's needs are based on simply not losing a game, and with the visiting team being satisfied with getting at least a point wherever they play, a draw seems like a logical assumption.

Predicted Lineups, Team News, and Preview
Vitesse
The Arnhem team has had a tough season thus far fighting to remain out of the relegation zone. They have returned from the winter break by drawing 1-1 at one of the title favorites AZ Alkmaar, but there is more work that has to be done to complete their survival. This is a club that not long ago went through a difficult time with their finances, and they are still struggling, so remaining in the Eredivisie is essential for their continued survival. Not many could have predicted that they would have only three wins in this part of the season, but now the real work begins. Against NEC the home team will be looking for their first win since October. Vitesse doesn't have injury problems for the game.
Predicted lineup: Scherpen, Arcus, Flamingo, Meulensteen, Dijks, Kozlowski, Tronstad, Manhoef, Bero, Vidovic, Bialek.
NEC Nijmegen
The visitors had a good start to the week by winning their Cup match at Almere City by the score of 4-0. It was a rare feat to get so many goals, especially away from home, and this result will give the team a positive outlook before the game at Arnhem. NEC had a part of the season where they had seven draw games in a row, they are at number nine at the moment, by far the highest mark in the league. It's strange to see the ranking with NEC being at the ninth spot, but with only three wins in 15 games this season. However, they have only three losses as well, and that is a good accomplishment for a team that not long ago was playing in the Second Division. Robin Roefs, Fannar Baldursson, and Mathias De Wolf are doubtful to play against Vitesse.
Predicted lineup: Branderhorst, van Rooij, Marquez, Kramer, El Karaouani, Proper, Schone, Tannane, Tavsan, Rosendo, Cissoko.
Starting lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
Vitesse
NEC
Player to Watch: Oussama Tannane
Tannane has been the outstanding performer for NEC this season scoring a couple of goals, but leading the team with five assists. He is an attacking midfielder that likes to involve his teammates in the tactical decisions in front of the opposing goal.
