- FC Twente chasing first home victory under John van den Brom
- Fortuna Sittard looking to capitalize on Twente’s leaky defense
- Both sides average three goals per match this season
- Head-to-head history favors Twente with five straight wins before April’s draw
John van den Brom’s start at Twente couldn’t have been louder: a 5-1 demolition of Sparta Rotterdam. Five different scorers, Hlynsson pulling strings in midfield, and a fanbase that finally saw glimpses of attacking swagger again. Still, the home record is a sore point: a 2-0 defeat to PSV and a 2-2 draw with NAC Breda. Can Van den Brom’s debut energy carry over into Enschede, or will those old frailties creep back in?
History offers encouragement. Twente had won five league matches in a row against Sittard before April’s 1-1 draw, including shutting them out twice in Enschede. Add to that Van den Brom’s personal record: unbeaten in five against Danny Buijs and confidence naturally builds. But football isn’t played on paper, and the whispers about Twente’s inability to keep a clean sheet this season make this a tricky one to call.
Fortuna, for their part, come in with a bit of bite. Their 3-1 win over Telstar and the NEC thriller (3-2) show they’ve got goals in them, even if consistency on the road has been shaky. Seven goals in their last four league outings underline their attacking intent, and Mohamed Ihattaren’s form, three goals and an assist, gives Buijs a genuine match-winner. The question is, can they finally topple Van den Brom?
The visitors have their own headaches though: Halilovic, Sinkgraven, and Bastien all dealing with injuries or illness. That said, they’ll be eyeing Twente’s defensive stats with interest, conceding twice per home game so far. It’s hard to see either side keeping things tight, and given both teams’ knack for high-scoring affairs (100% over 1.5 goals this season), this one has the feel of a wide-open battle. Still, when push comes to shove, the home side might just edge it. Bold? Maybe. But that’s football.
One thing’s for sure: this fixture rarely disappoints. For punters, it’s a clash where the form book says goals, but the deeper story says momentum could tip it Twente’s way. As far as Eredivisie Predictions go, this one has all the ingredients for drama.
FC Twente face Fortuna Sittard on Friday night in a crucial Eredivisie clash, with just three points separating the sides. Coach John van den Brom is praised for his calm leadership, though analyst René Wagelaar warns the 5-1 win at Sparta can’t be expected weekly. Strengthened by signings like Orjasaeter and Pjaca, Twente target European football, aiming at least for the play-offs. TwenteInsite.
Backing Twente to win makes sense when you put recent form under the microscope. Van den Brom’s men may have stumbled at home earlier, but the emphatic 5-1 win over Sparta Rotterdam felt like a turning point. The fact that five different players got on the scoresheet speaks volumes about their depth in attack. Twente’s creative outlets, Rots, Van Wolfswinkel, and Hlynsson – have all been involved in chance creation, and Fortuna’s defensive fragility on the road (two defeats in three away games) could be exposed. Yes, Twente haven’t kept a clean sheet this season, conceding two goals per home game, but their attacking firepower should outweigh that. Add to this their historical dominance against Fortuna in Enschede, with five straight wins before April’s draw, and the signs point toward the hosts. For punters, Twente to win looks the most reasonable call.
