Monday’s football game at Van Donge & De Roo Stadion pits together Excelsior and NEC Nijmegen, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table.
Excelsior are desperate to escape the danger zone and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against Rogier Meijer’s troops.
Defender Siebe Horemans serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards, while midfielder Noah Naujoks should sneak into the starting XI after coming as a substitute in a 2-2 draw with Ajax.
The visitors, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-0 loss to AZ Alkmaar.
As the relegation-threatened hosts want this win more than the visitors, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Marinus Dijkhuizen’s charges.
In the first half of the season Excelsior recorded a thrilling 4-3 win over NEC, who will be without Borges Sanches, Bart van Rooij, Phillpe Sandler, and veteran Bas Dost in Monday’s clash.
This match will be played on 06/05/2024 at 19:00
Prediction: 2-1
Recommended Pick: Excelsior to Win.
