- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Syb Van Ottele made 171 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 10' Fortuna Sittard started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
- 15' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with Fortuna Sittard winning 50% of all matches.
- 20' It looks like no one’s ball. Fortuna Sittard is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 25' Yassin Oukili needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 30' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 30 minutes.
- 35' Fortuna Sittard looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker scoring 0 goals.
- 40' What a strike from Dani de Wit! The score is 1-0.
- 45' Fortuna Sittard is showing some good football. However, Fortuna Sittard are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.

- 70' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 75' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Philip Brittijn suffering a number of foals already.
- 80' Vassilis Barkas has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 42 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 85' The travelling Fortuna Sittard supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
