  • 33' Adil Auassar is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Sparta Rotterdam tonight.
  • 38' 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 Philippe Rommens suffering a number of foals already.

  • 79' Arno Verschueren is ready to make an impact after coming on for Younes Namli at the 79 minute mark.
