We said: NEC 2-2 Fortuna Sittard

While NEC managed to bring an end to a five-match winless run last weekend against PEC Zwolle, they are now set to face a much sterner task against top-half opposition. Fortuna Sittard have only won two away games this season, but they have been tough to beat on the road, losing only once in their last six outings, and we feel they will be able to earn a share of the spoils in this one.
