Rat Verlegh Stadion will host Tuesday’s relegation playoff game between NAC Breda and FC Emmen. Breda finished the regular season in style, with the team rolling over Roda 5-0 on the road and, as a result, the bookies see them as favourites to win the first leg. Both Clint Leemans and Javier Vet are sidelined with injuries, while both Martins and Staring are banned for the match.

The visitors, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Dordrecht, but seeing that Breda are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we are tempted to put our money on Jean-Paul Van Gastel’s troops. In their last meeting in the Dutch second tier Breda defeated Emmen 3-2, which goes in favour of our earlier prediction. Both Schouten and Mpindi Landu are sidelined with injuries for the visiting team.
