FC Twente and Vitesse have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the Eredivisie.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
