Tadic faces Willem II in Eredivisie clash
Dusan Tadic arrives at the Koning Willem II Stadion with NEC Nijmegen for their second Eredivisie matchday fixture against Willem II. Tadic, a notable presence in the NEC attack, will be looking to make an impact as his side seeks to build on their early season results.
Willem II are expected to field a side featuring Uriel van Aalst and Devin Haen in attacking roles, supported by midfielders Kasper Boogaard and Per van Loon. The defence is likely to be marshalled by Alessandro Ciranni, Justin Hoogma, Finn Stam, and Nathan Tjoe-A-On. However, the team will be without Thomas Didillon due to injury, a significant absence in their squad.
NEC Nijmegen's predicted lineup sees Dusan Tadic spearheading the attack, with Noe Lebreton, Tjaronn Chery, Clement Bischoff, Isak Hansen-Aaroeen, Jamiro Monteiro, Darko Nejasmic, and Sami Ouaissa forming a strong midfield contingent. The defensive unit is expected to comprise Deveron Fonville and Brayann Pereira, with Gonzalo Crettaz in goal.
Willem II began their Eredivisie campaign with a 4-1 defeat away to Go Ahead Eagles. Prior to this, their pre-season friendlies showed mixed results, including a 2-1 win against OFI Crete and a 1-0 victory over KV Mechelen, alongside a 2-2 draw with FC Eindhoven.
NEC Nijmegen also started their league season with a loss, going down 1-2 at home to Telstar. Their recent European fixtures saw them draw 0-0 with Olympiacos before securing a 2-1 victory in the return leg of their Champions League qualification tie. Their friendly matches have also yielded varied outcomes, including a 7-0 thrashing of Al-Fayha.
The head-to-head record between Willem II and NEC Nijmegen shows a relatively even contest in recent Eredivisie meetings. In their last encounter on 3 May 2025, the match ended in a 1-1 draw. The previous season, Willem II secured a dominant 4-1 home win over NEC Nijmegen on 22 December 2024, though NEC had won the away fixture 1-0 earlier in 2021.
