Nijmegen lost 1-0 to Heerenveen in their last game, extending their winless run to three in their previous four games. They have managed two wins in their 11 games but remain unbeaten at home in six of their last seven games. NEC sit 13th on the table with 33 points in 30 games, scoring 42 goals and conceding 44. They are nine points off the relegation zone with 12 points left to battle for in the season. Although they appear free from relegation, they will need to win this game to confirm their safety, regardless of dramas from the season's remaining games. They will still face Ajax, NAC Breda, and Heracles in their remaining games of the season.

Willem II: form and statistics
Willem II will continue their battle against relegation, but I doubt they can escape relegation based on how things are going. They suffered a 1-0 loss to Sittard in their last game and have now lost eight straight games. They are without a win in 2025, with their last win coming against their hosts in December 2024. Super Pitchers sit 16th on the table with 24 points in 30 games, scoring 30 goals and conceding 50. They can still escape the relegation playoffs with 12 points left to play for in the season. If they can get a win in their remaining games of the season, they stand a chance of survival if other games in the league work in their favour.
Willem II: Lineup
Peter Maes will continue with his 4-2-3-1 formation in this game, with Thomas Didillon continuing his role in goal and Jeremy Bokila leading from the front. However, due to injuries, Dani Mathieu and Mickael Tirpan are out of this game.
🔖 Willem II possible starting lineup (4-2-3-1)
Goalkeeper – Thomas Didillon
Defenders – Tommy St. Jago, Raffael Behounek, Erik Schouten, Rob Nizet
Midfielders – Amine Lachkar, Jesse Bosch, Emilio Kehrer, Ringo Meerveld, Nick Doodeman
Attackers — Jeremy Bokila
⛔️ Out: Dani Mathieu (knee injury), Mickael Tirpan (illness).

NEC Nijmegen vs Willem II match prediction 03 May 2025
Willem II have been performing poorly recently. They have not won this year and will likely fight in the playoffs to avoid relegation. However, the hosts are unbeaten in six of their last seven games at home, and their performance against Willem II have been superb, having remained unbeaten in 14 of their last 15 games against them. However, the defense of both sides hasn’t been at their best, and I expect them to concede.
