Match Stats

Excelsior's recent resurgence in form has been a highlight, with impressive victories including 4-0 triumphs over FC Volendam and Heracles, along with a commendable 2-2 draw against Ajax. However, their hopes of automatic survival were dashed after a disappointing 4-0 defeat to Feyenoord, leaving them reliant on the playoffs to secure their Eredivisie status.

Manager Marinus Dijkhuizen will be keen to ensure that the loss to Feyenoord doesn't affect his team's morale as they prepare to face ADO Den Haag. Meanwhile, despite finishing fifth in the Eerste Divisie, ADO Den Haag's form towards the end of the regular season was less convincing, with only two wins in their last 10 games.

Nevertheless, ADO Den Haag showed resilience in the quarter-finals, overcoming De Graafschap in a thrilling encounter with a narrow aggregate victory. However, their late concession of goals in the second leg raises questions about their defensive stability heading into the semi-finals. Both teams will be eager to seize the opportunity to secure Eredivisie football next season, but their recent performances and mindset will play a crucial role in determining their success.
