Twente confirms its good level
“The Pride of the East” even managed to become the champion of the Netherlands in 2010. The following season brought 2nd place, but the club won the national cup for the third time in its history, and also won the Super Cup. Soon, the club was caught in fraud when transferring players, and was forcibly demoted. At the same time, the team managed to challenge that decision, but it lost the so-called “registration” in 2018. It’s fortunate that there was an opportunity to come back and then make it to 5th place at the end of the previous season. The Dutch club even played in the Conference League qualifications in the summer, but, having overcome Hammarby and Riga, it met Fenerbahçe and lost both times. Focusing on the Eredivisie, Oosting’s wards are achieving good results there, although not without their downturns. Still, having beaten Go Ahead Eagles, the team took 4th place.
Excelsior is spending a decent season by its standards
“The Red and Blacks” have been around for over 120 years. Still, all their success comes down to victories in the Eerste Divisie, which is the second-highest local division of the country. At the same time, there happened 4 finishes in the last position in the elite league is a national anti-record. Generally speaking, the tasks boil down to maintaining the so-called “registration”. In this case, there was a success in the previous season, even if the team took the last “saving”, 15th place. This time, there was a really good start, with only 1 defeat in the first 8 rounds. On the other hand, it gave way to a protracted losing streak from mid-autumn. Taking into account the higher mentioned ideas, a draw in the confrontation with Waalwijk, also with a comeback from a 0-2 score, looks like a success.
