Off the back of contrasting results last time out, Go Ahead Eagles and FC Volendam square up against each other at De Adelaarshorst on Sunday afternoon.
Having suffered a narrow defeat in the reverse fixture earlier this season which ended in a 3-2 thriller, the away side will be looking to exact revenge on their hosts this weekend.
Match preview
Go Ahead Eagles saw their three-game unbeaten run come to an end in a comprehensive defeat against newly-crowned champions Feyenoord at De Kuip on Sunday.
Goals from Oussama Idrissi and Santiago Gimenez left Rene Hake's men with a mountain to climb at half time, after which Igor Paixao put the result to bed nine minutes into the second period.
Consequently, the pride of the IJssel Kowet remain 11th in the Eredivisie table, five points behind Heerenveen in the race for the final European place.
On the horizon next is the task of facing off against an opposing outfit who have only come out on top in one of the last seven meetings between the teams.
Unbeaten in each of their last most recent six outings on home turf, Sunday's hosts set out to put on a show in front of their fans for the final time this season.
FC Volendam made it back-to-back home victories by narrowly beating Sparta Rotterdam 2-1 in Saturday's encounter involving the sides at the Kras Stadion.
After going behind to Koki Saito's early opener, Wim Jonk's men restored parity through Xavier Mbuyamba, who grabbed his second of the game in its final knockings to settle matters.
Having picked up 33 points from 32 games this term, Het Andere Oranje sit 14th in the standings, five points clear of relegation danger heading into the penultimate matchday of the campaign.
Currently with the second-worst away defensive record in the entire division, Sunday's visitors will be eager to put on a better showing on the road this time and secure what would be only a first win in 10 matches.
Team News
Gerrit Nauber is currently down with a hip problem and will not feature for Go Ahead Eagles, while Finn Stokkers is set to miss a third straight game through a muscle problem.
Dutch duo Evert Linthorst and Jahnoah Markelo also miss out for the hosts through injury, although the former is drawing increasingly closer to a return to action.
Having found the back of the net in each of his last two home appearances, 24-year-old Willum Thor Willumsson is certainly one to keep an eye on here.
Walid Ould Chikh was forced off with an injury scare less than half an hour into Volendam's victory over Sparta Rotterdam, making the midfielder a doubt for this weekend.
This could see Henk Veerman make an immediate return to the visitors' starting XI after having to make do with a place on the bench last time out.

De Lange; Kuipers, Idzes, Amofa, Deijl; Rommens, Blomme; Edvardsen, Willumsson, Adekanye; Lidberg

We say: Go Ahead Eagles 2-1 FC Volendam
Having conceded a combined 120 goals between themselves this term, neither Go Ahead Eagles nor Volendam will fancy their chances of recording a shut-out here. We anticipate an exciting and end-to-end clash with the hosts just about managing to secure the three points at the end of the 90 minutes.
