ADO Den Haag v Fortuna Sittard: qualification play-off push meets early survival fight | OneFootball

ADO Den Haag host Fortuna Sittard in the Eredivisie on Sunday, 6 September 2026 in Den Haag, with the visitors chasing the qualification play-offs and the hosts trying to climb out of the relegation play-off place.

Fortuna Sittard are seventh on seven points, while ADO Den Haag sit 16th with one. The recent head to head leans towards the visitors, who won 3-0 in Den Haag in April 2021.

ADO Den Haag ended a three-game losing start with a 2-2 draw at Feyenoord last time out. Fortuna Sittard opened with a draw at PSV, beat Cambuur, lost to leaders AZ, then won 3-2 at Groningen to keep momentum.

Cameron Peupion is out for ADO Den Haag. Fortuna Sittard list Kristoffer Peterson, Ivan Marquez, Rodrigo Guth, Siebe Wylin and Sven Simons as injured, while Ole Romeny is suspended. Those defensive absences may test Danny Buijs' options at the back.

ADO Den Haag have conceded 11 goals in four games and are yet to keep a clean sheet, so keeping shape against a direct Fortuna Sittard side could be decisive. The visitors have scored eight with 31% possession and a 68.97% shooting accuracy, with Lequincio Zeefuik (two league goals) and creator Edouard Michut (two assists) prominent. ADO Den Haag's 41 open-play crosses suggest the hosts may look wide for a route to goal.

A win would move ADO Den Haag to four points and could pull them towards safety. Three points would take Fortuna Sittard to 10 and could nudge them further into the qualification play-off picture.
