NEC Nijmegen vs ADO Den Haag – 20 December 2026, Eredivisie: H2H, form and match facts

NEC Nijmegen host a struggling ADO Den Haag in what promises to be a decisive clash in the lower half of the table. Sitting tenth with seven points from six games – two wins, a draw and three defeats – the home side have scored 11 but conceded 12, leaving them just above the relegation zone. ADO, languishing in eighteenth place, have managed only a single point after a draw and five losses, with a goal deficit of ten, having netted six and let in sixteen. The disparity in form and firepower makes the fixture a crucial opportunity for NEC to consolidate a mid‑table push, while Den Haag will be desperate to snap their winless run and climb out of the bottom. A victory for the hosts would widen the gap at the bottom, whereas an upset could spark a late‑season resurgence for the visitors.
