A week before today's match against the Werkself, the last game ahead of the start of the Eredivisie, Fortuna Sittard played Bundesliga 2 club SV Elversberg. In the closing third of the game, the Dutch side turn round a 2-0 deficit to win 3-2 with the winner coming late on. Two goals were scored by Paul Gladon who moved to Limburg last summer after a period out of contract. And the former Köln player Dimitrios Limnios came in before the start of the season.
Daley Sinkgraven joined Fortuna Sittard in February this year. The long-standing Werkself player (2019 to 2023) returned to his home country after 18 months at the Spanish club UD Las Palmas. The currently injured full-back played for Ajax from December 2017 to June 2019 under Erik ten Hag who recommended his move to Bayer 04 at the time.
Around 400 fans are making their way to Sittard to support the Werkself at the ground. Tickets are available up to kick-off online at the Fortuna Sittard web shop as well as from the matchday ticket office (south stand).

Bayer 04 put in a brilliant performance to beat RB Leipzig 4-1 on Bundesliga matchday 32 and are now fourth in a Champions League spot. The Black and Reds took control of the game right from the start and, with 75 per cent possession at one stage, took a 2-0 lead into the break through Patrik Schick (25’) and Nathan Tella (45+1’). The visitors initially tried to do more after the break, but the Werkself remained determined and Schick scored his second goal to increase the lead to 3-0 (76'). The Red Bulls pulled a goal back through Christoph Baumgartner (80'), but the disciplined Leverkusen side were not rattled - and certainly not Schick: The Czechia international crowned a brilliant display with his third goal shortly before the final whistle to make the final score 4-1.

In the previous game against RB Leipzig in December last year, the Werkself turned came from behind to win 3-1 and further improved Leverkusen's already strong record against the Red Bulls. Montrell Culbreath stood out with his first goal on his debut for the Black and Reds. While the 18-year-old would certainly like to score a second goal against Leipzig on Saturday night, the attack-minded visitors come to the BayArena in confident mood after five Bundesliga victories in a row. The Nordkurve12 supporters group knows the Werkself will therefore once again be reliant on the vociferous support of the fans, and has once again called for the ‘Finally Red’ campaign in the run-in.
