Nijstad is particularly looking forward to the duels with Ajax striker Tolu Arokodare, who has been in impressive form, scoring twice against FC Midtjylland on Thursday. According to Nijstad, Arokodare's strength lies in his ability to create chances in the box.
Nijstad has a similar challenge ahead of him, having faced Ajax last season when he was outdone by Wout Weghorst, who is now a teammate. The young defender has reflected on that experience, saying it has helped him improve.
Twente can climb to second place in the Eredivisie with a win, and Nijstad is confident that his team can make it happen.
