NEC remain in 17th position, four points behind a non-relegation spot with five rounds to be played.

In Spain, Masoud Shojaei grabbed yet another assist as he set up the second goal in a 3-1 away win over Murcia.

Las Palmas are now fourth in the table which would be enough to participate in the promotion playoffs, but five points behind one of the two direct promotion spots.

While Ashkan Dejagah missed Fulham’s thrashing in the hands of Manchester City due to injury, Sardar Azmoun started his second consecutive game for Rubin Kazan in Russia.
