Prediction: 2-2
Groningen
MAC³PARK Stadion will host Sunday’s Eredivisie game between Zwolle and Groningen, the two teams eyeing a spot in the Conference League playoffs. Zwolle aim to build on a 2-1 win over Willem II and they are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach against Groningen. Both Olivier Aertseen and Tristan Gooijer are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The Green and Whites, on the other hand, did well to spoil Ajax’s party in the midweek clash, with Thijmen Blokzijl scoring a late equalizer, but they face a must-win situation in the last game of the season. As both Groningen and Zwolle will adopt an attack-minded approach in Sunday’s encounter, we believe that there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. It has to be noted that midfielder Luciano Valente is banned for the visiting side following his sending-off against Ajax.
Highlighted Team (Zwolle):
Founded on June 12, 1910, PEC Zwolle is a Dutch football club which competes in the Eredivisie. Zwolle have yet to win the national championship, but they did remarkably well to lift the Dutch Cup trophy in 2014. Ron Jans’s troops impressed in the title game, with the team rolling over Dutch giants Ajax 5-1.
The Blauwingers play their home games at MACPARK Stadion, the venue with the capacity of 14,000 people. The multi-use stadium was opened on August 29, 2009. Zwolle’s home kit is blue and white, while the colour of their away jersey is green and white. In the 2014/15 season the Blauwingers represented the Netherlands in the Europa League, with the team losing to Sparta Prague in the play-off round.
The likes of Henk Timmer (237), Johan Hansma (231), Bert Konterman (219), Arne Slot (208), and Jasper Drost (182) are the players with the most league appearances for the club. Go Ahead Eagles are considered the club’s biggest rivals as both teams are located at the river Ijssel.
