Excelsior come into the match following a draw against Telstar last Saturday in the Eredivisie. They have several key matches to navigate before facing Groningen though, including NAC, Ajax and Heracles Almelo in Eredivisie, games that could impact their momentum heading into the match against Groningen.

Excelsior’s attacking options have been bolstered by Gyan de Regt, the team’s top scorer, and Derensili Sanches Fernandes, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. de Regt leads Excelsior’s scoring charts in Eredivisie this season with two goals, and has also shown his creativity, leading the team with one assist this campaign. Adding further support are Szymon Wlodarczyk, Irakli Yegoian and Arthur Zagre, who have combined to deliver key goals and assists for the team.

Meanwhile, Groningen’s offensive unit has leaned on Brynjolfur Andersen Willumsson, their main scorer, and Younes Taha, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. Willumsson has already scored five goals in Eredivisie this season, with Resink topping their assist tally in the competition with four.
