NAC vs Groningen H2H Stats, Lineups and Live Stream

Preview

NAC were up against Groningen in the Eredivisie of Netherlands on March 29. The match ended in a stalemate, with the final scoreline reading 1-1.

Mats Seuntjens scored the first goal of the game from the penalty spot on the 54th minute of the match, giving Groningen the lead. This was followed by a goal from Clint Leemans, setting the final scoreline at 1-1.

8 months after their last meeting in Eredivisie, a sense of anticipation builds as NAC and Groningen meet again. In their last encounter, Groningen secured a 4-1 win. Their last outing ended in a loss to Club Brugge on March 20, so NAC approach this game determined to rebound, but they remain winless over their last eight matches. Tightening up at the back might be their best chance to shift momentum, especially given the fact their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have allowed goals in four consecutive matches.

Groningen are preparing for the match after a loss against Schalke in a friendly on March 19. Their backline remains a concern, conceding goals in their last ten away matches in a row.

NAC and Groningen meet in Eredivisie with their goal-scorers and playmakers ready to take on pivotal roles. The attacking efforts of NAC, crafted under Carl Hoefkens’s leadership, have been driven by Elias Omarsson, the team’s primary goal threat, and Leo Sauer, both of whom have delivered in crucial moments. Omarsson leads NAC’s scoring charts in Eredivisie this season with seven goals, as Janosek continues to lead their creative efforts in the tournament with four assists. Jan Van Den Bergh, Clint Leemans and Boy Kemper have made their presence felt as well, chipping in with decisive contributions in attack.

Meanwhile, Groningen’s attacking options, under Dick Lukkien’s management, have been bolstered by Luciano Valente and Leandro Bacuna, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. Willumsson has emerged as Groningen’s leading scorer in Eredivisie this season, netting four goals, with Valente leading their creative tally in the league with six assists. Groningen’s attacking depth is further showcased by Jorg Schreuders, Thom Van Bergen and Stije Resink, who have each made valuable contributions this season.
