Groningen’s attacking options, shaped by Dick Lukkien’s vision, have been bolstered by Luciano Valente and Leandro Bacuna, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. Groningen’s top scorer in Eredivisie, Schreuders, has five goals this season, with Valente leading their creative tally in the league with five assists. Groningen’s offense has also been strengthened by Thom Van Bergen, Brynjolfur Andersen Willumsson and Stije Resink, who have provided crucial contributions in the final third.

Meanwhile, RKC’s Richonell Margaret and top finisher Oskar Zawada have played important roles in ensuring their attack, under Henk Fraser’s guidance, remains effective. Zawada leads RKC’s scoring charts in Eredivisie this season with nine goals, as Margaret continues to lead their creative efforts in the tournament with six assists.
