Zwolle take on Groningen in the Eredivisie of Netherlands on May 18. Kickoff is scheduled for 12:30 UTC.
The stage is set for another captivating encounter as Zwolle and Groningen renew their battle, 5 months after the previous Eredivisie match that concluded in a 0-0 stalemate. Zwolle come into this match following a defeat to Feyenoord last Friday, looking to bounce back with a stronger performance, while still searching for their first win in four matches. They have a challenging set of fixtures leading up to the match against Groningen though, including Willem II, Go Ahead Eagles and NAC in Eredivisie, and the outcomes of these games may heavily influence their preparations for Groningen. Improving their defensive organization could unlock stronger results, given that their backline remains a concern, with goals conceded across three consecutive matches.
Following a win over Heracles Almelo, Groningen, by contrast, head into this match looking to build on their success. Though notably, their backline has lacked consistency, with goals conceded across ten consecutive away matches. Groningen have a challenging set of fixtures leading up to the match against Zwolle though, including Ajax, AZ and RKC in Eredivisie, fixtures that are likely to influence their form and fitness ahead of their clash with Zwolle.
This Eredivisie clash shines a light on the players who have played crucial roles in creating and converting chances for Zwolle and Groningen in this campaign. Zwolle’s attacking options, under Johnny Jansen’s management, have been bolstered by Dylan Vente, the team’s top scorer, and Dylan Mbayo, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. Vente has emerged as Zwolle’s leading scorer in Eredivisie this season, netting thirteen goals, with Mbayo leading their creative tally in the league with seven assists. Supporting them are Filip Krastev, Dave Van Den Berg and Damian van der Haar, who have also chipped in with important goals and assists, adding depth to Zwolle’s attack.
Meanwhile, Groningen’s Luciano Valente and Leandro Bacuna have played important roles in ensuring their attack, with Dick Lukkien at the helm, remains effective. Schreuders leads Groningen’s scoring charts in Eredivisie this season with five goals, with Valente contributing five assists to top their creative tally in the league. Groningen have also relied on Thom Van Bergen, Brynjolfur Andersen Willumsson and Stije Resink to energize their attack through key shots and passes.
