Zwolle and Groningen will battle it out at Mac³Park Stadion during the 34th round of the Eredivisie. In their last meeting on 08‑12‑2024, the two teams ended in a stalemate (0‑0). Historically, the home side has enjoyed an advantage at this ground, with their last three encounters yielding one win and two draws. However, in the most recent match here for a friendly on 05‑08-2023, they again ended level at (0‑0). The home advantage could play a crucial role, given Groningen’s inconsistent performances away from home compared to their displays on familiar territory.

Team analysis: Zwolle

After 9 wins, 11 draws, and 13 losses, Zwolle finds itself in 13th place with 38 points. Their last match saw a victory against Willem II (1‑2), following a previous draw at home against Go Ahead Eagles (1‑1). The team shows consistent performance when playing away, as demonstrated by their last 30 outings, where they achieved 3 wins, 7 draws, and 5 losses; at home, they recorded 6 wins, 4 draws, and 5 losses. In the league, Zwolle has collected 13 points from the last 30 available, boasting 3 wins, 4 draws, and 3 losses at home. A common outcome at the break in their home fixtures has been 0‑0, occurring in 7 of their 16 league matches. Defensively, they have not been particularly solid, conceding in 9 of their last 10 games, but they have managed to score in 8 of those matches. Notably, in 33 games, they conceded the first goal 16 times and have only turned the score around once. There is one significant detail in their last 16 home league matches: they conceded 8 of their 20 goals during the (46’–60′) minute window.

Although Zwolle holds slim chances of reaching the Conference League playoffs, their path relies heavily on securing victory alongside a favourable array of results. Nonetheless, they are expected to adopt an offensive strategy, aiming to dominate the match in front of their supporters. They have displayed competitiveness in high-stakes games, which could serve as an asset during this concluding round. An intense match is anticipated, with Zwolle utilising speed and quick transitions. Despite the challenges ahead, their ambition to advance could keep their focus sharp.

Team analysis: Groningen

The visiting side, Groningen, currently occupies 12th place with 39 points accrued from 10 wins, 9 draws, and 14 losses. In the penultimate fixture, they faced a defeat away at AZ (3‑0), and their most recent encounter resulted in a home draw against Ajax (2‑2). This is a team that struggles outside their home territory, recording only 1 win, 3 draws, and 11 losses in the last 30 games away, with a total of 11 goals scored and 36 conceded. Conversely, at home, they achieved 7 victories, 5 draws, and 3 losses, scoring 21 goals while conceding only 11. In the league, Groningen has managed to secure just 5 points out of the last 30 available, with their last 10 away games yielding only 1 win, 2 draws, and 7 losses. Their defensive frailty has allowed the opposition to score in 9 of their previous 10 encounters, indicating a lack of solidity at the back, despite their attack registering goals in 9 matches in the same period. In 33 league matches, they conceded the first goal 17 times and have failed to overturn those deficits.

Groningen approaches this match with similar ambitions and challenges, also needing a win and hoping for favourable outcomes elsewhere. The squad has shown improvement in recent fixtures, demonstrating belief in their ability to cause an upset away from home. Their intentions will likely be to adopt an offensive approach from the outset, seeking to control the match and gain an early advantage. With quality players available, they possess the capacity to dictate the pace, promising an intriguing contest. In this direct encounter for potential European aspirations, Groningen will be determined not to make things easy for their opponents.
