PEC Zwolle, Recent FormPEC Zwolle will have been reasonably pleased with their 2-2 draw against NEC Nijmegen, not least because of the valuable point gained. They achieved 42% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against NEC Nijmegen's tally of 17 efforts at goal, 9 of which were on target.
Manager Johnny Jansen will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 15 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 8 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 10 games overall.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Ferdy Druijf will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for PEC Zwolle.
Heracles Almelo, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 2-0 home defeat by SC Heerenveen will have left the Heracles Almelo squad feeling a little deflated. Their share of possession in that meeting was 50%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target. SC Heerenveen had 20 shots on goal with 7 on target.
Manager Erwin van de Looi will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 9 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 7 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. Of their 15 games played away from home this season, they have failed to score in 7 and have conceded one or more goals on 14 occasions.
They've had a dismal run of form on their travels recently, losing all but 1 of their last 6 away games, a solitary win providing little consolation.
In front of goal, Nikolai Laursen has shown an impressive run of form over the last 6 league matches, managing to find the back of the net no less than 6 times in that run of games.
When these two teams last met in the league it was a 2-1 win for Heracles Almelo.
