Sparta Rotterdam, Recent FormSparta Rotterdam will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 1-0 win in their away outing against AZ.
Manager Maurice Steijn will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 11 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 8 goals conceded in the same period. With goals notched up in 5 of their past 6 matches, they are certainly showing some goal-scoring consistency of late. Steijn will be unhappy that his team have failed to keep a clean sheet in so many home games, having conceded in 10 of their 14 this season.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Sparta Rotterdam, Koki Saito will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
SC Heerenveen, Recent FormSC Heerenveen will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 2-1 winners in their home fixture against FC Volendam.
Their boss Kees van Wonderen is sure to be taking a close look at his defence, who have given away 13 goals over the last 6 matches and yet amazingly still managed to collect some valuable points during this poor defensive spell due to their 11 goals scored. Scoring goals away from home is something they have consistently achieved of late, having notched up goals in 4 of their last 6 matches on their travels. Having failed to record a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches, they definitely have some defensive problems to resolve at the moment.
It's been a mixed run of away form for Heerenveen recently, with 2 wins and 2 defeats in their last 6 games on the road.
On an individual basis, Sydney van Hooijdonk is showing great form in front of goal having scored 7 goals in SC Heerenveen's last 6 league games
The previous meeting between these two sides was not one to live long in the memory; that match finished without a goal, and both teams settling for a point apiece.
Playing at home, Sparta have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Heerenveen.
The last 3 league meetings between these teams has ended with a share of the spoils but Heerenveen will be slighlty more concerned that they have not won this fixture in 4 games.
There is only really one injury concern for the Sparta manager Maurice Steijn ahead of this clash, with Jonathan de Guzmán (Ankle) missing out, which gives Steijn a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Kees van Wonderen has a number of injury concerns in his Heerenveen squad to contend with: Andries Noppert (Hip), Joost van Aken (Unknown) and Sven van Beek (Achilles tendon)
