Vitesse, Recent FormThe Vitesse squad will want to put the 5-1 away thrashing they received from Go Ahead Eagles firmly behind them and may also need to find something to boost their confidence levels as a consequence.
Their boss Phillip Cocu is sure to be taking a close look at his defence, who have given away 12 goals over the last 6 matches and yet amazingly still managed to collect some valuable points during this poor defensive spell due to their 5 goals scored. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, and this season they have failed to score in 6 of their 11 games.
They've drawn their last 2 league games at GelreDome, but their search for a home win in the league extends even further having gone 5 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
SC Heerenveen, Recent FormOn the back of a tough 4-1 away defeat by Ajax, SC Heerenveen manager Kees van Wonderen will have some work to do to get his team in a confident mindset.
He will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 12 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 5 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have not be performing well away from home with 5 straight defeats on the road.
On an individual basis, Luuk Brouwers will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in SC Heerenveen's last 6 league games.
The last league encounter between these two sides concluded with a 1-3 win for Vitesse.
Goals should be on the cards for De Superfriezen in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against Vitesse in their last 11 meetings together. Heerenveen have a good attacking record away to Vites in the league, having scored a total of 7 goals in their last 3 visits, which gives an average of 2.33 goals per game.
In the league, Heerenveen has a good track record when they travel to Vitesse, getting the better of them to win their last 2 games.
Vitesse manager Phillip Cocu has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Thomas Buitink (Cruciate ligament), Fodé Fofana (Knee), Miliano Jonathans (Knee), Davy Pröpper (Knee) and Marco van Ginkel (Hamstring) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Ion Nicolăescu (Unknown) and Osame Sahraoui (Unknown) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Kees van Wonderen will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
