Fortuna Sittard, Recent FormIt's fair to say Fortuna Sittard will have been relatively pleased with a point from their last encounter with Ajax, a match that ended in a 2-2 draw. They achieved 28% possession in that match and had 9 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Ajax's tally of 17 efforts at goal, 7 of which were on target.
Whilst manager Danny Buijs will be pleased with his team's performance in front of goal, having scored 12 goals in their last 6 games, he will want to tighten up his defence if they are to pick up more points, with 13 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
It's been a mixed run of form for Fortuna recently with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 defeats in their last 6 games.
Kaj Sierhuis will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 5 goals in the last 6 league outings for Fortuna Sittard.
PEC Zwolle, Recent FormPEC Zwolle were forced to settle for a share of the points in their last league match, which wound up a 1-1 draw against FC Volendam. They came away from that fixture with a 66% share of the possession and clocked up 23 attempts on goal with 10 on target, in comparison to FC Volendam, who managed 10 attempts on goal, 4 of which were on target.
Supremo Johnny Jansen will be closely scrutinising his squad's defensive frailties, his back line having shipped 12 goals in their last 6 matches, despite having picked up some points through the 5 goals they've managed to net. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 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.
With 5 goals scored in his last 6 away games for PEC Zwolle, Lennart Thy will be looking to add more goals against Fortuna Sittard in this match.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was PEC Zwolle that came out on top with a 2-0 win.
During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league, Fortuna have been unable to break through Blauwvingers' defence and find the back of the net. Blauwvingers have found the back of the net in each of their previous 3 league matches away from home to Fortuna.
PEC Zwolle has won the last 2 games they've played against Fortuna in the league.
There is only really one injury concern for the Fortuna manager Danny Buijs ahead of this clash, with Arianit Ferati (Unknown) missing out, which gives Buijs a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
The injury list is starting to mount up for PEC Zwolle manager Johnny Jansen with Zico Buurmeester (Unknown), Kaj de Rooij (Knee), Nick Fichtinger (Leg), Samir Lagsir (Knee), Younes Namli (Unknown) and Ryan Thomas (Knee) all unavailable for selection, and Ferdy Druijf (Knee) out for the rest of the season.
