FC Twente, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the FC Twente players having failed to take any points away from their recent 1-0 away defeat at the hands of PSV. Their share of possession in that meeting was 37%, while racking up 11 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target, in contrast to PSV, who had 17 shots on goal with 5 on target.
Manager Joseph Oosting will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 2 clean sheets in those games.
They have had an excellent run of form at De Grolsch Veste recently, winning 5 out of their last 6 home games.
On an individual basis, Ricky van Wolfswinkel will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in FC Twente's last 6 league games.
Heracles Almelo, Recent FormHeracles Almelo will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-0 home win against Go Ahead Eagles. In that game they had 45% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Go Ahead Eagles who had 18 attempts and 4 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 7 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 10, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, and playing away from home, they have failed to score in 6 of their 13 games this season.
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.
Having scored 6 goals in his last 6 league games for Heracles Almelo, Nikolai Laursen will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
In the previous encounter between these sides, both teams grabbed goals, with the match finishing in a 2-2 draw.
Twente have scored in each of their last 16 games at home in the league against Heraclieden.
This fixture has produced a draw on the last 2 occasions that these 2 sides have met in the league, but Twente hold a slight psychological advantage of being unbeaten in their last 5 meetings.
Twente manager Joseph Oosting has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Carel Eiting (Unknown), Mees Hilgers (Unknown) and Mathias Kjølø (Unknown) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Erwin van de Looi has a number of injury concerns in his Heracles squad to contend with: Sava-Arangel Čestić (Broken ankle), Nikolai Laursen (Knee), Diego van Oorschot (Broken leg) and Jannes Wieckhoff (Unknown)
