Saturday FC Groningen played for the seventh time equal in only ten games time. The Groningen have the ninth spot on the eye, but draws do not shoot that. Wednesday, the home team wants to take the win against NEC, which not stabbing in good shape. Points NEC can use good, because the margin of the relegation zone just three points.
Groningen :
FC Groningen has to ask whether ten matches without victory. The Groningen had much confidence prior to the season in which they could make under Ernest Faber final step into the second tier. Participation in the playoffs for European football was the least to be achieved. The Groningen hoped that the team is this season could measure to AZ and FC Utrecht in the battle to be ‘best of the rest’. It all turned out differently this season and after the winter is still not improved. The number of defeats is diminished, but to really get on the list matches must be won. Precisely because the northerners have much difficulty.
Similarly, last Saturday to visit AZ. FC Groningen have indeed reached a point, but could itself create little bar. That game ended scoreless, Faber might be happy, because AZ had more than enough chances to score. The best opportunity came in Groningen side of Ruben Jenssen, but putting in place of the ball, he shot over. Faber kept himself there afterwards to note that the penny once striking the right direction. “It will happen again, tonight we should go to the casino. We received two hundred percent capabilities, which should really there. But the game that’s going to happen, is getting closer. ”
The fact that striker Tom van Weert for weeks been injured, the Groningen is hard. Now, almost all the threat of Mimoun Mahi and Jenssen, but both are not pure scorers. One advantage is that Bryan Linssen Wednesday returns from suspension. This is probably at the expense of Alexander Sørloth that lately anyway no pots can break into the point of attack.
Probable lineup FC Groningen
Padt; Hiariej, Reijnen, Memisevic, Davidson; Drost Bacuna, Jenssen, Tibbling; Mahi, Linssen
Nijmegen :
It’s in the second half of the season in the wrong direction with NEC. A win over archrival Vitesse Sunday would have to destroy, but rather a victory, the Nijmegen team went 2-1. The derby is the media hyping and is important for both groups of fans, but the players were there any message in the first half of. For rest was dull and were rushed to a handful. Vitesse ignited the game in the second half to take the lead. Fifteen minutes later, NEC came back into the game through substitute Ferdi Kadioglu. The visitors could not pass through. Vitesse was just looking for the victory and found it thus.
Peter Hyballa was realistic afterwards. “The loss is earned. Vitesse had more possession and created more chances. But I have to think about their own abilities. It was exciting, is also on us. It was a good tactical decision to play 5-3-2. Frank Sturing can look back on a good debut, “said the trainer, who regretted that the weather went wrong in the closing stages. “This process is then very good, but the points really bad. We must not cry alone, but look ahead. Wednesday waiting FC Groningen. It recover and pop to the next game. ”
NEC had back problems for Vitesse, but which have now become even greater. Wojciech Golla picked up his fifth yellow card of the season and is thus suspended, while Mikael Dyrestam and Robin Buwalda are injured. Since NEC Sunday with five defenders played, it is obvious that Hyballa harks back to 4-3-3, even though the coach was well pleased with the tactical implementation. Control then takes the position Golla. It remains to be seen who will play in attack. Presumably come Kadioglu and Mohammed Rayhi there next to Jay Roy Cave, which Arnaut Groeneveld sits on the bench.
Probable lineup NEC Nijmegen
Delle; Heinloth, control, Dumic, Burnet; Bikel, Von Haacke, Breinburg; Rayhi, Cave, Kadioglu
