Season ticket holders at Fortuna Sittard Stadion haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Fortuna Sittard languishing in the 18th position so far. The guesting PEC Zwolle will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
This stadium uses grass, unlike PEC Zwolle's home stadium. The visitors last 34 games on grass have ended in 8 wins, 6 draws and 20 losses.
Fortuna Sittard form and stats
Fortuna Sittard have played three Eredivisie home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 1 point from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.
No payout for Fortuna Sittard in their previous match, an away game at Ajax that ended in defeat 2-5. In the preceding match a 2-0 victory visiting Roda JC Kerkrade.
A goal frenzy last time out for Fortuna, with a total of 7 goals in the match against Ajax. Fun stuff to watch!
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Fortuna have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found six matches with the results: Won three, drawn three and lost zero.
The Fortuna fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 5 goals in 3 league matches. Defensively there's plenty of potential for improvement as Fortuna Sittard have allowed the opposition to score 9 goals here at Fortuna Stadion. Fortuna's defense is seriously deficient as 9 goals have been conceded in these matches.
PEC Zwolle form and stats
Still no away game victory in the Eredivisie for PEC Zwolle with 2 draws and 1 loss from their first 3 attempts.
Zwolle lost away at FC Twente (1-5) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Ahead of that game was the 0-0 draw at home against Willem II.
Zwolle lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 1-5 beating and focus on this one.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Zwolle playing away and similar expectations, we found three relevant matches. Results were two PEC Zwolle wins, zero draws and one defeat.
Zwolle are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 3 away goals from 3 games (in the league). For Zwolle, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: two wins for Fortuna, two draws and six wins for PEC Zwolle. Over 2,5 goals: six times; under 2,5 goals: four games.Top Goalscorers
