- PEC Zwolle have the fewest scored goals (2) in Eredivisie
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting PEC Zwolle have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 4-6-23 (win-draw-loss) from 33 matches.
PSV form and stats
PSV have played 4 Eredivisie games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-0-1 (wins-draws-losses).
The PSV supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Sparta Rotterdam in Eredivisie and win 2-1. Manager R. Schmidt felt very clever after Ryan Thomas scored the winning goal against Sparta Rotterdam, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 61st minute. Midfielder Ibrahim Sangaré was the best player on the team with a rating of 8.85 (out of ten) in that game. Sangaré scored one goal, hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times and had 86 successful passes (of 101 total).
Before that match, a Europa League win away at Sturm Graz.Goals are plentiful at Philips Stadion in the league this season as PSV has scored 11 goals here in 4 home games. PSV are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (8 from 4 played).
PEC Zwolle form and stats
PEC Zwolle are still without points from their Eredivisie away games. 4 games, 4 defeats. It's all red in the travel logs of Zwolle, having lost four matches in a row as the visiting team.
Zwolle might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. SC Heerenveen proved too strong as PEC Zwolle slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at MAC³PARK Stadion. Bram Van Polen was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.15. The defender Polen won 3 of 7 duels.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against FC Utrecht wasn't a success with a 1-5 loss.The home team is given a winning chance of about 80 percent by the betting public. This does not leave much hope for the visitors, but some teams enjoy the outsider role and perform well in it. Looking at similar away games for PEC Zwolle we find four games. Results are zero Zwolle wins, one draw and three defeats.
