NEC Nijmegen are heading into this match in poor form. They haven't won any of their last five games, with three draws and two losses. Their most recent results have been tight, low-scoring affairs, but they just can't seem to get over the line. Groningen, on the other hand, have been a bit more up and down. They've won two of their last five, but also lost three, so they can be unpredictable.

Looking at recent meetings between these two, it's been bad news for NEC. Groningen have won the last four head-to-head matches, with three of those games seeing at least two goals scored. The most recent clash ended 2-1 to Groningen. Given NEC's current struggles and Groningen's recent dominance in this fixture, the visitors are in a strong position to get the win here.
