Double chance : PEC Zwolle or draw

PEC Zwolle comes into this match on a run of draws, having shared the points in their last three games. They are finding it hard to get a win but are also proving difficult to beat. Groningen, on the other hand, has been struggling lately, losing their last three matches in a row.

Looking at their recent meetings, these two teams often play close games. Their last match ended in a high-scoring draw, and historically, draws have been a very common result when they face each other. Given both teams' current form and their history, this looks set to be another very close match that is likely to end in a draw.
