Vitesse vs Groningen: Team News, Line-Ups, & Form Analysis

Vitesse:

Vitesse Arnhem will be looking for a solid performance against Groningen, who have already been relegated. When it comes to home matches, Vitesse Arnhem have been quite decent with only six defeats. At the same time, manager Phillip Cocu will be keen on improving that win ratio. The Vitesse vs Groningen lineups may feature some experimentation from the home team with Davy Pröpper out injured and Carlens Arcus unavailable due to suspension.

Predicted Line-Up:

Kjell Scherpen, Alois Dominik Oroz, Ryan Flamingo, Nicolas Isimat-Mirin, Maximilian Wittek, Melle Meulensteen, Marco van Ginkel, Matus Bero, Million Manhoef, Bartosz Bialek, Kacper Kozlowsk

Groningen:

Groningen are heading into the match looking forward to the penultimate league match of the campaign. The club have already been relegated and it is about pride for Dennis van der Ree and his team in the last two matches. Michael Verrips, Liam van Gelderen, Jetro Willems, and Paulos Abraham are doubtful for the game. Damil Dankerlui and Luciano Valente are certainly ruled out.

Predicted Line-Up:

Peter Leeuwenburgh, Jorg Schreuders, Radinio Balker, Mads Bech Sörensen, Nordin Musampa, Tomas Suslov, Laros Duarte, Oliver Antman, Johan Hove, I. Dybvik Maatta, Ricardo Pepi

Player to Watch: Melle Meulensteen

Melle Meulensteen has been one of the steady performers for Vitesse Arnhem in the centre of the park. The midfielder has been able to come up with almost 1.5 tackles per game and he has been also very good at making interceptions. Groningen are already struggling in terms of away performances and they may struggle against an opponent like Melle Meulensteen.
