Zwolle vs Heerenveen team news
Zwolle
Zwolle come into this game after a tough run into the winter break winning one of five games, although that did include matches against PSV Eindhoven and Ajax. So, playing in front of their fans they'll be keen to kick on in 2024 and start strong.

Confirmed lineups will appear here around 60 minutes before kickoff.

Player to watch – Ferdy Druijf
Ferdy Druijf has turned out to be an inspired loan signing for Zwolle. The Dutchman has seven goal involvements to his name in the Eredivisie including five goals and two assists.
The partnership he's been able to form alongside Lennart Thy is a big reason why Zwolle find themselves in the top half of the table and not fighting in a very tough relegation battle.
Druijf and Thy are the duo that make Zwolle favourites for this clash and could easily be the difference makers.
