Zwolle preview: Hoping for another good showing at home

With two wins in their last four games, both at home, Zwolle have managed to separate themselves a bit from the teams in the relegation zone since they're now 10 points ahead of the first team in it. That being said, with 16 points from 15 games, this has been a disappointing season for Zwolle so far.

Meanwhile, Samir Lagsir and Tristan Gooijer are out with injuries.

Predicted lineup: Schendelaar (GK), Floranus, Graves, MacNulty, Van der Haar, Van den Berg, El Azzouzi, Namli, Monteiro, Mbayo & Vente

Willem II preview: Looking for points against fellow strugglers

Just like their next opponent, Willem II also have 16 points, but they haven't been in good form recently with just one win in their last seven games. With that in mind, they really need a good result from this match, even if they are currently at a safe distance from the relegation zone.

When it comes to team news, Dani Mathieu, Niels van Berkel, Valentino Vermeulen, and Amar Fatah, and are on Willem II's injury list at the moment.

Predicted lineup: Didillon-Hodl (GK), Tirpan, Behounek, St. Jago, Sigurgeirsson, Lambert, Kehrer, Bosch, Meerveld, Vaesen & Sandra

Player to watch: Dylan Mbayo

The young Belgian winger has been in good form this season, scoring three goals and adding six assists for Zwolle in the Eredivisie. With this in mind, it's clear that he's the player to watch against Willem II as well.
