Telstar

Telstar team overview

Telstar face their first home fixture of the season after slipping to a 2:0 defeat against last season's Eredivisie runners-up Ajax. Despite a spirited performance, Anthony Correia's side left Amsterdam empty-handed. 

Competing in the Dutch top flight for the first-time in their history, Telstar secured Eredivisie promotion through the playoffs after seventh-placed finish in the Erste Divisie. 

Recent fixtures involving the home side have been low-scoring, with six of their last eight competitive matches finishing with under 2.5 goals scored.

Head coach Correia is unlikely to make too many changes to the side that slipped to defeat at Ajax. The home side have no reported injury issues.

PEC Zwolle

PEC Zwolle team overview

PEC make the trip to BUKO Stadion in high-spirits after a hard-fought 1:0 win against Twente last weekend. Thijs Oosting's early goal secured the points for Henry van der Vegt's side.

A solid end to last season's campaign saw PEC remain unbeaten in their final four fixtures of the season, securing a top-half finish.

Like the home side, PEC have been involved in several low-scoring encounters this year. Six of their eight most recent competitive matches finished with under 2.5 goals scored.

Head coach van der Vegt is likely to retain faith in the same side that edged past Twente. Injured duo Jasper Schendelaar and Odysseus Velanas are expected to remain sidelined for the visitors.
