Groningen to Win
Groningen followed up their fine 3-1 win at Vitesse with a hard-fought 2-1 triumph over Go Ahead Eagles last time out and a third success on the spin looks possible against Fortuna Sittard on Saturday. Groningen thumped their opponents 4-1 in last year’s reverse fixture, while it’s also worth noting that Fortuna have lost eight of their 11 away assignments in the Eredivisie since the summer.
Both Teams to Score
While we expect Groningen to come out on top this weekend, a clean sheet could be trickier for the hosts to secure. Danny Buijs’ side have claimed just three shutouts in 21 Eredivisie fixtures in 2021/22 and their habit for leaving the door open could allow Fortuna to net a consolation. Both teams notched when the clubs last locked horns in November and a similar outcome is on the cards here.
Jorgen Strand Larsen to Score Anytime
Norwegian attacker Jorgen Strand Larsen is enjoying a fine campaign for Groningen and the 22-year-old’s haul of three goals in his last two games moved him to within a single strike of double-figures for the season. Larsen got in on the act when Trots van het Noorden comfortably beat Fortuna last year and the in-form frontman can make his presence felt again in Saturday’s rematch.
Groningen vs Fortuna Sittard: Match Preview and Team News
Groningen
Groningen have a chance to record three victories in a row for the first time this season when they take on Fortuna Sittard on Saturday. Swedish midfielder Daleho Irandust missed the club’s latest win over Go Ahead last time out, though the 23-year-old will hope to be back in contention this weekend. Groningen have lost just twice at the Euroborg stadium this season.
Fortuna Sittard
Fortuna Sittard climbed one place from second last into 16th position with a timely 2-0 win over Heerenveen last weekend, with forward Zian Flemming his team’s two-goal hero against De Superfriezen. Coach Sjors Ultee will be determined to harness the momentum from that triumph against Groningen and the 34-year-old has virtually a full squad to choose from this week.
