Dutch Eredivisie: Sparta Rotterdam – PEC Zwolle

Your Web 3 Guru and Moonbet presenting todays match: Sparta Rotterdam against PEC Zwolle

Sparta Rotterdam has already experienced a blend of victories, losses, and draws in the early part of this calendar year. After securing four points in 2024, they entered the Sunday program in eighth place, rekindling their hopes for participation in the postseason playoffs. With 26 points from 19 games, their primary objective of survival is well within reach. However, challenges persist at the castle.

Despite their historical success at home, they’ve only managed to accumulate nine points in their home games. Perhaps Jeroen Rijsdijk’s team needs to embark on a lengthy bus journey before matches to enhance their chances of success! The transfer activity for Sparta has been relatively quiet, with some redundant players removed from the squad, and the addition of Japanese newcomer Shunsuke Mite.

Their upcoming opponents, PEC Zwolle, have seen notable changes in their squad composition. Departures include Nico Serrano and Dean Huiberts, while Kaj de Rooij, Filip Krastev, and Silvester van der Water joined the club, which currently sits in tenth place, just three points behind Sparta. A victory today would level them with Sparta, making this a crucial “six-pointer.”

In the 2024 calendar year, PEC closed in on Sparta by one point, remaining undefeated in three games against SC Heerenveen (2-2), AZ Alkmaar (2-2), and Vitesse Arnhem (1-0). The newcomers enjoy a seemingly comfortable margin of eight points from the 16th position in the standings heading into today’s match, ensuring that the bottom half of the competition remains exciting for months to come.

Players to keep an eye on: Sparta’s Joshua Kitolano (5 goals, 2 assists) secured an important point at RKC last weekend with a converted penalty kick, while Zwolle’s Eliano Reijnders (2 goals, 1 assist) stood out in the home match against Vitesse.

Hot streak: Sparta’s last 11 Eredivisie games have all resulted in a different win-draw-loss outcome compared to the previous one. They drew 1-1 with Waalwijk last round.
