Groningen – ADO Den Haag

Groningen host a struggling ADO Den Haag in what promises to be a pivotal clash in the lower half of the table. Sitting ninth with eight points from two wins, two draws and two losses and a narrow 12‑13 goal difference, the home side will be keen to turn their modest form into a genuine push for the top half. ADO, languishing at the foot of the league with just one point from a solitary draw and a 6‑16 deficit, will need a miracle to climb out of the relegation zone. The two teams have yet to meet this season, but the disparity in recent results suggests Groningen should have the upper hand in front of their own fans.
