Wednesday evening brings us action from the Dutch top flight and a clash between Sparta Rotterdam and Zwolle in the Eredivisie at the Sparta-Stadion Het Kasteel with Sparta Rotterdam looking to climb out of the relegation play-off spot.
Third from bottom hosts, Sparta Rotterdam, know they have a golden opportunity to climb out of the relegation play-off spot when they entertain basement dwellers, Zwolle, on Wednesday night especially after recording a welcome 2-1 win away at Groningen on the weekend.
Indeed, although they’ve lost three of their last nine games, Sparta Rotterdam have also picked up valuable points during this period with wins against Go Ahead Eagles, Vitesse and the aforementioned Groningen.
Sparta have also lost just once in their last five games on home soil.
Zwolle sit bottom of the Eredivisie and with just two games remaining of this Eredivisie campaign, the visitors find themselves five points adrift of safety prior to this vital midweek clash at fellow strugglers Sparta Rotterdam.
Despite picking up recent wins against AZ and Waalwijk, Zwolle have also lost four of their last seven games overall, losing to the likes of Feyenoord, Twente, Go Ahead and Ajax, but they have picked up some valuable wins on the road in recent times as well.
Zwolle have won four of their last seven matches on their travels but the bigger picture shows it’s just four wins out of their last 18 away games in the Dutch top flight and they could have their work cut out at Sparta Rotterdam on Wednesday night.
The Betting Verdict
Sparta Rotterdam look to hold a slight edge over Zwolle in this one.
