Groningen have had a rough start to the new season. They have lost three of their last four matches, including a heavy defeat in their most recent game. Their only win in that period was away from home, but they look vulnerable, especially at the Euroborg. Fortuna Sittard, on the other hand, are in decent shape. They won their last match on the road and have shown they can score and be hard to beat, picking up a draw in one of their other recent games.

Looking at how these two teams have faced each other before, the games have often been close and competitive. Wins have been shared in recent meetings, and a couple of those matches ended with several goals. Given that Groningen are struggling and Fortuna Sittard are looking more solid, this feels like a very tight contest. A draw seems like the most likely outcome, though Fortuna Sittard have a slight edge given their better form.
