Stats for this game

Matchup Willem II VS Groningen

Groningen set the tone

The wider balance favours Groningen, whose wins have arrived at both venues. Groningen won 3–1 at Willem II on 15 February 2025 and 2–0 at home on 30 November 2024. Those outcomes establish the stronger profile, but they do not remove the need to manage a fixture in which Willem II have also found ways to resist. The home side is therefore not without leverage, particularly when it keeps the contest close and denies a decisive margin.

Willem II’s answer remains credible

The 1–1 draw at Willem II on 26 April 2024 kept Groningen from gaining a decisive margin, while Willem II’s 2–1 home win on 18 September 2021 provides a direct reversal. Together, those results make the pairing more nuanced than Groningen’s broader advantage suggests. Future encounters will ask whether Willem II can turn home resistance into another positive result, or whether Groningen can restore separation across either venue.
