PEC Zwolle will host Twente at the Mac3Park Stadion on Sunday in the final round of the 2023-24 Eredivisie campaign. The home side have had their struggles in the league of late, although they are set to finish comfortably above the drop zone.
They played out a 1-1 draw against Waalwijk last time out, taking the lead at the hour mark via a Lennart Thy strike before their opponents leveled the scores late in the game following a red card to Zico Buurmeester.
Twente, meanwhile, have enjoyed a strong campaign and will guarantee a spot in the UEFA Champions League qualifiers with a win on Sunday while a draw could also suffice. They thrashed relegated Volendam 7-2 in their last match with three different players getting on the scoresheet including Sem Steijn, who scored a brilliant hat-trick to take his league tally for the season to 17.

Zwolle are on a run of back-to-back winless outings although they have lost just one of their last five matches. They have won their last two games on home turf and will be hopeful of securing a third this weekend.
Twente have won two of their last three games and have lost just two of their last seven. They are without a win in their last four away matches but should have enough to pick up a point here.
