NEC Form
NEC return to the Goffertstadion after a disappointing 1-0 defeat at Almere City on Saturday. A late own goal from Thomas Ouwejan condemned the Nooit Eerste Classer to a third successive away defeat.
Rogier Meijer's side have enjoyed a solid run of form in home fixtures, with seven points collected from their last four Eredivisie contests in Nijmegen.
NEC also boast a strong record in recent KNVB Beker home matches, claiming four successive wins since 2022.
NEC Team News
NEC come into Tuesday's cup clash with a couple of likely absentees. Philippe Sandler is sidelined with a foot injury, while Dirk Proper has a shoulder issue.
PEC Zwolle Form
PEC face the second of three consecutive away fixtures after a 6-0 thrashing at Eredivisie champions PSV on Saturday. Four goals conceded in the second period ensured the visitor's heaviest defeat since a 6-0 reversal at AZ in 2018.
Johnny Jansen's men have made a poor start to their Eredivisie campaign, with only eight points collected from ten games completed.
The Blauwvingers away record has proven a major issue in 2024. PEC failed to win any of their 12 previous road trips since February (D6, L6).
PEC Zwolle Team News
PEC boss Jansen has no new selection issues this weekend but is still unable to call on long-term injured duo Samir Lagsir and Tristan Gooijer.
