ADO Den Haag will be hoping to bounce back from their 4-2 defeat against Ajax when they welcome PEC Zwolle on Wednesday, having failed to pick up a win in their previous nine league games.
Meanwhile, Zwolle will also be keen to get back to winning ways, with their latest result ending in a disappointing 0-0 draw against FC Emmen.
Match preview
Den Haag have claimed just one win this season, with the hosts currently sitting in the relegation zone as they enter Wednesday's fixture.
As previously mentioned, their most recent match ended in a loss against current leaders Ajax, despite both Michiel Kramer and Samy Bourard netting in the second half.
This means that Den Haag are yet to win at home this season, having suffered four defeats across six games.
However, if they do manage a victory in midweek, it could seem them climb above VVV-Venlo in the table and one place ahead of the relegation playoffs.
On the other hand, Zwolle have also experienced a pretty poor start to the 2020-21 campaign - claiming just two wins as they sit in 11th spot in the table.
Their previous result saw a 0-0 draw against a struggling Emmen side, with their recent opponents gaining just their fifth point of the term.
In fact, John Stegeman's men have won just once in their previous 11 league games, with their latest triumph witnessing a promising 2-1 win over Vitesse earlier this month.
However, it is worth noting that the visitors are yet to win on the road this season, managing just four points from a possible 18.
The last time these two sides met was back in October last year, when Zwolle claimed a convincing 3-1 win against Den Haag, featuring goals from the likes of Kramer and Pelle Clement.

Unfortunately for Den Haag fans, they are faced with a few injuries ahead of Wednesday's game, with Shaquille Pinas set to miss the match.
Coach Ruud Brood is also without Peet Bijen for the clash against Zwolle, as the centre-back continues to recover from his long-term ankle injury.
The Dutch manager is expected to make a few changes to the team that lost against Ajax last time out, bringing Ricardo Kishna back into the side.
As for the visitors, Thomas Lam returns from suspension, following his red card against VVV last month.
Slobodan Tedic is also ruled out for Zwolle, with the youngster expected to return next month.
ADO Den Haag possible starting lineup:
Koopmans; Van Ewijk, Del Fabro, Kemper, Faye; De Boer, Rigo, Pacu; Besuijen, Kramer, Kishna
PEC Zwolle possible starting lineup:
Zetterer; Van Wermeskerken, Kersten, Lam, Paal; Saymak, Strieder, Nakayama; Drost, Tedic, Van Duinen
We say: ADO Den Haag 1-1 PEC Zwolle
Currently, there is not much to separate the two sides, with Zwolle only six points ahead of Den Haag in the table. Although the visitors hold the better record, their poor away form as well as their recent draw against Emmen suggests it will be a close encounter on Wednesday.
