We said: SBV Excelsior 2-1 PEC Zwolle

Excelsior have enjoyed a productive start to the season and will be confident of extending their unbeaten run to five matches against a Zwolle side who have stuttered in recent games. The visitors face another difficult assignment following contests with AZ, Heracles and Feyenoord prior to the international pause, and we believe that Jansen's men will come up short in Rotterdam on Sunday.
