Uitdaging voor FC Groningen met top geklasseerd FC Utrecht - FC Groningen

Uitdaging voor FC Groningen met top geklasseerd FC Utrecht.

Vrijdag 11 april 2025 om 13:00

FC Groningen heeft in het slotdeel van dit seizoen een pittig programma in de Eredivisie. Na het traditioneel lastige uitduel met NAC Breda, de topwedstrijden tegen Feyenoord en PSV wacht zondag een andere hoog geklasseerde tegenstander: FC Utrecht. Het treffen met de nummer 4 van de ranglijst in Stadion Galgenwaard begint zondagmiddag om 12.15 uur. De ploeg van voormalig speler en trainer van de Trots van het Noorden, Ron Jans, is volop in de race voor plek 3 die recht geeft op deelname aan het Champions League-toernooi. Bijna duizend Groningen-supporters vergezellen het team van hoofdtrainer Dick Lukkien bij de jacht op een resultaat.

Donderdag werd de voetbalwereld opgeschrikt door het overlijden van voormalig topcoach Leo Beenhakker. Ter nagedachtenis aan de markante en zeer succesvolle trainer wordt dit weekend bij alle wedstrijden in het betaald voetbal een minuut stilte in acht genomen. Beenhakker was onder meer twee periodes bondscoach van het Nederlands elftal en een icoon van het Nederlandse voetbal.

Beenhakker begon zijn trainerscarrière in Veendam, de huidige woonplaats van Dick Lukkien. De FC-trainer speelde zelf ook een aantal jaren aan de Langeleegte en spreekt vol respect over Beenhakker. “Een heel kleurrijk mens, die grote triomfen heeft geboekt als trainer. Hij is met Real Madrid drie keer kampioen van Spanje geworden, met sexy voetbal. Een grote mijnheer, ook internationaal. Beenhakker heeft met uitdrukkingen en uitspraken het vocabulaire uitgebreid. Een flamboyante man.”

Selectie
In Euroborg waren medio oktober de beide FC’s aan elkaar gewaagd, maar was de ploeg van Jans het meest gelukkig en effectief, 0-1. FC Utrecht staat bijna al het gehele seizoen in de top van het klassement. “En dat is niet voor niets,” stelt Lukkien. “Ze hebben goede spelers en met Nick Viergever en Mike van der Hoorn een heel ervaren centraal duo achterin. Daarnaast hebben ze voorop behendige spelers lopen. Kortom; we kunnen aan de bak. In Groningen was het gelijk opgaand. Als dit zondag weer lukt, valt er voor ons mogelijk iets te halen.”

De vraag is nog of Lukkien zondagmiddag een beroep kan doen op Wouter Prins. De jeugdige linksback liet zich vorige week in het thuisduel met PSV vervangen met spierklachten. “Hij is nog twijfel voor zondag. Vandaag en morgen (vrijdag en zaterdag – red.)  trainen we nog en daarna kunnen we bekijken of Wouter een rol kan hebben in Utrecht. Sven Bouland keert daarentegen weer terug bij de ploeg. We missen alleen nog de langer geblesseerden Fofin Turay en Maxim Mariani.”

Scheidsrechter
Ook dit seizoen kiezen de supporters weer de Koning van de Wedstrijd door een stem uit te brengen via www.fcgroningen.nl/koning. Stemmen kan tot maandag 14 april 09.00 uur. De uitslag van de verkiezing ‘Koning van de Wedstrijd’ wordt meegeteld in de uiteindelijke verkiezing voor de Speler van het Jaar 2025.

FC Utrecht – FC Groningen staat zondagmiddag vanaf 12.15 uur onder leiding van scheidsrechter Edwin van de Graaf. Bekijk via onderstaande videoplayer de volledige voorbeschouwing van Dick Lukkien, waarin de hoofdtrainer onder meer terugblikt op het tweeluik met de topclubs Feyenoord en PSV, blij is met de contractverlenging van Tika de Jonge en ingaat op de kwaliteiten van de tegenstander van zondag: FC Utrecht.
