Giovanni van Bronckhorst has opted for Tjark Ernst as goalkeeper in Zwolle, despite a tough duel in Barcelona. The Feyenoord defense will be led by Jeremiah St. Juste and Tsuyoshi Watanabe, with Givairo Read playing as right back and Mika Mármol playing as left back. Charles Vanhoutte and Gjivai Zechiël have secured a starting spot in midfield, with Oussama Targhalline impressing in his substitute appearance against Barcelona. Van Bronckhorst was pleased with Targhalline's performance, stating that he wanted to change the pressure in the second half by putting Valente on the flank, and Oussama has fulfilled this role well, allowing for more pressure to be applied forward, which is a strength of Targhalline's.
Anis Hadj Moussa will operate on the right flank, with Luciano Valente playing on the left. Nacho Ferri, who had a goal disallowed against Barcelona for offside, will lead the Feyenoord attack in Zwolle.
