SC Heerenveen
WLDLWL
SC Heerenveen will be looking for an improved result here after a 3-1 Eredivisie defeat in their last game at the hands of Sparta Rotterdam.
In that match, SC Heerenveen had 58% possession and 11 shots at goal with 5 of them on target. The only player to score for SC Heerenveen was Alireza Jahanbakhsh (94'). At the other end, Sparta Rotterdam got 15 attempts on goal with 7 of them on target. Mitchell van Bergen (29'), Tobias Lauritsen (69') and Nökkvi Þeyr Þórisson (84') scored for Sparta Rotterdam.
It has been a rare occasion in recent games where SC Heerenveen have shown defensive steel. In fact, SC Heerenveen have seen their defence breached in 6 of their previous 6 games, shipping 10 goals during that time. That kind of trend might not be carried forward into this match, though.
Analysis of their past results shows that SC Heerenveen:
- are winless against Almere City in their previous 2 league games.
- are unbeaten in their previous 5 home league matches.
Almere City
LLDWDL
Since suffering a loss in their previous game against PSV Eindhoven in Eredivisie competition, Almere City and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.
In that game, Almere City managed 28% possession and 8 attempts at goal with 2 on target. For their opponents, PSV got 34 attempts at goal with 17 on target. Ismael Saibari (5', 68'), Johan Bakayoko (22'), Noa Lang (26') and Malik Tillman (41') scored for PSV Eindhoven.
The stats tell the story, and Almere City have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, letting opponents get 10 goals overall. In defence, Almere City could really do with shoring things up.
↔️ Head to head

ℹ️ Team News: SC Heerenveen
Jacob Trenskow (unknown injury) and Pawel Bochniewicz (Torn knee ligaments) won’t be playing for SC Heerenveen gaffer Robin Veldman.
We think that De Superfriezen may well use a 4-2-3-1 formation for the game and select Andries Noppert, Hussein Ali, Sam Kersten, Nikolai Hopland, Mats Koehlert, Marcus Linday, Luuk Brouwers, Alireza Jahanbakhsh, Levi Smans, Ilias Sebaoui and Ion Nicolaescu.
ℹ️ Team News: Almere City
Almere City boss Jeroen Rijsdijk has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Jochem Ritmeester van de Kamp (Head injury) and Àlex Carbonell (Hamstring injury) will miss out on this game.
We’re of the thinking that De Zwarte Schapen seem most likely to begin the game with a 4-4-2 formation, going with Nordin Bakker, Hamdi Akujobi, Marvin Martins, James Lawrence, Vasilios Zagaritis, Kornelius Hansen, Thom Haye, Tim Receveur, Junior Kadile, Thomas Robinet and Charles-Andreas Brym.
💭 Prediction
We’re inclined to think that Almere City have the firepower to score a goal against this SC Heerenveen lineup, but that possibly won’t quite be enough to avoid a loss.
We’re going for a close game with a 2-1 winning margin for SC Heerenveen by the conclusion of the game. Let’s just see how this one goes.
