SC Heerenveen

WDWWLL

SC Heerenveen will be hoping to bounce back here following a 2-0 Eredivisie losing effort in their last game against FC Twente.

In that game, SC Heerenveen managed 43% possession and 8 shots at goal with 2 of them on target. At the other end, FC Twente had 16 attempts on goal with 6 of them on target. Manfred Ugalde (77') and Ricky van Wolfswinkel (88') scored for FC Twente.

An interesting theme in recent SC Heerenveen games is the number of nil scores.

Taking their previous 6 matches leading up to this one, in 5 of them a wager on BTTS would have been a loser.

Go Ahead Eagles

LDWLLL 📉

Since suffering a loss in their previous game against RKC Waalwijk in Eredivisie action, Go Ahead Eagles will be aiming to make amends here.

In that match, Go Ahead Eagles managed 60% possession and 9 shots at goal with 4 of them on target. RKC Waalwijk had 10 attempts on goal with 3 on target. Finn Stokkers (21') and Michiel Kramer (34') scored for RKC Waalwijk.

The strike force from Go Ahead Eagles have failed to get amongst the goals over their previous six games, netting the poor return of just 3. In those fixtures, Trots aan de IJssel have also seen the collective goal tally of their opponents equal 8. Such a trend might not be carried forward here, however.
