Betting on Heerenveen
Seven points separate Heerenveen from the Conference League, and with three games left to play, it looks complicated, as it needs a combination of results from other teams to be able to qualify. It is not impossible, but very difficult considering the team’s current situation.
The team suffered two defeats in a row, against Sparta Rotterdam (4-0) and Emmen (2-3). These two games took this team out of the European competition zone, and now it will have to row against the current.
Heerenveen defeated NEC by a 2-3 score and that brought it closer on the last matchday. Now, the team has a tough schedule ahead. At home, this team has not been as decisive, it has played 15 times and has won only five games along with eight defeats, in fact, this team is among the worst home tams in the Netherlands.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Xavier Mous; Milan van Ewijk, Syb van Ottele, Pawel Bochniewicz, Mats Kohlert; Thom Haye, Anas Tahiri; Simon Olson, Pelle van Amersfoort, Osame Sahraoui; Sydney can Hooijdonk.
Betting on Excelsior
Only a tragedy would be able to send this team straight to the second division, as it has a 10-point lead over Groningen with three games left. It is possible, but if the team keeps adding points in the upcoming matches, and Groningen keeps its negative momentum going, Excelsior will not be relegated directly.
The problem is that the team is currently in a promotion playoff position and is fighting against Emmen, to which it is tied with in points. The goal difference is the only thing that separates them. So, neither team can afford to lose any points at this moment.
This team has gone winless for two games: a goalless draw against Vitesse and a defeat against the already champion Feyenoord (0-2).
Possible Lineup (5-4-1): Stijn van Gassel; Siebe Horemans, Sven Nieuwpoort, Redouan al Yaakoubi, Kik Pierie, Arthur Zagre; Couhaib Driouech, Peer Koopmeiners, Julian Bass, Kenzo Goudmijn; Maouran Azarkan
JefeBet Prediction
Excelsior is not doing well, and it has not been efficient when playing away. The team has played 15 matches this entire tournament, winning only one and losing 12 time, recording 42 goals conceded and only 8 scored. Heerenveen is at the bottom of the standings for a reason.
We believe that Heerenveen will continue to hope for Europe and will win this match by a good goal difference.
Prediction: Moneyline of Heerenveen and Over (HEE 3-0 EXC).
