Odds and Top Predictions for Heerenveen vs Go Ahead Eagles
Heerenveen needs a win in the final match of the season to secure a top-eight position in the standings which would enable them to play in the European placement playoffs.
Contents
Draw
There are three teams left that could take the eighth spot in the rankings, and besides Heerenveen and Go Ahead Eagles, there is also RKC Waalwijk. But, for this Heerenveen vs Go Ahead Eagles prediction, it will be a tricky encounter because the goal difference is the key aspect of teams ending up with the same number of points. Both Heerenveen and Go Ahead Eagles are -8 regarding their scorecard, but because Heerenveen has two points more than their next opponents, they can't finish with the same points total. Go Ahead Eagles could pull it through with a win here, but Heerenveen will make sure that their defensive wall is strong and decisive. The first match between these teams for the current campaign ended in a 1-1 draw.
Under 2.5 Goals
Because this Heerenveen vs Go Ahead Eagles duel is so important, this could be a low-scoring affair in the making. In the last five matches these teams played against each other, three games ended with fewer than three goals while the first match of this season ended with one goal on both sides of the field. Heerenveen had only one ‘under' match from their last five league outings and looking at the way Go Ahead Eagles played in the same lane of matches, they had two under 2.5 games. But, for the season, the Eagles are also the second-best ‘under' team in the Eredivisie.
