Go Ahead Eagles are close to the relegation zone, but with their form growing in the last four rounds, there is optimism that this team could prevail in a bid for survival.
Contents
Under 2.5 Goals
Nine rounds of matches are behind the Eredivisie clubs, and Heerenveen is keeping their place just above the European competitions zone at the eighth spot. What has become a standard for this team is their below-average goalscoring form as well as allowing goals on a reasonable level. Heerenveen only had four over 2.5 goals games this season while the Eagles had them on an even lesser scale, only three times. In their h2h matchup, two of their last three matches ended with only one goal.
Heerenveen to Win
There weren't many matches between these teams in the last few years as Go Ahead Eagles were in the Second Division, since 2015 they played only four times with Heerenveen winning three of those matches. The Eagles are undefeated in their last four Eredivisie encounters, while Heerenveen has been struggling with only one win in the same period. Heerenveen have trouble scoring goals, they had only four in their past six matches. However, with the full squad available for coach Kees van Wonderen things are looking positive.

Heerenveen need scorers
Go Ahead Eagles started the season with three straight losses at home against PSV, Sparta, and Feyenoord, but since then they have managed to snatch four points against weaker opposition than previously stated. Coach Rene Hake puts his trust in left-winger Oliver Valaker Edvardsen, their best scorer with four goals. But the defense needs a lot of work, they conceded 16 goals this season which is almost two per game on average. Lucky for them this time around, they are playing against a team whose attack is inconsistent, and one-dimensional.
Go Ahead Eagles predicted 11: De Lange, Kuipers, Idzes, Amofa, Deijl, Edvardsen, Rommens, Linthorst, Willumsson, Lidberg, Adekanye.
Sydney van Hooijdonk is the best player for Heerenveen this season, at the same time he is their top striker with four goals, and the second one is a right-back Milan van Ewijk which should say a lot about Heerenveen's forward line. Also, the team only had seven assists this season, and five of those were delivered by Amin Sarr. The optimism for Heerenveen will come in their away form, they lost only once, against Ajax with a 5-0 scoreline. Their only away win came against Vitesse in probably their best performance of the season scoring four unanswered goals.
Heerenveen predicted 11: Noppert, Kohlert, Van Ottele, Bochniewicz, van Beek, van Ewijk, Tahiri, Haye, Olsson, van Hooijdonk, Sarr.
Team News:
Go Ahead Eagles: Erwin Mulder is injured.
Heerenveen: No news to report.
