Heerenveen vs Volendam Picks and Predictions

Two teams with different perspectives are meeting in this Eredivisie round 28 matches.

Both Teams to Score – Yes

There are plenty of goals being scored when these two teams are meeting each other, and looking at their current run of form, Heerenveen had four out of the last five games with both teams scoring at least a goal. When it comes to Volendam, they had three BTTS matches with the same number of games played. Looking at the h2h record for this Heerenveen vs Volendam prediction, interestingly there were only two official games between these sides in the last seven years, and in total five games with three being friendlies, four of them ended with goals being scored from both sides of the field. The last time they played was three months ago in the Dutch Cup and Heerenveen won by the score of 2-0.

Over 2.5 Goals

We are going with the same sentiment for this bet regarding the second prediction for Heerenveen vs Volendam match. Heerenveen is more of an ‘under' team this season with 14 of those games in total, but only two from the last five games. Volendam goes the other way, they are a top three over 2.5 goals team with 17 for the season, and the average of goals being scored during their matches is 3.2 which is also the third-highest mark. From the past five matches between these sides, only one ended with fewer than three goals in the back of the net.

Team Information, Heerenveen vs Volendam Lineups and Preview

Heerenveen

The home team is once again in a position to fight for a promotion playoffs spot that would allow them to qualify for Europe. Heerenveen is four points away from the seventh-placed Utrecht, and with seven more games to go, there isn't much time for the hosts to achieve that goal. Joost van Aken is the only player injured for Heerenveen while there is some doubt whether Andries Noppert and Sven van Beek will be able to play after suffering through some health issues.

Probable lineup: Mous, van Ewijk, Van Ottele, Bocnhriewicz, Kohlert, Haye, Tahiri, Olsson, van Amersfoort, Sahraoui, van Hooijdonk.

Volendam

One of the youngest squads in Eredivisie was also a top favorite for relegation. However, something significantly changed about the Volendam team in the second part of the season as of now, they have a great chance of surviving the season and living to fight another day in the top division. With two wins out of their last four matches, Volendam is in a good run of form and will look to add some extra points in this away tie to Heerenveen. The visitors don't have any injury issues at this time.

Probable lineup: Stankovic, Buur, Plat, Benamar, Mbuyamba, Murkin, van Mieghem, Eiting, Twigt, Oristanio, Veerman.

Player to Watch: Sydney van Hooijdonk

The versatile striker born and raised in Breda is Heerenveen's top goalscorer this season with 11 goals to his credit. He delivered a single assist as well while playing in 26 matches. With Heerenveen's form on and down a level in the last couple of months, van Hooijdonk offered some much-needed stability at the forward position.
