Prediction: 2-1
Venlo
Erve Asito will host Saturday’s football game between Heracles and Venlo, the two teams with entirely different ambitions in the season finale. Heracles are eyeing a place in the Conference League playoffs, and we are positive that they will go for a win against Venlo. Both Bijeveld and Breukers have been struggling with injuries, and the duo is unlikely to feature in Saturday’s clash.
The visitors, on the other hand, are running down a blind alley, with the team losing each of their previous seven league fixtures. Venlo remain in the relegation zone, and given their poor form, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Heracles, who are eyeing a place in the Europa Conference League. Greece attacker Georgios Giakoumakis is back for the visitors after he served his one-game ban in the 2-0 loss to Sparta Rotterdam at the weekend.

Following his loan spell with the Yellow and Blacks, the 193-cm-tall shot-stopper moved to fellow German side Hansa Rostock, signing yet another loan deal. In 2018 he joined Dutch club Heracles Almelo, and he has been playing for the Heraclieden ever since. Janis Blaswich made his Eredivisie debut on August 11, 2018 in a 1-1 draw with Heracles, and he managed to keep his first clean sheet in the Dutch top flight the following month in a 4-0 win over De Graafschap.
The goalkeeper was born in Willich, Germany on May 2, 1991, and his preferred foot is right. Janis Blaswich wears the No. 1 shirt at Heracles.
Highlighted Team (Venlo):
Based on the Dutch-German border, VVV-Venlo is a Dutch football club that plays in the Eredivisie. The club was founded on February 7, 1903 under the name of Venlose Voetbal Vereniging, and it’s considered one of the oldest clubs in Dutch football.
VVV Venlo are well known for their yellow shirts and black shorts, and, as a result, they are often called the Yellow Black Army. Venlo play home games at De Koel, the stadium which is able to hold up to 8,000 spectators.
Japan international Keisuke Honda is one of the most notable international footballers who played for the club. However, Honda is not the only Japanese player to wear the yellow jersey as the likes of Maya Yoshida, Robert Cullen, and Yuki Otsu played for the club as well. Roda JC are seen as one of the club’s main rivals, with the two clubs facing each other in the Limburgse derby.
