Our prediction for this Netherlands Eredivisie match:

Match Time & Date:

16:30
Prediction: 2-1
Sittard
Heerenveen play host to Fortuna Sittard at their Abe Lenstra Stadion in what is expected to be an entertaining Eredivisie clash. De Superfriezen head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Groningen, with the team eyeing their third win of the process. Croatia midfielder Tibor Halilovic has been producing fine displays at the start of the season, meaning that the opposition defenders should have him at bay.
Rami Kaib is rated doubtful for the match, while fellow defender Pawel Bochniewicz remains in the recovery room. Fortuna Sittard, on the other hand, have been having their ups and downs at the start of the season. The Yellow-Greens continue with their habit of producing much better displays at home than on the travels, which is the main reason why we predict Heerenveen will pick up all three points from the match. Lisandro Semedo (ankle injury) should be the only absentee in the away team.
Highlighted Player (Erwin Mulder):
Erwin Mulder is an experienced Dutch footballer who plays for Heerenveen as a goalkeeper. Mulder spent his youth career at R.K.P.S.C, Vitesse Arnhem, and Feyenoord, and he continued playing for the Rotterdam club at senior level.
After making 120 appearances in the Eredivisie with Feyenoord, the 193-cm-tall shot-stopper signed for Heerenveen as a free agent in the summer of 2015. It has to be noted, though, that Erwin Mulder was loaned to Excelsior during his spell with Feyenoord. His next stop was Swansea City where he made 29 league appearances before returning to Heerenveen in 2020.
Erwin Mulder was born in Pannerden on March 3, 1989, and he has three caps with the Netherlands U20 team. He has yet to earn a call-up with the Oranje senior team. The Heerenveen goalkeeper was named in the Netherlands Euro 2012 provisional squad, but after the training with the national team, he failed to make the cut.
Highlighted Team (Sittard):
Fortuna Sittard is one of the newer additions to Dutch football as the club was founded on July 1, 1968. During the 1990s talented footballers such as Kevin Hofland, Mark van Bommel, and Fernando Ricksen played for the club, but they failed to close the gap between Dutch giants Ajax and PSV. In 1999, though, the Fortunezen did well to make it to the Dutch Cup final, with the team facing Ajax in the title game.
Amsterdammers defeated Fortuna Sittard 2-0 at De Kuip, with Jesper Gronkjaer scoring a brace. Fortuna Sittard players wear yellow shirts and green shorts when playing at home, while their away kit is white. The Fortunezen host their rivals at Fortuna Sittard Stadion. The venue was built in 1999, and it can hold up to 12,500 spectators.
Aforementioned midfielder Mark Van Bommel is the most notable footballer who played for the club. After ending his spell with Fortuna Sittard in 1999, Mark van Bommel played for the likes of PSV, Barcelona, Bayern Munchen, and Milan.
