Our prediction for this Netherlands Eredivisie match:
After suffering a massive 9-0 defeat at Ajax, Cambuur will be aiming to give fans some cheer when they take on Heracles at Cambuur Stadion. The newcomers are eyeing their third win of the season, but this game will be anything but a walk in the park for the home team. Erik Schouten should be the only absentee in the home team. Heracles, on the other hand, did well to beat AZ Alkmaar 3-2 in their last league match.
The Black and Whites aim to escape the danger zone, and given Cambuur’s shaky defence, we believe that punters from all four corners of the world can find value in betting on the visiting team. In their last encounter in the Dutch top flight Heracles outplayed Cambuur 3-1, and we predict that the history is going to repeat itself. The good news for the visiting side is that Turkey attacker Sinan Bakis returns from suspension.
