Prediction: 2-0
Heracles
Go Ahead Eagles play host to Heracles at their De Adelaarhorst on day 8 of the new Eredivisie campaign. Go Ahead Eagles aim to make amends for back-to-back defeats to PSV and Feyenoord and you should bear in mind that they have a chance to keep their 100% record at home intact. Finn Stokkers is a major doubt and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Black and Whites, on the other hand, continue with their old habit of producing fine displays, while struggling on the travels and that is yet another reason why we are going to bet on Go Ahead Eagles, who have turned De Adelaarhorst into a real fortress. To make things even worse for the visiting side, midfielder Thomas Bruns is banned for the match.
