Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-2
Groningen
Heracles will be aiming to make amends for a 5-2 loss to Feyenoord when they take on Groningen in the Eredivisie round 17. Heracles failed to win the previous five league matches, but it seems as if their performances are much better than the results. Justin Hoogma is pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute in the De Kuip defeat, while all Sava Cestic, Nikolai Laursen, and Stijn Bultman remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Groningen, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 2-0 loss to Twente. As both Heracles and Groningen will go for a win in Saturday’s clash, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. It has to be noted that both Stije Resink and Leandro Bacuna are banned for the visiting side, while duo Tika de Jonge – Paulos Abraham remains in the recovery room.
