Prediction: 1-1
Sparta Rotterdam
Heracles and Sparta Rotterdam square off against each other at Asito Stadium in what is expected to be a close Eredivisie encounter. The Black and Whites failed to win the previous five league matches, meaning that they are desperate to kickstart 2025 in style. The likes of Bultman, Cestic, Kulenovic, and Laursen are out of contention with injuries for the home team.
The Rotterdammers, on the other hand, aim to bounce back from a 2-0 loss to Ajax. As both Sparta Rotterdam and Heracles will go for a win in Saturday’s encounter, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. The good news for the visiting team is that defender Mike Eerdhuijzen is back to the starting XI after serving a one-game ban against the Amsterdammers. Midfielder Pelle Clement has overcome his minor injury.
Highlighted Team (Heracles):
Heracles is a professional Dutch club based in Almelo. The club was formed back in May 1903 and named after Heracles, the demigod son of Zeus.
