Heerenveen have experienced a rollercoaster of form lately, but remains a formidable force at home. The squad will be without key players Bochniewicz, Hopland, and Smans due to injuries, which could impact their defensive stability. Despite recent inconsistencies, their home advantage makes them a tough opponent.
Excelsior, on the other hand, couldn't capitalize on their chances against PSV over the weekend, and their defensive record on the road is concerning—they’ve already conceded ten goals away this season. With no fresh injury concerns in their squad, they’ll aim to tighten up at the back, but their attacking options might struggle to break down a solid Heerenveen defense. Fans can anticipate a match where Heerenveen’s home advantage and determination could secure all three points despite the setbacks.
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Saturday 4 October 2025 at 20:00.
