A high-scoring affair is always guaranteed when Heracles and Heerenveen share the pitch, with both sides producing some of the most entertaining numbers in the Eredivisie so far. Therefore, we predict that they will play out a 2-2 draw at Asito Stadium. Heracles matches average a huge 5.0 goals, while they have scored 2.7 per game but are yet to keep a clean sheet. At home, the chaos increases further, with 6.0 goals per match and BTTS landing in 80% of fixtures. Their attacking output is backed by solid expected goals numbers (1.55 overall), though defensive issues remain evident. Important defender Ivan Mesik is suspended, which further weakens a back line already conceding 2.3 goals per game.
Heerenveen bring similar attacking potential, averaging 3.5 total goals per match and scoring 2.0 goals per game regardless of venue. Away from home, they hold a 57% win rate, while BTTS has landed in 57% of those fixtures. Their expected goals (1.76) suggests the attacking output is sustainable. Midfielder Levi Smans is sidelined, but his absence is not expected to significantly disrupt their structure.
As neither side keeps clean sheets consistently, BTTS is our main betting tip for Friday's Eredivisie encounter, with additional value on Over 2.5 goals (54% H2H) and Over 3.5 goals (31% H2H).
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Saturday 20 December 2025 at 15:30.
