Match Time & Date:

14:30
Prediction: 1-1
Sparta Rotterdam
Heracles will look to make amends for back-to-back losses to Willem II and RKC when they host Sparta Rotterdam to their Erve Asito on the last day of the season. Heracles are one point away from securing the Eredivisie survival, and they are likely to adopt a cautious approach in Sunday’s clash. Midfielder Anas Ouahim is back from suspension, while Sven Sonnenberg has yet to serve his ban.
The Rotterdammers, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Groningen and Zwolle. Sparta are desperate to secure yet another elite division survival, but beating Heracles on the road is easier said than done. 16th-place Fortuna Sittard take on Nec on the road on Sunday, meaning that Sparta should be happy with one point from the match as well. Midfielder Adil Auassar is a major doubt after limping off with injury in a 2-0 win over Zwolle.
