Heracles return to Eredivisie action looking to start a new winning run after back-to-back defeats, including a Dutch Cup exit to Go Ahead Eagles. Given their need for points and Twente's attacking potential, a 2-2 draw is on the cards. Injuries remain a problem for the Black and Whites, with Borges Sanches, Jeff Reine-Adelaide and Scheperman all sidelined, though there are no new concerns. Despite inconsistency, Heracles are strong at home, averaging 2.00 points per game and scoring an impressive 3.40 goals per match in Almelo. Their fixtures are typically wide open—Heracles deliver 5.20 goals per home game, with BTTS landing in 80% of their matches and no clean sheet recorded all season.
Twente, meanwhile, travel in excellent shape after a 2-1 Dutch Cup win over Utrecht and a five-match unbeaten run in the league. Their defensive record stands out: they concede just 0.90 goals per game overall and have kept 75% home clean sheets, though away numbers are looser with 100% BTTS. Offensively, Twente’s expected goals of 2.29 highlights their reliability in chance creation, and they score 2.00 goals per away match, which could threaten Heracles’ shaky defence.
The H2H history slightly favours Twente, who have won 12 of the last 24 meetings, with 67% BTTS across past clashes. As both sides show high BTTS rates (Heracles 80%, Twente away 100%), this betting option boasts big value, alongside Over 2.5 and Over 3.5 goals.
This Netherlands Eredivisie match will be played on Sunday 18 January 2026 at 13:30.
