Our prediction for this Netherlands Eredivisie match:
Sunday’s football game between Vitesse and Heracles will bring down the curtain on day 15 of the new Eredivisie campaign. The Vitas are eager to put an end to their four-game losing run, but bear in mind that they conceded eight goals in total in the last two league matches. To make things even worse for the home side, midfielder Melle Meulensteen serves a one-game ban.
Heracles, on the other hand, suffered a 1-0 loss to Sparta Rotterdam in their last league match, but they are surely capable of matching the out-of-sorts Vitas. Anyhow, both teams to score betting option should be considered as both sides are eager to return to winning ways in the Dutch top flight. Diego van Oorschot continues to miss out with a broken leg, while all Navajo Bakboord, Jizz Hornkamp, and Nikolai Laursen are rated doubtful for the match.
Highlighted Team (Vitesse):
Nicknamed Vitas, the proud of Gelderland, Vitesse are a Dutch football club based in Arnhem. Vitesse compete in the Dutch Eredivisie and they have yet to win the national championship. However, they finished as runners-up in the Dutch elite division on five occasions (1897–98, 1902–03, 1912–13, 1913–14, 1914–15), while clinching third place in the standings in the 1997/1998 season.
Vitesse did remarkably well to win the 2016/2017 Dutch Cup title, with the team beating AZ Alkmaar in the final at De Kuip in Rotterdam. As a result, the Vitas booked their place in the Europa League group stages where they face the likes of Lazio, Nice and Zulte-Waregem.
Vitesse are well known for their yellow jerseys with black stripes, while the club’s away colour is black. GelreDome is the home ground of the Dutch team and the capacity of the venue is 21.248. It has to be noted that famous Spanish footballer Albert Ferrer was in charge of the club in the 2010/2011 season.
