Our prediction for this Netherlands Eredivisie match:
Zwolle will be aiming to put an end to their three-game losing run when they face Heracles on Sunday afternoon. Zwolle have been struggling to find their form in the new Eredivisie campaign, but they are still seen as favourites to beat Heracles on home soil. Defender Thierry Lutonda is banned for the match following his sending-off in the 1-0 loss to NEC Nijmegen, while both Braydon Manu and Tristan Gooijer are out of contention with injuries.
Heracles, on the other hand, are eager to record their first win of the process as well. As both sides are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach in Sunday’s encounter, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on both teams to score. The likes of Hoogma, Zamburek, Hornkamp, Bultman, Cestic, and Laursen have been struggling with injuries of late, speaking of the visiting team.
Highlighted Team (Zwolle):
Founded on June 12, 1910, PEC Zwolle is a Dutch football club which competes in the Eredivisie. Zwolle have yet to win the national championship, but they did remarkably well to lift the Dutch Cup trophy in 2014. Ron Jans’s troops impressed in the title game, with the team rolling over Dutch giants Ajax 5-1.
The Blauwingers play their home games at MACPARK Stadion, the venue with the capacity of 14,000 people. The multi-use stadium was opened on August 29, 2009. Zwolle’s home kit is blue and white, while the colour of their away jersey is green and white. In the 2014/15 season the Blauwingers represented the Netherlands in the Europa League, with the team losing to Sparta Prague in the play-off round.
The likes of Henk Timmer (237), Johan Hansma (231), Bert Konterman (219), Arne Slot (208), and Jasper Drost (182) are the players with the most league appearances for the club. Go Ahead Eagles are considered the club’s biggest rivals as both teams are located at the river Ijssel.
