The upcoming match between Heracles Almelo and SC Heerenveen appears to be a highly unpredictable one. Both teams have shown vulnerability in defense, with worrying average goals conceded both at home and away. SC Heerenveen, led by Robin van Persie, usually plays well on the road, but their high average goals allowed away from home could make them susceptible to Heracles' attacks.
On the other hand, Heracles Almelo, coached by Erwin van de Looi, has also struggled defensively at home, making them an equally risky bet. The match is a direct clash where any result is possible, making a bet on X2 a potentially good choice given the uncertainty surrounding the outcome.
Both teams recently secured three points in their last matches, showing good form coming into this game. However, the number of goals scored in previous encounters suggests that there could be a decent amount of scoring in this match.
In terms of their goal-scoring abilities this season, SC Heerenveen has a higher average of 1.3 goals per game compared to Heracles Almelo's 0.7 goals per game. This could give them a slight edge in terms of offensive prowess, but the match is still anyone's for the taking.
Looking at the recent head-to-head record between the two teams, the advantage seems to be slightly in favor of the away team, with four wins for SC Heerenveen and only one win for Heracles Almelo in the last five matches.
