Feyenoord - Heracles predictions

With top online bookmakers pricing a home win at odds of 1.19, it’s hard to expect anything other than a decisive Feyenoord victory. It’s a uniquely one-sided match – which rarely translates to a lot of excitement in the pitch.

The current perspective makes the situation crystal clear. Given the superiority of Feyenoord and the 13.00 odds given to Heracles to win, it is evident that anything but a home win would be an incredible shock.

Feyenoord entered their previous Eredivisie bout as the hard favourites but failed to get into their stride until the second half. They won as predicted, though, and walked away with a narrow 2:3 away win.

Heracles had a slight advantage in form going into the previous round, and betting predictions were rather optimistic. However, the first half did not go their way, and they barely managed to equalize before the final whistle and get away with a 2:2 draw.

Feyenoord are on a bit of a streak when it comes to scoring. With more than 7 over their last 3 matches, fans are feeling fairly confident in their goal-scoring ability. Likewise, bookmakers online are fairly confident the Saturday match will yield Over 4.5 goals.

Heracles can’t really boast a great record when it comes to playing as visitors. They conceded upwards of 5 goals in their most recent 3 away games. Considering they’re heading into another away game, that’s cause for concern.

Heracles shouldn’t pose much of a problem for the hosts, though they can’t afford to relax yet. There are more rounds of the season to go, so both improving and losing their number 4th slot in the standings is still on the table.

The home team has a long and clear history of dominance over Heracles. In the previous season, they secured several decisive victories, so it makes sense that the bookmakers labelled them as clear favourites.

This match is notable for the number of injuries reported prior by both sides. On one hand, the hosts will have to make do without Gijs Smal, Julián Carranza, Jeyland Mitchell, Hugo Bueno, Jordan Lotomba. On the other, the visitors will not be able to count on Sava-Arangel Cestic, Stijn Bultman, Nikolai Laursen, Ruben Roosken. Both are in a precarious state, but you should take the importance of these players to the respective strategies before putting down a stake.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 1, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
