PEC Zwolle - SC Heerenveen predictions

With 2.29 on home win, the ground is level and three points are everyone’s to take. However, we’d still recommend backing PEC Zwolle who should end up victorious in the end against SC Heerenveen.

The visitors are conscious of the challenge before them. To come out on top against PEC Zwolle on their home field would be a noteworthy accomplishment, and it is never an easy task.

PEC Zwolle’s previous Eredivisie match did not go their way, but not even the most stubborn fans would have predicted a different result against a team as strong as AZ Alkmaar . They played as visitors, and the top online bookmakers priced an away win at 8.83. They never recovered from some early concessions, and the score was brought to a conclusive 2:0 result before the end.

SC Heerenveen didn’t have much hope of winning their previous Eredivisie engagement – most bookies priced their victory at 2.10. Against all odds, though, they managed to end the bout with a draw thanks to an equaliser in the second half.

A high concessions rate is not a good look to have, and PEC Zwolle have been on a downward spiral when it comes to their defensive performance. With 5 goals conceded over their past 3 games, there’s definite room for improvement.

It’s easy to spot a certain trend when looking over SC Heerenveen’s recent history – and not in a good way. Their latest appearances were marked by a high concession rate. For example, their previous 3 matches featured more than 5 conceded goals.

We see several draws on record between these two teams in the past season alone. PEC Zwolle may be the favourites, but it’s becoming very clear that they can’t easily beat SC Heerenveen.

The hosts may be favourites to win the match, but their lineup is in a somewhat weakened state. Samir Lagsir, Tristan Gooijer, Younes Namli are all sidelined due to injury, which makes PEC Zwolle’s position as favourites a bit shakier than it might seem.

An Over 3.5 Goals wager here can net you considerably better results than the Over 2.5 counterpart, and the probability of winning remains almost as strong. The 1 odds offered at 1xbet are great for value, too.
