SC Heerenveen - Vitesse predictions

The odds are definitely leaning in the hosts’ favour, but this match is far from a done deal. Judging by odds alone, Vitesse may yet be able to walk away with a draw or even a surprise victory – though it’s still a longshot.

From the present standpoint, the situation is clear as day. Considering the strength of SC Heerenveen and the 5.95 odds given to Vitesse to win, it is easy to conclude that a victory for the visiting team would be a surprising upset.

The hosts can feel pretty satisfied with their previous match. SC Heerenveen had a difficult trip to survive in the Eredivisie and they did it by holding on both at the halftime mark and following the final whistle for an HT/FT Almere City draw.

Vitesse are coming on the back of a predictable 1:0 loss in their previous away game at FC Utrecht. They spent the first half toe-to-toe with their opponents, though, which was quite a feat given how hard the matchup was for them.

The hosts will be looking to cut down on the number of goals they concede. They’ve recorded more than 5 total concessions over the last 3 matches, which is usually a cause for concern.

With 9 goals in their own net over the last 3 fixtures, Vitesse's backline has much to be wished for

SC Heerenveen already have a victory over Vitesse on their record. It happened earlier in this running season of the Eredivisie, marking them as the clear favourites for the upcoming showdown.

This Sunday, both teams will have a full roster available to them, thanks to the absence of injuries or suspensions.

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 2.35 odds offered at 1xbet are great for value, too.
