- Kickoff: 19:00 UK / 20:00 CET
- Venue: Abe Lenstra Stadion (Heerenveen)
The 14th round of the Eredivisie will kick off with a matchup between Heerenveen and RKC Waalwijk.
Heerenveen currently sits in 12th place on the table with 14 points. Their recent form has been inconsistent, as they struggle to string together a series of positive results. In their most recent outing, they suffered a convincing 3-0 defeat at De Kuip against Feyenoord. That match also marked the return of Robin van Persie to a venue where he created unforgettable memories as a player. Looking ahead, Heerenveen faces a challenging schedule, making this match a must-win to build a buffer from the teams in the relegation zone.
On the other side, there isn’t much positive to say about RKC Waalwijk’s season so far. With just one win and two draws from their first 14 games, they find themselves at the bottom of the table. While the season is still in its early stages, relegation looms as a real threat, potentially marking their first drop in six years. Interestingly, all of Waalwijk’s points have come in their last five matches - a small sign of hope they’ll be looking to build on as the campaign progresses.
Heerenveen vs RKC Waalwijk pick: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE
Robin van Persie's first season as a manager may not have started as well as he had hoped, but as time has gone by, his club's form has been on an upward trajectory. Heerenveen have won 3 of their last 5 matches in all competitions and their tendency to play attacking football is evident. They are undoubtedly the big favourites in this match, but sometimes it's the hardest to play such a matches. RKC's position in the table can be deceiving, and they are traditionally a very difficult matchup for the team from Heerenveen. In the last 3 matches between them, both teams have achieved one win and one draw, and a total of 11 goals scored. We could see something similar this time around, so BTTS is the safest bet.
