Heracles vs De Graafschap
Dutch Eredivisie
Date: Saturday, 21st September 2018
Kick-off at 19:00 UK/ 20:00 CET
Venue: Polman Stadion (Almelo).
Heracles will hope to get a 3rd consecutive win this weekend as they host struggling De Graafschap at Polman Stadion.
De Graafschap on their own part have failed to keep up with their opening day surprise win against Feyenoord. They have failed to win any of their following 4 games, losing to NAC Breda, Groningen and VVV while they drew 1-1 with Emmen.
Heracles have been good so far, exempt for the 5-0 Humiliation against Willem II, they have been unbeaten in other games with 3 wins and a draw. They have bounced back from the Willem defeat with 2 consecutive victories against Heerenveen and AZ Alkmaar. They have also netted at least 3 goals in the two games which suggests this game would witness a lot of goals.
With the poor form De Graafschap have found themselves in, it would be hard to keep Heracles at bay.
The two sides have met a total of 13 different times and Heracles have won most of the games. Heracles have 7 wins and lost just twice to De Graafschap while the remaining 4 games ended in stalemate.
Most of Heracles victories have been at De Graafschap home ground as they have fair record of 2 wins each at Polman Stadion.
They last met in 2015/16 Eredivisie season which Heracles won with a 2-1 score line.
Heracles are the favorites in this game, they have head to head advantage though they haven’t been superb in their previous home meetings.
We are backing Heracles to make it 3 wins from 3 at home in this game having won their first 2 home games this term. Also we expect the game to record at least 3 match goals.
