Sparta Rotterdam vs Heerenveen predictions, betting tips & match preview

After earning promotion to the Eredivisie last season, Sparta enjoyed a decent start to their new campaign in the top flight. They lost to Ajax on the opening day, but then went on to win 3 and draw 1 of their next 5 games. This form quickly declined though, and they have since drawn 3 and lost 2 of their last 5 games.

Heerenveen have had almost the complete opposite start to the season, drawing 2 and losing one of their first 3 games, before winning 6, drawing 1 and losing 1 of their next 8 games.

Both of these sides love to score plenty of goals, and concede quite a few in the process, especially Sparta. Heerenveen have seen 3+ goals on 9 occasions from their 11 games played this season, with a 1-0 win and 1-1 drawn making up the numbers. Sparta have seen 3+ goals on 5 occasions, but 4 of the times where they’ve fell short, there has still been 2 goals in the game.

Taking all of this into account, we are confident in tipping Over 2.5 Goals and Both teams to score at 10/11. We think Heerenveen will edge the game so we’re going with a correct score bet of 2-1 to Heerenveen.
