Heerenveen to win at Zwolle

Heerenveen to win at Zwolle

On Tuesday night, PEC Zwolle host Heerenveen in the Eredivisie, as the home side looks to consolidate their spot in the Europa League qualification spots.

PEC Zwolle are experiencing a solid Eredivisie campaign so far this season and currently occupy fifth spot in the Dutch top-flight table. The home side are just six points ahead of the eighth-place visitors in the table.

John Van’t Schip’s side have suffered a dip in form of late in the Eredivisie, losing three of their last four league matches, including their last two league games against Vitesse and PSV Eindhoven.

The home side have had a big defensive problem of late, as they have now conceded two or more goals in four of their last five league games.

Their recent home record in the Eredivisie has also been poor, as they have won just one of their last five league games on home soil. The home side’s recent games on home soil have been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last six Eredivisie games.

A win for Heerenveen will move them into the Europa League play-off spots. The visitor’s league form has improved of late, as they have now won three of their last five games in the Eredivisie.

Last time out in the league, Jurgen Streppel’s team recorded a 1-0 win over Twente. The win ensured that they stayed in touch with the Eredivisie’s top seven.

Heerenveen’s recent away record in the Eredivisie is poor, as the visitors have won just one of their last seven games on their travels in the Dutch top-flight. They have also failed to win any of their last four games on their travels in the league.

Forebet predicts that Heerenveen will record a narrow victory and close the gap on the home side in the league table.
