Heracles won the second-division title last season and are battling to avoid returning instantly to Eerste Divisie. They are 14th with 23 points from 25 matches, only two points away from the relegation zone. The club even tried to make a positive boost by changing the coach before the New Year, but little to nothing has changed. They won only eight points in nine games under the new coach - 0.89 per game.
Go Ahead Eagles' results have improved since returning to the Netherlands' top-flight division. After finishing 13th and 11th in the previous years, they are playing one of the best seasons in a long time, as they currently hold 7th place with 37 points in 25 rounds. At this moment, they are in a solid position to battle for European Qualifiers but will have a challenging schedule in the remaining nine games. So, winning games against the relegation candidate is a must.
Heracles vs Go Ahead Eagles pick: Both teams to score
With 58 conceded goals in 25 rounds, Heracles have the second-worst defensive record in the league. At home, they are the only team without a clean sheet in 12 games, and it is really hard to expect they will keep their net intact. On the other side, even though they are in poor form, we believe they are capable of scoring at least once on their pitch. So far, they average 1.5 goals per game at Erve Asito Stadium and are nowhere as bad offensively as the other teams from the bottom of the league. Additionally, both teams scored in 75% of Heracle's home games and are the best team for this type of bet in the league.
Go Ahead Eagles have been pretty good offensively since the Winter break, as they scored at least a goal in eight of ten matches, and we believe they will score against the second-worst defense.
In the previous h2h game, Go Ahead Eagles won 4:0 at home, but Heracles had good chances to score. They had 62% ball possession and 1.43 xG, but were simply unlucky.
Considering all the above, we think that both teams to score is the best option for this tie.

Heracles team news
A starting right full-back, Jannes Wieckhoff, suffered an injury in the previous game vs Feyenoord and had to leave the field after 51 minutes. He will most likely be out, and we expect Navajo Bakboord to start as a replacement.
The players who missed the previous games with injuries will remain sidelined: Sava-Arangel Cestic, Lasse Wehmeyer, Nikolai Laursen, and Diego van Oorschot.
