Groningen vs Heerenveen Prediction

Groningen vs Heerenveen Betting Tips

After winning just one of their previous six Eredivisie games, ten-man Groningen was made to work hard for a gritty 1-0 away win at VVV-Venlo last weekend. They almost saw their slender advantage evaporate in stoppage-time, though Yahcuroo Roemer's stoppage-time equaliser was ruled out after VAR review. 

Azor Matusiwa, captain on the day, lasted just 20 minutes as he was given his marching orders for two first-half bookings. Key players Arjen Robben (muscle) and Ramon-Pascal Lundqvist (knock) remain sidelined with injuries, though they'll back themselves against a Heerenveen side even more inconsistent by comparison. 

Since a 1-0 win over Vitesse on February 6, Sunday's visitors have one win in seven Eredivisie games: 3-0 vs bottom side ADO Den Haag. 

Groningen vs Heerenveen Correct Score Prediction

Heerenveen leads the historical H2H (W7, D7, L4), but six of their last seven meetings have ended in draws. BTTS seems the safe bet, but I'm backing this weekend's hosts to emerge narrowly.
