Venue: Polman Stadion (13500 seats)

The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Heracles are in the 10th position while the guests worry at 14th.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

This pitch has artificial turf, which is not FC Emmen's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on artificial turf FC Emmen have performed like this: Played 15 matches resulting in 7 wins, 2 draws and 6 defeats with the goal stats 23-24 (scored/conceded).

Heracles form and stats

Heracles have played 4 Eredivisie games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 1-1-2 (wins-draws-losses).

In their previous game, the manager F. Wormuth led his Heracles to a defeat in the Eredivisie match away at AZ. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Polman Stadion. In the game before, an away victory match versus FC Twente with a 3-2 scoreline.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Heracles's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played one game, won 1 match, drawn 0 and lost 0.

The Heracles fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 5 in 4 matches. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Heracles with 8 goals conceded in these matches.

FC Emmen form and stats

No Eredivisie points yet away for FC Emmen, from their first 3 matches. Three consecutive losses in away matches means FC Emmen are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

FC Emmen are travelling after their nice 3-0 home win in the Eredivisie against ADO Den Haag (placed 16th). Ahead of that game was the 3-3 draw at home against Feyenoord.

The visitors have scored 2 goals from 3 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. The FC Emmen defense is as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle, having conceded 10 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

Heracles-FC Emmen H2H statistics last five meetings regardless of arena: Heracles 3 wins, FC Emmen 1 win, 1 draw. 2 of these five matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
