SC Heerenveen form and stats

When playing at home in the Eredivisie, SC Heerenveen have managed 3 wins, 0 draws and suffered 4 defeats from 7 games.

Heerenveen's previous game was a Eredivisie match also played at home, ending 2-1 versus Willem II (placed 9th). The home side are looking to build on that result. Anthony Musaba was on the receiving end of a red card in the SC Heerenveen-Willem II match, being sent off in the 21st minute. The game was drawn at that point, but the home side still managed to pull off a 2-1 victory. Nick Bakker was "man of the match" with a rating of 8.0 out of 10. The defender Bakker scored one goal, hit two key passes and won 1 of 2 duels.

Preceding that match was the home game against Vitesse that was lost 1-2.

SC Heerenveen are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 7 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 13 goals have been conceded.
