Saturday's Eredivisie predictions including PEC Zwolle vs. Heerenveen

RKC Waalwijk vs. Go Ahead Eagles (Saturday, 5.45pm)

Go Ahead Eagles and RKC Waalwijk go head-to-head at the Mandemakers Stadion on Saturday in round seven of the 2021-22 Eredivisie season.

The teams head into the contest having lost their last two matches apiece and will both be looking to avoid a third consecutive defeat.

We say: RKC Waalwijk 2-1 Go Ahead Eagles

A clash between two struggling teams always represents a perfect opportunity for either of them to get back on track by claiming all three points. We are backing the home team to emerge victorious in this one at the end of 90 minutes.

In-form Willem II visit the Erve Asito on Saturday for their meeting against Heracles looking to record a fourth triumph on the bounce.

Meanwhile, the hosts will aim to continue their good streak on home turf where they have come out on top in each of the last two matches.

We say: Heracles 1-1 Willem II

Willem II are the more in-form team coming into the contest, and the onus will be more on them to take the fight to their hosts. However, Heracles have been solid in front of their fans of late, and we expect them to secure a point in what should be a keenly-contested affair.

PEC Zwolle vs. Heerenveen (Saturday, 7.00pm)

Still in search of their first win of the new campaign after seven rounds of matches, PEC Zwolle welcome Heerenveen to the Mac3Park Stadion on Saturday.

On the other hand, the visitors come into the contest off the back of consecutive defeats and will be looking to arrest this slump in form.

We say: PEC Zwolle 1-2 Heerenveen

Zwolle have found it hard to get going at both ends of the pitch and it is hard to see things changing this weekend. We predict that the visiting team will come away with all three points.

Sittard vs. NEC (Saturday, 8.00pm)

Two sides in desperate need of a lift face off in matchday eight of the Eredivisie season on Saturday when Fortuna Sittard play host to NEC.

The home side are yet to taste victory in any of their last five matches, while the visitors have only picked up one victory in that time.

We say: Fortuna Sittard 1-1 NEC

Both teams have struggled of late so we expect a nervy and cagey affair with the sides cancelling each other out and having to settle for a point apiece.
