Preview
Willem II and Heracles face at Koning Willem II Stadion, in a match for the 32th round of the Eredivisie. In the last head‑to‑head for this edition of the league, played on 25‑08‑2024, these teams have tied (1‑1). The head‑to‑head history at this stadium, favours the home team, since in the last 3 head‑to‑heads they won 2 and lost 1. Nevertheless, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, for the Eerste Divisie, on 04‑11‑2022, Heracles Almelo won by (1‑2). J. Hornkamp (48' ) scored for Willem II and T. Bruns (90' ) and L. Schoofs (62' ) for Heracles. Heracles registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.

Analysis Willem II

The home team is currently in the 16th position of the league, with 24 points won, after 6 wins, 7 draws and 18 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Fortuna Sittard, by (1‑0). In the last match, they tied in an away match against NEC Nijmegen, by (1‑1). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses in away matches, with 12 goals scored and 27 conceded; against 3 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses at their stadium, with 18 goals scored and 23 conceded. For the league, Willem II won 5 points out of 30 possible points, after 1 win, 2 draws and 7 losses in the last 10 home matches.

They have lost the last 5 home matches for this competition. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 31 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 21 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Despite the recent 1-1 draw away from home, Willem II has been underperforming in the Eredivisie. The team has struggled to impose their rhythm on the pitch, regardless of the location of the matches, and has had a hard time converting created opportunities into goals. With a poor record so far, they will need to be more efficient in the final third if they want to overcome Heracles at home in this encounter.
 

Confirmed Lineup: Thomas Didillon, Rob Nizet, Erik Schouten, Tommy St Jago, Ringo Meerveld, Jesse Bosch, Boris Lambert, Amine Lachkar, Emilio Kehrer, Kyan Vaesen, Jeremy Bokila.
Coach: P. Maes.

Analysis Heracles

The away team is currently in the 12th position of the league, with 35 points won, after 8 wins, 11 draws and 12 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against FC Groningen, by (4‑1). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Feyenoord, by (1‑4). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 11 goals scored and 24 conceded; against 6 wins, 8 draws and 1 loss at their stadium, with 25 goals scored and 18 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Heracles has a record of 1 win, 3 draws and 6 losses, so they have won 6 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 31 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 12 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Losing heavily at home to Feyenoord has affected Heracles' mental state, and they will likely spare no effort to seek an immediate reaction in this round. The team is still not in a comfortable position in the league table, which further highlights the importance of earning points against Willem II, who also hasn't been in great form recently. With a focused performance and a determination not to repeat previous mistakes, they have a strong chance of returning home with valuable points.
 

Confirmed Lineup: Fabian De Keijzer, Ivan Mesik, M. Benita, Mats Rots, Damon Mirani, Brian De Keersmaecker, Thomas Bruns, Suf Podgoreanu, Jizz Hornkamp, Juho Talvitie, Luka Kulenović.
Coach: E. van de Looi.
