Best Tip: Willem II to win

As training goes on this week and the Willem II players prepare themselves for this clash, the bookmakers have predicted a victory for them. The odds and our pre-match stats below point in that direction too, as does the historical head-to-head (H2H) information we take advantage of in our predictive algorithms. The Willem Ii Stadion has rarely been an easy place to go for Heerenveen in the past, and we expect more of the same come Sunday afternoon. A win / draw / win home win is the way to go.
