Heracles vs Jong AZ Predictions and Top Odds
Heracles is all but assured of direct promotion to Eredivisie, but there is no time to waste when it comes to keeping the distance from the clubs that are in the vicinity of their position.
Over 3.5 Goals
If we are looking for a Heracles vs Jong AZ prediction that makes the most sense, then it’s about goalscoring. The young AZ team has played six straight matches with over 3.5 goals, and at the same time, there is no team in the Second Division who scored more goals than Heracles at 76. Heracles had 13 matches this season with more than three goals scored. When it comes to their h2h meetings there isn’t much relevant information as they only played once, this season with two goals in the back of the net.
Both Teams to Score – Yes
The only meeting between these teams ended with a 1-1 result, and as far as their recent form is concerned, Jong AZ had seven matches in a row with both teams scoring a goal. Heracles had two of those games in their last five outings. The young AZ Alkmaar team doesn’t have the pressure to get results, but they are a free-scoring team that provides a lot of excitement in that regard.
Half-Time Heracles
You won’t get much of an odds for a straight win for the home team in this Heracles vs Jong AZ duel, but the hosts leading after halftime is a different story. Heracles is the best home team in the league with ten wins to their credit, and are second in the overall standings with an eight-point lead over third-placed Almere City. Going for an early lead is something that Heracles is used to, especially against teams that are not all too focused on their defensive assignments.
Team Information, Heracles vs Jong AZ Lineups, and Preview
Heracles
The home team worked hard to get to a point in the season where they can relax a little bit, and look for the benefits of the total 18 wins they earned this term. There is still some work to be done, but their main objective has almost been completed as they are second in the standings which guarantees them a direct promotion to Eredivisie. Robin Polley is injured for the home team.
Jong AZ
The younger version of the AZ Alkmaar team averages just over 19 years old, and they are doing surprisingly well this season holding onto a top-eight position. They are not able to compete for promotion, but it is still worth noting that they are equal against some of the more senior squads in the Second Division. Sem Westerveld is injured while Nick Twisk won’t be able to play because of suspension.
