Match preview: Waalwijk vs Heracles
Waalwijk and Heracles will meet at Mandemakers Stadion for their 28th round fixture in the Eredivisie. In their last encounter on 23 November 2024, the teams drew 2-2. Historically, Waalwijk holds an advantage in prior matches at this venue, recording 2 wins against 1 loss in the last 3 fixtures here.

Goals in that match came from Michiel Kramer (53′) for Waalwijk and Emil Hansson (35′) and Mario Engels (59′) for Heracles. The home advantage will be crucial in this match, especially given the stark differences in both teams’ results when playing at home and away.
Team analysis: Waalwijk
Currently sitting in 18th place, Waalwijk has accumulated 17 points from 4 wins, 6 draws, and 17 losses. In their second last match, they suffered a 2-0 defeat to PEC Zwolle. Most recently, they managed a 2-2 draw against AZ. The team has struggled away from home, having only achieved 1 win, 4 draws, and 10 losses in their last 30 matches as visitors, scoring 17 goals and conceding 34. In contrast, at home, they have recorded 5 wins, 2 draws, and 8 losses, scoring 24 times while conceding 25. Over their last 10 home matches in the league, Waalwijk has managed 3 wins, 2 draws, and 5 losses—garnering just 11 points from a possible 30. Defensively, they have been weak, conceding in 8 of their last 10 games, while their attack has found the net regularly in 7 of those matches. One notable trend is that 9 of their last 13 home outings have ended with more than 2.5 goals. In 27 league matches, they have conceded the first goal 20 times and have only managed to turn the match around on one occasion.
Waalwijk enters this fixture determined to leverage their home advantage to secure critical points in the ongoing relegation battle. To avoid slipping further down the table, they must improve their defensive stability, which has been lacking this season.
Team analysis: Heracles
Heracles currently finds themselves in 10th place in the league, with 31 points from 7 wins, 10 draws, and 10 losses. In their previous match, they drew 1-1 away at SC Heerenveen, followed by a 2-1 home victory against FC Twente. Like Waalwijk, they have shown a stronger performance at home, achieving 6 wins, 8 draws, and a solitary loss at home, scoring 28 goals while conceding 19. Meanwhile, as visitors, they have endured a challenging time with just 5 wins, 2 draws, and 8 defeats in the last 30 matches, adding up to 13 goals scored and 25 conceded. Their recent run shows only 1 victory, 2 draws, and 7 losses in their last 10 away matches in the league, collecting just 5 points from a possible 30. Defensively, they have also struggled, conceding goals in 9 of their last 10 encounters, yet their attack has managed to score in 8 out of the last 10 fixtures. In a total of 27 games played, they have conceded first on 10 occasions and have only turned the score around once.
Heracles Almelo aims to distance themselves from relegation concerns and enhance their standing in the league. Consistency in both attack and defence will be essential for them to achieve their desired objectives in the competition.
