Willem II vs Heracles prediction and betting tips on May 9, 2025
Game Prediction
A match between Willem II and Heracles will take place in the 32nd round of the Dutch Eredivisie on May 9, 2025. There is no tournament motivation: the hosts will definitely be relegated, and the guests will remain.
Our prediction for the match Willem II vs Heracles
The club from Tilburg was able to win the Eerste Divisie after a two-year stay there and return to the top division. The guests managed to get 33 points in 34 rounds in the Eredivisie in 2023/2024, but that was enough to take a safe 14th place.
Speaking about the current season, the newcomer turned out to be frankly toothless at a higher level. The only saving grace is that there are 2 even weaker teams, so it will be in 16th place, preparing to fight in the play-offs. It is remarkable that there were no victories in 2025, and there have been continuous defeats since mid-February. Only the struggle with NEC, which was held in the previous round, brought a draw. Van de Looi’s footballers managed to reach the semi-finals of the cup, where they lost only to AZ on penalties. Speaking about the Eredivisie, the club loses more often than it wins. However, both Groningen and Feyenoord beat the team in a crushing manner.
The outsider scores its goal per round. At the same time, 1.65 goals per meeting are conceded. Kulenovic and the company have got a slightly better ratio – 1.23/1.81.
