The last meeting between the sides in November ended in a 1-1 draw as 10-man Heerenveen conceded a late equaliser eight minutes from time.

Heerenveen Form

Heerenveen and in the midst of a slump in form that has seem them drop to eighth in the Eredivisie table.

Early season form has been replaced by a run of eight games without a win. They have lost four and drawn four during that time.

Having lost to 2-1 at home to Heracles and 3-0 away at Feyenoord, Johnny Jansen's side were beaten 3-1 at home to Fortuna Sittard on Sunday.

In what was their first game in three weeks, Heerenveen were 3-0 down inside 37 minutes against Fortuna Sittard. Henk Veerman's 10th goal of the season was nothing more than a consolation.
